Actor Bruce Thomas has confirmed on Twitter that he is returning as Master Chief's motion capture actor in Halo Infinite. Previously, Thomas has performed as Chief in both Halo 4 and Halo 5: Guardians, so it's not surprising to see him embody the role of Spartan 117 once more.

Thomas has brought a ton of nuance and personality to Master Chief over the years with his motion capture acting, and I imagine that most Halo fans will be ecstatic to hear that he's returning.
This announcement came a day after official gameplay of Halo Infinite was shown off, giving fans a closer look at some of the awesome environments players would get to explore as well as some of Master Chief's new combat abilities.
