Summary
Halo Infinitehas added a helmet and helmet visor inspired by Paramount’s TV show. One of theHalo Infiniteitems can be obtained by simply logging in, while the other will require some more playtime.
Recently,Halo Infinitelaunched a significant updatethat added a new operation, arena map, forge features, and more. The new map, Illusion, is a unique stage that features a camo-inducing central hallway, which allows for interesting gameplay opportunities. Its level designers described it as a “love letter” toHalo: Combat Evolved’s map design, which featured similarly unique levels. Going into the future, it seems thatHalo Infinitewill be making more references to other parts of theHalofranchise.
Halo Infinitereleased two items based on theHaloshow’s Riz-028 character. Her reddish helmet visor can be unlocked by simply logging intoHalo Infiniteand her helmet can be unlocked by completing this week’s ultimate challenge, which runs from February 6th to February 13th.

Halo Infinite Adds Riz’s Helmet and Helmet Visor From Halo TV Show
Last week, players could earn Kai-125’s helmet as well by completing that week’s ultimate challenge. However, the free offer is no longer available. ManyHalofans who didn’t enjoy the show’s controversial first season are hoping thatHaloseason 2 will be an improvement. Master Chief actor Pablo Schreiber seemed to encourage this possibility by explaining thatHaloseason 2 features plenty of changesfrom the previous season. Regardless of the show’s quality, manyHalofans are probably excited to be receiving free new helmets to unlock.
Halo Infinite’s references to other parts of the franchise don’t end there, as the previously mentioned Illusion map features asecret room that’s packed withHaloeaster eggs. Users can also access a drivable forklift on Illusion by collecting various ONI tags around the map during an Infection match, with the forklift being another callback to previousHalogames.
In much more surprisingHalonews, it seems thatHalogames might be going cross-platformin the future after numerous leaks claimed that Xbox is planning a big change in strategy. Reportedly, many of Xbox’s previously exclusive franchises will release on PlayStation in an effort to increase profits. Insiders claim that Xbox has struggled recently due to underwhelming hardware sales and Game Pass' massive costs.
