<p>Get your gauntleted hands on the Fuel Rod SPNKr, a new weapon for <em>Halo Infinite</em> based on an old Covenant favorite—now repurposed by the Banished.</p>



<p>Fashion your Spartan with the finest flair in the brand-new Operation Pass, a <em>vastly</em> expanded offering for the first Operation of each major Update that now brings 50 tiers of customization rewards. Give the enemy team back their bomb as the classic Assault mode returns, and that’s just the tip of the iceberg…</p>



<p>Let’s dive into what’s live in <em>Halo Infinite</em> today with the arrival of Operation: Frontlines.</p>

<p>It’s not just old Covenant technology that the Banished ravenously repurpose and reforge into their own tools of domination, but the UNSC’s as well.</p>



<p>Introducing the Fuel Rod SPNKr, a rocket launcher that has been heavily modified by the Banished and fires Venezian-repackaged fuel rod munitions.</p>



<p>The Fuel Rod SPNKr works great against vehicles—its six-shot magazine makes it effective against a wide range of targets.</p>



<p>You will be able to find the Fuel Rod SPNKr as a power weapon on maps, but if you want to get to grips with this new take on a Covenant classic you can jump into the Academy’s Training mode—or spawn it in Forge for some custom games.</p>

<p><em>Halo Infinite</em>’s Operation Pass has evolved!</p>



<p>After tracking community feedback about Operation Passes over the last year, we are exploring a new format for players to earn more customization goodness for even more value.</p>



<p>For the first Operation of each Update, there will be an expanded Premium Operation Pass which contains <strong><u>50 tiers</u></strong> of rewards and <strong><u>four full armor sets</u></strong>.</p>



<p>For the following two Operations in an Update, the Operation Passes will be the traditional 20-tier offering that players experienced in 2024.</p>



<p><strong>FREE PASS</strong></p>



<p>As before, if you’ve been enjoying the free Operation Pass, your experience is largely unchanged. During the time the Operation is live, you will be able to earn 20 tiers of free rewards, including one full armor set.</p>



<p><strong>PREMIUM PASS</strong></p>



<p>The price of the Premium Operation Pass has been slightly adjusted for this offering as it’s been expanded from 20 to 50 tiers, and from one complete armor set to four, providing the following options:</p>



<ul>
<li><strong>1,000 Credits:</strong> The Operation Pass is durable, offers bonus XP, provides an extra Challenge slot, and immediately gives you multiple bonus items. Provides the ability to earn four full armor sets.</li>



<li><strong>2,500 Credits:</strong> All of the above, and instantly unlocks the first 20 levels out of 50.</li>
</ul>



<p>The Premium Pass is only available for purchase during the time the Operation is live, and will no longer be available for purchase once that month-long window has closed. If you miss out on purchasing any Premium Operation Pass going forward but want the customization content it offered, you will be able to find it in the Shop at a later date (and at an adjusted price).</p>



<p>Likewise, the armor set from the Free Pass will flow into The Exchange and return at a later date where players will be able to acquire that armor with Spartan Points (earned simply by completing matches).</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>MODE: ASSAULT</strong></h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1920" height="1080" src="https://wpassets.halowaypoint.com/wp-content/2025/02/Assault_MOTD.jpg" alt="A Spartan with the Bomb from Assault flanked by two Spartans running" class="wp-image-129252" srcset="https://wpassets.halowaypoint.com/wp-content/2025/02/Assault_MOTD.jpg 1920w, https://wpassets.halowaypoint.com/wp-content/2025/02/Assault_MOTD-300x169.jpg 300w, https://wpassets.halowaypoint.com/wp-content/2025/02/Assault_MOTD-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://wpassets.halowaypoint.com/wp-content/2025/02/Assault_MOTD-768x432.jpg 768w, https://wpassets.halowaypoint.com/wp-content/2025/02/Assault_MOTD-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://wpassets.halowaypoint.com/wp-content/2025/02/Assault_MOTD-1568x882.jpg 1568w" sizes="(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px" /></figure>



<p>The Assault mode—a fan-favorite since <em>Halo 2</em>—is en route to <em>Halo Infinite</em>!</p>



<p>Each team defends their bomb site as they battle over a neutral bomb in the center of the map, aiming to escort the intrepid and heroic bomb carrier to the enemy base to arm and detonate it.</p>



<p>Of course, Assault is a mode that comes with multiple variants as well. When it arrives with the Spring Update, you’ll be able to play both Neutral Bomb and One Bomb.</p>



<p>For more information on this returning mode, <strong><a href="https://www.halowaypoint.com/news/assault" data-type="link" data-id="https://www.halowaypoint.com/news/assault">head over to our Assault Playlist blog!</a></strong></p>

<p>The goal is to get from point A to point B without losing your hat to the sniper in the middle of the ring. Dodge, duck, dip, dive, and dodge your way to the end!</p>

<p>This deceptively easy mode has you driving a Mongoose along a narrow path that curves around in a large circle. The catch? You’re going to be dodging SPNKr rounds from the player that is “it” so don’t fall off the edge. Get on your Mongoose and ride!</p>

<p>If you’ve played a certain popular free-for-all game where the goal is to avoid falling over, then you’ve likely played Hex-A-Gone before. As you walk across each tile, it’ll fall so hop from tile to tile, avoid falling to the next level as long as you can. Think “the floor is lava” style.</p>

<p>It’s a maze so you’re bound to get turned around and lost but that’s okay. There is no prize or goal at the center…you’re just avoiding the Spartan with the Gravity Hammer and trying to be the last one standing.</p>

HCS Off-Season 2024

Brute Force Operation Launch


<p>When it was introduced to matchmaking in <em>Halo 5</em>, Castle Wars quickly became a fan favorite. The large-scale assault on the enemy’s base to grab the flag led to high-risk, high reward plays that kept us all coming back for more.</p>



<p>And that’s why we’re excited to see Castle Wars added to <em>Halo Infinite</em>!</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading has-huge-font-size"><strong>THE BASE-ICS</strong></h2>



<p>It’s an amped up version of 8v8 Capture the Flag that necessitates your team breaking through the defenses of the opponent’s heavily fortified castles.</p>



<p>Grab their flag and make your way back to your base to score while dodging the oncoming horde of enemy Spartans.</p>



<p>Everyone is equipped with an Energy Sword and a Grappleshot. As a bonus, you can use your Grapple while holding the Flag, so beware the sneaky fly-bys.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading has-huge-font-size"><strong>MY KINGDOM FOR A CASTLE</strong></h2>



<p>You can’t have Castle Wars without the castles, so let’s check out the fortresses you’ll be assaulting! Also, huge thank you to erickyboo for creating the mode and one or two of the maps.</p>
