Halo Infinite will feature a free-to-play multiplayer mode alongside its traditional campaign (which won't be free). The game will also launch without its Forge mode, which will be added around six months after Halo Infinite's initial release, and co-op in the campaign mode, which you're getting a little sooner at around three months post-launch. Unlike previous Halo entries, the multiplayer component of the game will be free-to-play for everyone, regardless of whether you buy Halo Infinite or not. It'll star Master Chief as the sole playable protagonist and will focus on Chief's conflict with the Brute-led mercenary faction known as the Banished.
HALO INFINITE INITIAL RELEASE DATE SERIES
Halo Infinite is the sixth main-series Halo entry and the sixteenth game in the series as a whole.
We don't know what form the DLC will take just yet, but we'll likely learn more about this ahead of Halo Infinite's December 8th release date. This number was subsequently updated to four, suggesting that a Halo Infinite DLC or season pass announcement could be imminent. According to the Italian platform, Halo Infinite "got three new 'dlcs' over the last few hours". In addition to spotting the Early Access listing, Aggiornamenti Lumia also revealed a sliver of information regarding Halo Infinite DLC. Image courtesy of Aggiornamenti Lumia on Twitter. Looks like some people will be playing Halo Infinite before it launches. It's possible this Halo Infinite Early Access bundle will take a similar form. Since that component will be free-to-play, Microsoft could be bundling some extras in to entice players to spend on the mode in a similar strategy to what the company is doing with Forza Horizon 5. If you're a Game Pass subscriber, you can pick up the Premium Add-Ons Bundle for Forza Horizon 5, which includes expansions, extra cars, and access to the game a few days prior to launch. As we await a more concrete release date on co-op, stay tuned for more updates here at Shacknews.This Early Access bundle could be a chance for players to test out the Halo Infinite multiplayer mode. Halo Infinite was good for what it offered in its initial release, but there are still likely many out hoping to play the story and experience the open world with friends. Where Season 2 begins on and co-op was supposed to launch with it, 343 Industries is now targeting a launch later on in the Season, not planning on delaying it back to Season 3 when Forge mode should launch.
This will mark another delay for campaign co-op on Halo Infinite after Season 1 was extended as developers continued work on content for Season 2 (and yet another if one counts Forge and co-op modes being delayed out of the initial release). We’re also committed to a great 2-player split-screen co-op experience on all Xbox consoles, from the original Xbox One through Xbox Series X-and the non-linear, wide-open sections of the Campaign present some big challenges for split-screen that have taken us more time to solve.” ~ Halo Infinite head of creative Joseph Staten Halo Infinite's sprawling open world and deep narrative is proving harder to adapt into a co-op experience than 343 expected. “The reality is that it’s going to take more time to land a high-quality, full-featured 4-player network co-op experience in the massive, wide-open world of Halo Infinite. According to the post, 343 Industries still needs time to properly prepare Halo Infinite’s co-op experience. The 343 Industries devs made the announcement of Halo Infinite campaign co-op’s further delay in a Waypoint post on March 4, 2022. In fact, campaign co-op was supposed to arrive in the Season 2 launch date of Halo, but a recent announcement from 343 Industries says co-op won’t be ready by the time the season arrives. Campaign co-op and Forge mode are still in development and waiting to be released. While there was a lot to love about 343 Industries’ Halo Infinite, there are still some key pieces missing from the experience.
