<h2 class="wp-block-heading">KEYBOARDS</h2>



Higround’s limited-edition Halo: Combat Evolved 25th Anniversary gear series unleashes a trio of elite gaming keyboards armored in retro art honoring the legendary Spartans of 2001. With three designs to choose from, there’s something to evolve everyone’s game.



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">SNIPER EVOLVED</h3>

<h4 class="wp-block-heading">About the Basecamp 96+</h4>



Higround’s new 96% keyboard features a num pad for added utility, without sacrificing a relatively compact form factor.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">25 YEARS OF HALO</h2>



Our partnership with Higround marks the exciting start of our 25th Anniversary Halobration! Look out for reminiscences, retrospectives, and more tributes to the mighty Master Chief all throughout next year, along with new details on Halo: Campaign Evolved.

Halo x Higround Anniversary PC Gear

Fireteam Osiris, the light is green!



It has been ten years since Spartan Locke sent Fireteam Osiris to Kamchatka, thus setting in motion the events of Halo: 5 Guardians.



We’re celebrating in Halo Infinite by bringing some fan-favorite armor sets to the Exchange and bringing back the new, unique mode, Extermination.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Anniversary Armors</h2>



If you’ve banked enough Spartan Points, you’ll be able to grab these sets as soon as they drop out of slipspace. If not, fear not – they will be available from the Exchange so you may obtain them at your leisure. (Or you can grab them from the Shop if you prefer that route.)

<ul>
<li> Hunter: Savvy Spartans choose HUNTER technology for its customizable interfaces, a puissant surveillance suite, and dependable maneuverability in hand-to-hand sparring.</li>



<li>Helljumper: Thanks to innovative field upgrades by Cascade Stronghold Technologies, testbed HELLJUMPER armor can reliably endure the atmospheric rigors expected of GEN3 Mjolnir.</li>



<li>Copperhead: When it comes to building interspecies alliances, COPPERHEAD armor has consistently proven its merits for both kinetic diplomacy and charm offensives.</li>



<li>Shinobi: Though the design’s origins remain obscure, the undisclosed reasons behind its approved use among Spartans of the UNSC may prove even more unknowable.</li>
</ul>



<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Exacting Extermination</h1>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="576" src="https://wpassets.halowaypoint.com/wp-content/2025/10/Extermination_Playlist_AST_1920x1080_Clean-1024x576.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-153836" srcset="https://wpassets.halowaypoint.com/wp-content/2025/10/Extermination_Playlist_AST_1920x1080_Clean-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://wpassets.halowaypoint.com/wp-content/2025/10/Extermination_Playlist_AST_1920x1080_Clean-300x169.jpg 300w, https://wpassets.halowaypoint.com/wp-content/2025/10/Extermination_Playlist_AST_1920x1080_Clean-768x432.jpg 768w, https://wpassets.halowaypoint.com/wp-content/2025/10/Extermination_Playlist_AST_1920x1080_Clean-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://wpassets.halowaypoint.com/wp-content/2025/10/Extermination_Playlist_AST_1920x1080_Clean-1568x882.jpg 1568w, https://wpassets.halowaypoint.com/wp-content/2025/10/Extermination_Playlist_AST_1920x1080_Clean.jpg 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



We’re all familiar with Team Slayer where it’s 4v4 and you score a point for each kill on the opponent’s team. And first team to 50 points, wins the match. Extermination is the same at the very basics: 4v4 and you gotta kill the enemy. But you’re not trying to get to 50 kills.



The Goal: 



Eliminate all members of the enemy team at once.



Super simple right? If you can kill the entire enemy team before anyone respawns, you win the round.



Were it so easy.



So what’s the catch? If a player can stay alive long enough for their teammates to respawn, the round continues. You’ll have a 15 second respawn between each death. And for the record: this goes by fast when you’re hunting that last elusive Spartan but somehow seems to last an eternity when you’re desperately evading, trying to let your teammate respawn.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Combat Components</h2>



Alright let’s get the lowdown before you throwdown:



<ul>
<li>Short, two-minute rounds</li>



<li>First to win five rounds, wins</li>



<li>Teams swap sides after each round</li>



<li>Round ends at time or when an entire team is on respawn</li>



<li>Ties can occur when no team was Exterminated before timer runs out</li>



<li>If three ties occur, the team with the most points wins</li>
</ul>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Strategic Spaces</h2>

Operation: Haloween II Now Undead

<h2 class="wp-block-heading has-huge-font-size" style="text-transform:uppercase">Update: October 7, 2025</h2>



The nightmare returns. Back from the grave and more gruesome than ever, Survive the Undead claws its way back into Halo Infinite. First introduced last Haloween, the Forge Falcons’ labor of love made the jump from Combat Workshop to playlist just in time for the spooktacular season. And now, it’s back with a new map!



<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Strategic Survival</h1>



At its core, Survive the Undead is an Infection-based Firefight survival mode where you, the player, are trying to avoid dying. However, unlike the “regular” Infection modes you may be thinking of where everyone is looking out for themselves, you are in a team of 4 trying to survive the onslaught of infected enemies. Think of it as a horde mode. You can learn the finer points and read more about how this playlist came to be down below.  



The return of the playlist, as part of the Operation: Haloween II offering, comes with everything you know and love from before and adds one brand new map:



<h2 class="wp-block-heading has-large-font-size" style="text-transform:uppercase">Station of the Lost</h2>

By now, we all know what Infection is. You vs the horde that’s trying to infect you so you become one of them. Usually round based, the game ends once all Spartans are infected or until there’s a lone survivor able to fend off the constant attacks.



Survive the Undead puts a slight twist on the typical Infection and makes it a more linear experience. And, as the name implies, the idea is to beat the waves of infected and simply survive as long as you can. The rounds start off simple and get progressively more difficult, with points awarded for each round cleared and each kill. Spend your earned points wisely…or go ham on the mystery box (my personal favorite – who doesn’t love surprises?) and then regroup and get ready for the next round!

WEAPON UPGRADE MACHINE



The Weapon Upgrade Machine has received an overhaul since the combat workshop, it will now take the weapon you have and upgrade that weapon with other combinations. It costs 1,000 points and can be found in the spawn room on all maps. It will also have the ‘Upgrade’ nav marker.



WEAPON & EQUIPMENT WALL BUYS



Wall buys offer weapons or equipment at displayed prices. Ammo can be refilled via the ammunition wall buy, the Mounted & Loaded drop, or by rebuying the weapon.

In the Combat Workshop, there was only one map available to you. Now that the playlist has hit the big time, there are multiple options in the playlist:



<ul>
<li>Installation of the Dead</li>



<li>Night of the Undead</li>



<li>Countdown of the Dead</li>
</ul>



Squad up, watch each other’s backs, and maybe you’ll survive the undead.

Survive the Undead

Play Halo Infinite now through October 7.

Operation: Warpath Now Live

Unstoppable force, meet immovable object. (At least, if you’re on defense you really hope you can embody that immovable object spirit.) It’s tactical, it’s intense, and it’s got just enough Halo: Reach DNA to make longtime fans feel right at home… Invasion has arrived!



<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">

</div></figure>



Whether you’re storming the gates or desperately trying to keep them shut, Invasion turns every match into a showdown of Spartan grit and glorious chaos.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading has-large-font-size">OBJECTIVE OVERDRIVE</h2>



At its core, Invasion is an asymmetrical, one-sided objective mode pitting two teams of 8 against each other. Each team will get the chance to attack and defend for a total of two rounds. Each round is broken into 3 phases, and if you complete each phase, you get a point. The modes available for each phase are identical to those found in Reach, plus one new addition: 



<ul>
<li>Capture the Zone
<ul>
<li>As the name implies, this is a zone control style mode and your goal is to capture it before time runs out</li>
</ul>
</li>



<li>Assault
<ul>
<li>Much as the normal Arena mode, you are bringing a bomb to the zone and aim to detonate it before the enemy team stops you</li>
</ul>
</li>



<li>Core Delivery
<ul>
<li>If you played Reach, this is going to be a familiar objective where you are literally delivering the core to the enemy team’s base. In Infinite, this will be a Flag you are running to plant</li>
</ul>
</li>



<li>Deliver the Payload
<ul>
<li>New to Invasion with Halo Infinite, delivering the payload will have you escorting a payload along a set trail to the end destination. When the enemy is contesting the payload, forward progress halts so keep that path clear! And don’t leave the payload behind or else it won’t progress. The more Spartans on the payload, the faster it progresses along the path.
<ul>
<li>Worth noting that you can earn TWO points for delivering the payload to its final destination: One at the very end, naturally, but you’ll also earn a point when you reach the checkpoint.</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading has-large-font-size">LOADOUT LOGIC</h2>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading has-large-font-size">SAFE SPAWNING</h2>



One of the more unique features Invasion introduced was Buddy Spawning. This allowed you to spawn on your buddy directly rather than at the default spawn location. It’s not required but who doesn’t love options? Your buddy is randomly assigned during the match and you cannot change or swap. Once the game starts, you are together for the full match. Yes, this means if your buddy abandons the match that you no longer have the ability to Buddy Spawn. The caveats to Buddy Spawning:



<ul>
<li>Buddies are reciprocal (If they are your buddy, you are theirs)</li>



<li>Your Buddy must be alive to spawn on them</li>



<li>They must have been alive for at least five seconds to spawn on them</li>



<li>They must have full health and shields to spawn on them</li>



<li>They must be clear of engagements or have no enemies nearby to spawn on them</li>



<li>If your Buddy is in a vehicle, there must be an empty seat to spawn on them</li>



<li>When you spawn on your Buddy, you will be facing the way they are facing</li>
</ul>



If you don’t want to spawn on your buddy, you can choose to spawn at the other zones: Left, Middle, or Right spawns.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading has-large-font-size">VICTORY VARIABLES</h2>



So…how do you win an Invasion match? Each phase you “win” or progress will net your team a point. So if you are attacking first and you make it through all three phases and you complete them, you will have earned three points total. If you are on defense and you stop the team at the second phase, the attacking team only has one point.



It is possible to tie so if both teams successfully make it through all three phases and earn three points, everyone goes home a winner.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading has-large-font-size">IMPRESSIVE INTSALLATIONS</h2>



There are six new maps coming to Invasion which means plenty of variety for you to engage with. Let’s check them out! Grab <a href="https://www.halowaypoint.com/halo-infinite/ugc/modes/0d192b69-6899-4c3c-b63d-4de7beb07f76">the mode here</a>, and then grab the maps below.
