Following on from the news the Halo Infinite multiplayer technical preview could happen as soon as this weekend, 343 Industries has now made it official - with invitations arriving in inboxes around the globe right now.

From 29th July to 1st August, select participants will be able to experience the first "Bot-focused" technical preview - giving teams of players the chance to go up against four bots across three maps (Bazaar, Recharge and Live Fire).

"Bot Arena is a great place to familiarize yourself with Halo Infinite’s gameplay and maps in a stress-free environment. The Bots still have their quirks, which is why we’re flighting them, but they certainly aren’t pushovers. Be prepared."
