Halo Infinite's next technical preview is only a matter of hours away, and we have a full length look at an entire match of Big Team Battle to whet our appetite.
As part of a live stream showcasing everything fans can expect to find in Halo Infinite's upcoming technical preview, an in-depth look into a Big Team Battle match of Capture the Flag was highlighted. At the 48:55 mark, you can watch the 13-minute long battle (timestamped above).
It all seems to be business as usual for Halo, albeit more refined and with improved graphics. Playing out on the map known as Fragmentation, sub-objectives were also shown. Players will be able to use their AI companion to hack into facilities and grab the loot inside, such as a brutal Gravity Hammer.

Having enjoyed the first technical preview, we're pretty excited to check it out - especially given the fact this test has more of an emphasis on playing against real-life opponents rather than bots. The only caveat is the fact that matchmaking can only be checked out at certain times, but don't worry, you can still dive into other solo modes too.
Are you excited about the upcoming technical preview of Halo Infinite? Drop us a comment and let us know.

Just on looks alone it looks a bit better in multiplayer.
But the campaign will look last generation even when compared to far cry 6 open world graphics wise or even assassins creed vanhalla.
343 just don’t bring the whole package together even after 6 long years, say like playground games or the coalition do.
Anyone would think halo infinite hasn't got a campaign...
@UltimateOtaku91 @Dezzy70 You both raise valid points. I wanna defend it and say you're wrong but...you might not be. let's wait and see. I do think campaign will certainly have improved graphics for Series X. Y'know, if there is a campaign 😐
@UltimateOtaku91
Well there is rumour going around it has. 😂
You think Microsoft would be giving it great publicity like FH5 if it was confident and happy.
The reason it’s all a bit jumpy around the campaign, is of course from last years game play and also the silence from Microsoft.
Microsoft are normally very forward when they have something good to show like FH5.
I mean look at the competition showing full gameplay of HZDFW, GOW2 etc that’s confidence and bragging rights even.
@Serious_Snape well the graphics for the multiplayer look better than what what shown previously for the single player, so yeah I'd wager the single players graphics will be the same as the multiplayers, be weird if it wasn't
@Dezzy70 I think you're right about their initial release of campaign footage. There definitely nervous. It's a massive shame because Xbox has some awesome games coming out, even Starfield showed a little something and that's got quite some time to go. It makes no sense Halo won't reveal more campaign, I mean, in all honesty it's a game pass title so most of the fan base are gonna be forgiving about some hiccups here and there, but to fully turns the lights out does make me a tad worried. I agree about your point of delaying it, as well. March would be a healthier release date, and would see Xbox on the stage alongside PlayStation. If they did that they could advertise Redfall, Halo, Starfield and whatever game is coming out next year (Cross fire or Scorn maybe)
@UltimateOtaku91 it would be weird...Yet I wouldn't be surprised. You can tell I'm a !massive Xbox fan, don't get me wrong, I'll get a Playstation 5 one day, started saving already so I can buy it and all the exclusives (looking at 2023 maybe) but halo is honestly starting to be a joke for the Xbox brand. Multilayer is great, sure. Campaign is important, especially seeing as we have to wait for co-op. I'm with Dezzy, delay the game till March or something. Makes.more sense
@UltimateOtaku91 @Serious_Snape @Dezzy70 fart fart faaaart. Game will be awesome
@Hellosmoothskin Maybe try getting your head out of your bum and you might not hear so many farts. Nobody is debating whether the game will be awesome, simply commenting on the lack of campaign footage which, to be fair, should worry any Halo fan or otherwise.
@Serious_Snape I can tell lol I've played the master chief collection and it was good to me, but I think they need to modernise the game more, like adding open world areas with side quests and adding decisions to make in game which will effect the outcome etc
@UltimateOtaku91 I agree. I enjoy Halo but I don't think it's king of FPS anymore. I would love to see decision making in a halo game
@JohannVanDerSmut you're wrong! We know a great deal about star field, like, it'll have space in it, and probably stars, and fields.
I jest.
I see your point. I'm a nervous gamer haha, I get worried over game releases etc. 😀
@Serious_Snape aslong as starfield is like elder scrolls but in space then I'm sold
I think the overall issue apart from FH5 is Microsoft are showing little of nothing at the moment with AAA in house exclusives real gameplay wise and no shows of gameplay and silence is normally always a worry.
Especially when the other side are beating their chests with gameplay and confirmed as we can get now a days release dates.
With 4 big AAAs set for release next year.
HZDFW, GT7, Forspoken and GOW2
All showed gameplay with confidence.
I think right now I’m almost at my lowest in confidence with Xbox I have ever been and it just seems like a game pass, update old games and remaster machine.
@Dezzy70 I've gotta disagree there, but I respect your opinion and You have a valid reason to have it. I think Game pass alone is incredibly impressive with Sable, Aragami 2, Back 4 Blood (soon) Pscyhonaughts 2, Forza, Bethesda titles, I could go on but I wont. However, game pass is also on PC, so I understand whether won't translate to a Xbox entirely. Xbox has some heavy hitters coming but they're a bit slow on the uptake, Sony have mastered exclusives and Xbox are just now getting serious. By 2022 to 2023 I think the gaming community are going to be spoilt. Redfall, Starfield, Forza, Halo (maybe lol) Stalker, Scorn, Crossfire X, the gunk, replaced, Outerworld 2, Wolfienstein 3 (I'm throwing that in as a bet haha) and more.
Game pass is what fills the gaps in between and it seriously is stupidly good. These past few months have delivered a massive variety of games, and next month We have Back 4 Blood.
I know, Sony have shown more gameplay than Xbox has, I honestly just think that's down to showmanship. Sony knows how to put on a show and promote. Xbox isn't that confident, but that'll change. Let's come back to this thread on a year from now 😊 if I'm wrong, I'll eat my series X haha
@SplooshDmg Perfectly articulated 😊
@Serious_Snape
I truly hope you are right and in a years time things have picked up AAA in house games wise on the Xbox next generation consoles.
If nothing else competition is what helps us gamers more than anything.
Yes Sony know how to promote but being fair they have got the games at the stage to show off gameplay with and promote and give release dates.
It’s just concerning going back to the original thread Xbox are not with Halo campaign gameplay.
@SplooshDmg that may be true so your saying something similar to destiny 2 which brings out new modes/story content every 3-4 months? And that has worked for destiny but people will still moan, it would technically be a live service game and you wouldn't be getting all the content when you pay for it
@UltimateOtaku91
I thought that’s we were getting campaign story mode wise in Halo Infinite an infrastructure very similar Destiny. I have thought that all along.
So the game adds and grows as time goes by.
