Halo Infinite

Halo Gear Rewards are back for Halo Infinite’s Season 5: Reckoning!



Halo Gear Rewards is a program that celebrates players for completing specific in-game accomplishments by unlocking access to purchase exclusive limited-edition products in the Halo Gear Shop.



The first reward was introduced in Season 2: Lone Wolves with the amazing Fracture: Entrenched Tanker Jacket and was followed by the introduction of the Pin Program with Season 3: Echoes Within Pins.

For Season 5, we are introducing a new earnable reward that might just come in handy when carrying around all those previously earned rewards.



Meet the Halo Tactical Carrier—this UNSC-style backpack is mission ready and designed with utility in mind. The Tactical Carrier has three primary compartments, reinforced straps and carry handle, and sufficient nylon and Velcro areas for attaching pins, patches, and other insignia. 



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1920" height="1080" src="https://wpassets.halowaypoint.com/wp-content/2023/10/HI_CP_Backpack_watermarked_1920x1080-65248b0b1fddd.jpg" alt="The prototype of the Tactical Carrier backpack." class="wp-image-82903" srcset="https://wpassets.halowaypoint.com/wp-content/2023/10/HI_CP_Backpack_watermarked_1920x1080-65248b0b1fddd.jpg 1920w, https://wpassets.halowaypoint.com/wp-content/2023/10/HI_CP_Backpack_watermarked_1920x1080-65248b0b1fddd-300x169.jpg 300w, https://wpassets.halowaypoint.com/wp-content/2023/10/HI_CP_Backpack_watermarked_1920x1080-65248b0b1fddd-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://wpassets.halowaypoint.com/wp-content/2023/10/HI_CP_Backpack_watermarked_1920x1080-65248b0b1fddd-768x432.jpg 768w, https://wpassets.halowaypoint.com/wp-content/2023/10/HI_CP_Backpack_watermarked_1920x1080-65248b0b1fddd-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://wpassets.halowaypoint.com/wp-content/2023/10/HI_CP_Backpack_watermarked_1920x1080-65248b0b1fddd-1568x882.jpg 1568w" sizes="(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px" /></figure>



Players can earn access to purchase the Tactical Carrier by completing the 50-tier Premium Battle Pass. Upon completion, players will receive their unique code via Waypoint notifications to make their purchase in the Halo Gear Shop.



Speaking of patches, players who complete the Reckoning Battle Pass will also earn the Reckoning Insignia Patch. This embroidered patch will be included with the purchase of the Tactical Carrier backpack.



But wait, there’s more! Players will also have the option to add-on the Operation: Combined Arms Patch and the Operation: Winter Contingency III Patch for an additional cost. There is no need to complete specific Operations to access these patches.

The Halo Tactical Carrier can be unlocked for purchase through the duration of Season 5: Reckoning and Operations: Combined Arms and Winter Contingency. Purchases must be made by January 29, 2024.

Season 4 of Halo Infinite has arrived, bringing with it a new collection of Intel—a series of data drops that provide some additional lore and context to elements of each season.



Intel can be found here on Halo Waypoint and in-game in Halo Infinite‘s message of the day carousel.



This blog will be updated over the course of Season 4 with new Intel.

But there is so much more to see!



The entire history of the Spartan program. Your weaknesses. Your failures. And now all of it belongs to the Banished!



Oh, I shall enjoy every moment of its categorization. So much of your strength is tied to the armor you wear like a second skin. What happens when it is taken away? No… what happens when it is turned against you?



And so many of you here—ah, survivors of the Apparition’s burning wrath, are you? A new generation of heroes to forge a brighter future for your kind. Such delicious naivety!



Know this as you struggle in vain against the inevitable: I shall see you ALL unravel in body and spirit. I shall disseminate every secret held within this facility and within your minds. And the Banished shall feast upon what remains.



Take a look in the mirror, my little Spartans. Thralls of Iratus. Think how much better you’re going to look wearing my face.

When we were inducted into the Covenant, the Prophets had us settled on worlds ripe with rich resources. Was this out of respect for our people—a reward for our strength? No. It was simply another way in which we served as a method of their control. A blunt instrument for delicate hands. A deterrent to those who would claim more than what the Prophets would allow. And they knew we could not excavate these resources ourselves, for we were nothing but fodder to be expended on their front lines.



But look around you, brothers. Savor this moment. Understand what we are now. We are the Banished, and we are free. We take what we desire, and we use it to fuel our strength and sustain our spirit.



Never forget what Atriox gave to you. Know that all we are today is because of his vision.

Back in ‘57, we had the quantum marker—or the MX-1050. Cool piece of ONI tech that we got to play with in some sims before they had the Infinity jump back to Requiem; used it to transport crates from the ship down to research bases. They wanted to drop and gain a foothold in enemy-occupied territory quick and hard, but then we start fighting these Forerunner robots that can zip around the place and suddenly we got a bunch of eggheads workin’ overtime to repurpose the tech to put it on actual people…



I dunno what kinda magic tricks they managed to pull, but the damn thing works! Heard ‘em talkin’ about puttin’ this “Quantum Translocator” on Spartans in the field. Ain’t worked up the courage yet to volunteer for further trials, not since ol’ Haverly was gone for three hours during a test run and came back all pale and shakin’ and refused to say a word about what happened. Tried to calm him down but he just wouldn’t stop crying.



Come to think of it, haven’t seen him in a while…

DR. CATHERINE HALSEY, RESEARCH NOTES – 2544



Operation: GREY VEIL was a success, but cost the life of Cal-141, who died from head trauma sustained from a Jiralhanae gravity hammer. We have thus far sustained only a few Spartan casualties as this war with the Covenant approaches its second decade, but strategically each one feels akin to losing an entire world.



The ODST squad that accompanied SPARTAN-141 did, however, return something fascinating. Surveying the ruins on Heian, they discovered evidence of an ancient civilization with architectural designs that I can only describe as unmistakably human—a strange mixture of Greco-Roman and East Asian elements… yet even the most cursory analysis tells us that these ruins far predate those periods in our history, and they were certainly not built with simple stone to have been preserved for so long.



We came to the stars and wondered about alien life, yet these ruins force us to consider whether there might be improbable things about our own past that lie beyond our knowledge. Alas, no further research on Heian is possible due to the Covenant’s presence, and with Miridem under attack it’s not likely that we’ll get to look any deeper into this.

With the release of Season 5: Reckoning on October 17, some of Halo Infinite’s content and engagement vectors are evolving versus what’s been offered in the game thus far. Today, we’d like to get you up to speed on changes you’ll find with the Battle Pass and in-game “Events” (transitioning into “Operations”) once the new season is live.



Overall, content is being delivered in a tighter, more efficient manner with a greater emphasis on moving the community forward together through the same content within the same windows of time.



<hr class="wp-block-separator"/>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">BATTLE PASS, EVOLVED</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><a href="https://wpassets.halowaypoint.com/wp-content/2023/10/S5Armors.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1920" height="1080" src="https://wpassets.halowaypoint.com/wp-content/2023/10/S5Armors.jpg" alt="Halo Infinite image of three Spartans in Season 5 armor" class="wp-image-82715" srcset="https://wpassets.halowaypoint.com/wp-content/2023/10/S5Armors.jpg 1920w, https://wpassets.halowaypoint.com/wp-content/2023/10/S5Armors-300x169.jpg 300w, https://wpassets.halowaypoint.com/wp-content/2023/10/S5Armors-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://wpassets.halowaypoint.com/wp-content/2023/10/S5Armors-768x432.jpg 768w, https://wpassets.halowaypoint.com/wp-content/2023/10/S5Armors-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://wpassets.halowaypoint.com/wp-content/2023/10/S5Armors-1568x882.jpg 1568w" sizes="(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px" /></a></figure>



Since the initial launch, Halo Infinite seasons have featured a 100-tier Battle Pass which offers various rewards and unlocks across both free and premium tracks. Season 5 will once again offer a Battle Pass full of unlockable content, but the way it’s packaged will be more streamlined than prior seasons.



The Season 5 Battle Pass is comparable to what’s been offered in prior seasons in terms of breadth of content, but now consists of 50 total tiers. Thanks to some improvements with our game systems, we can now include multiple content items in a single tier of the pass. Historically, the Battle Pass may offer a Coating for each Armor Core—represented as individual separate offers across separate tiers. With Season 5, you’ll see a Coating offered in a single tier, and it will work and apply to every Armor Core in the game.



Similarly, rather than having to unlock a left and right shoulder across two separate tiers of your pass, in Season 5, you’ll unlock a full set in a single tier. Being able to consolidate this type of multi-use content into a single tier has resulted in a much tighter, more efficient pass that will net you more content with less grinding. And speaking of grinding, you’ll be able to progress your Battle Pass via Match XP by playing the experiences you want to play (including an all-new Custom Game XP system) in addition to supplemental progression via Challenges.



GO PREMIUM



The Premium Battle Pass will still cost 1,000 credits and will still include 1,000 credits to be unlocked across its 50 tiers. The Premium Pass will still include an extra challenge slot and bonus XP while it’s active, and once purchased it never expires. And, similar to Season 4, the Premium Pass will include an exclusive instant-unlock bonus customization item with purchase (more on that closer to launch!)



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><a href="https://wpassets.halowaypoint.com/wp-content/2023/10/FloodSpartan.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="2560" height="1440" src="https://wpassets.halowaypoint.com/wp-content/2023/10/FloodSpartan-scaled.jpg" alt="Halo Infinite screenshot of a Spartan clad in Flood-infected customization wielding a M247H machine gun" class="wp-image-82673" srcset="https://wpassets.halowaypoint.com/wp-content/2023/10/FloodSpartan-scaled.jpg 2560w, https://wpassets.halowaypoint.com/wp-content/2023/10/FloodSpartan-300x169.jpg 300w, https://wpassets.halowaypoint.com/wp-content/2023/10/FloodSpartan-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://wpassets.halowaypoint.com/wp-content/2023/10/FloodSpartan-768x432.jpg 768w, https://wpassets.halowaypoint.com/wp-content/2023/10/FloodSpartan-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://wpassets.halowaypoint.com/wp-content/2023/10/FloodSpartan-2048x1152.jpg 2048w, https://wpassets.halowaypoint.com/wp-content/2023/10/FloodSpartan-1568x882.jpg 1568w" sizes="(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px" /></a></figure>



FREE FOR ALL



The free content in the Battle Pass has also been streamlined to span the first 20 tiers of the pass. This free content is similar to prior seasons and will take players less gameplay to unlock. In general, as you’ll see further below with our approach to “Operations,” our intent is for in-game engagement tracks to include 20 tiers of free rewards.



The free Battle Pass will be available until the new “Operation” begins (more on this below!) and will be denoted in the game UI. Season 5’s free Battle Pass will be active until November 14, 2023. Upon expiration, the 20 free tiers of content will no longer be available to unlock if you haven’t already completed those tiers. Players who would like to finish the pass beyond the stated cut-off date, or decide they want the additional 30 tiers of content, can purchase the Premium Pass in the shop at any point. When the free Battle Pass period ends, players will permanently keep all of the free content they’ve unlocked prior to the cut-off date.



SEASON 5 BATTLE PASS TL;DR:



<ul><li>Overall pass is tighter with better-quality content</li><li>Play the way you want! Progress your pass with Match XP (Matchmaking or Custom Games)</li><li>50 total tiers (includes 20 tiers of free content newly streamlined with a similar breadth of content offered in a more efficient manner)</li><li>Premium Pass:<ul><li>Costs 1,000 credits</li><li>Includes 1,000 earnable credits over the course of completing the Premium Battle Pass</li><li>Includes exclusive instant bonus customization item</li><li>Includes an extra challenge slot and Bonus XP when activated</li><li>Never expires; yours to keep and complete at your leisure</li><li>Available for purchase in the Shop at any point after season launch</li></ul></li><li>Free Pass:<ul><li>20 tiers of content</li><li>Availability and access expires on November 13 with the start of a new Operation</li><li>Can be converted to Premium at any time</li></ul></li></ul>



Overall, our hope is that by streamlining the pass and fitting more, high-quality content into fewer tiers, we’re able to reduce friction and make it more obtainable to more players. Additionally, a smaller time commitment coupled with even greater value content hopefully presents a better incentive for players considering a premium upgrade.



The shorter expiration window for the free pass is perhaps one of the biggest changes, but our hope is that providing more content across fewer tiers will offset any potential time pressure. Further, we hope to be able to move the bulk of Halo Infinite’s players forward together, experiencing the same new content at the same time.

Since launch, Halo Infinite has featured numerous “Events” which offer free earnable, themed rewards during a specific window of time. While we have enjoyed playing events and earning cool content, we’ve heard feedback that they often feel too limiting (short windows that may not align with player availability) and once they’re gone, there’s no way to ever obtain that content again.



With Season 5, we’re evolving to “Operations” which are similar to “Events” in spirit but brings a few specific changes we want you to be aware of.



One big thing that’s NOT changing: Operations, like Events before them, will continue to launch as totally free activities. Each Operation will include 20 tiers of free unlockable rewards that can be progressed at your leisure over the specified duration of the Operation.



Unlike prior seasonal Events, a typical Operation will run for approximately 4 to 6 weeks, and the reward track is available to progress and unlock for the entire stated duration. All players will have more time to progress and obtain rewards compared to the old Events system. Like the Season 5 Battle Pass and prior seasons’ Events, when the Operation comes to an end, access to the free Operation Pass goes away and players won’t be able to unlock any further reward tiers (unless they have opted into the Premium Operation offer described below). When a free Operation pass ends, players will retain all of the earned content they’ve unlocked up to that point regardless of whether they choose to go premium.



An Operation will always offer 20 tiers of free earnable rewards, but for players who choose to go premium a few additional options are available. First, players may choose to upgrade an active Operation for 500 credits, which will instantly unlock an exclusive bonus customization item while also making the Operation pass durable (it will not expire) and, when equipped, offers bonus XP and an extra challenge slot during the Operation’s live window.



A second premium option for 2,000 credits instantly unlocks all 20 tiers at purchase as a convenience and additionally includes the exclusive bonus customization item.



To directly address player feedback and provide more flexibility, an Operation won’t disappear forever once it concludes. Once an active Operation has ended, the Operation pass be purchased at any point thereafter via the Switcher or Shop (for both the 500 and 2,000 credits instant-unlock offer).



The way you progress an Operation is also changing compared to how Events used to run. Historically, players had to focus on completing challenges as the only means of unlocking the 10 tiers of free content. Starting with Season 5, Operations progression is based on Match XP so you can play whatever playlist you want (even Custom Games) and make progress across 20 tiers. Challenges are still there as another source of XP for players on top of Match XP.

Forge Features: October 6, 2023

Arno Kiss x Tenrai - Community Submissions

September comes to a close with a celebration of some Halo birthdays (namely Halo 3, Halo 3: ODST, and Halo: Reach) to make us all feel old…



But do not fear the unceasing passage of time because we’re about to head into October which means we are just a few short weeks away from the 2023 Halo World Championship and the launch of Season 5 of Halo Infinite.



Before then, let us look back on the month that has come and gone in a blink of an eye. It’s time to dive into the latest edition of the Community Update!

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">HALO INFINITE</h2>



HUSKY RAID RETURNS



The Husky Raid playlist has returned, and it now includes the Super Husky Raid mode featuring the special weapon variants from the Halo Infinite campaign which make for an even more chaotic time.



The Husky Raid playlist will remain in matchmaking without a rotation date for now, however, the team will be monitoring its population and feedback.

Tenrai III is live in Halo Infinite, running until October 3, which means you still have plenty of time to jump in and complete your free 10-tier Event Pass, which features the new Hatamoto helmet.



Oh, and did we mention that there are eight new community-created maps for you to play on in the Tenrai Social playlist, featuring ninja-styled variants of Slayer, King of the Hill, Strongholds, and other modes?



Jump in, complete Event Challenges to level up that YOROI armor drip, and study the art of the blade!

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">THE ARTIST’S CORNER</h2>



This month’s Artist’s Corner piece, naturally, was chosen in celebration of Halo 3’s sixteenth birthday.



Illustrated by Leonid Kozienko for Halo Mythos, this piece depicts the Master Chief, Arbiter Thel ‘Vadam, Sergeant Major Avery Johnson, and 343 Guilty Spark at the start of Halo 3’s final mission—on approach to the control room of Installation 08 where they intend to activate the ring to destroy the local Flood forces that have traveled outside the galaxy (thus ensuring that this installation’s firing does not set off the other rings).

Perhaps you fondly recall the first time you played through this mission, be it by yourself or with your friends or family. For me, I am instantly transported back to 2008 when the Vidmaster: Annual achievement went live (exactly a year after the game’s launch)—a challenge that would otherwise reward you with zero gamerscore, but was one of your first steps on the road to unlocking that coveted Recon armor.



I vividly recall getting to the top of the control room by use of strategic Brute Shot grenade jumps, trying to keep everyone together in the Ghosts, the countless checkpoint restarts when one of us got a little overconfident… and the relief of making it to the end, the achievement popping for everyone as we escaped extragalactic space.



Incredible, unforgettable times. Happy birthday, Halo 3!



<hr class="wp-block-separator"/>



Do you feel it? October is coming, which means crunchy autumn leaves on the ground, crisp and cold morning air, peak pumpkin spice latte season, and an unforgettable time of more Halo to come.



Champions shall be crowned, seasonal updates installed, and good times all around! We’ll see you on the other side.

As the Tenrai universe is one that offers some incredibly compelling aesthetics, we kept this event’s Story Shard cooking a little while longer to support it with some new bespoke artwork from two of our esteemed artists and honorable warriors—William “Pixelflare” Cameron and Duncan Shaffer.



This Story Shard takes the form of a retelling of “The Duel,” an episode from Halo Legends that became a cautionary tale for the Sangheili, as Arbiter Fal ‘Chavamee defied the Covenant and was made an example of, as the role of Arbiter was twisted from a position of honor into a mark of shame.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">TENRAI TALENT</h2>



What’s better than Tenrai III Art? That’s right… more Tenrai III Art!



We have collaborated with the talented <a rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://www.arno-kiss.com/" target="_blank">Arno Kiss, illustrator and creator</a>, on a piece inspired by Tenrai III’s event rewards.
