As we get closer to the conclusion of Halo Infinite Season 2, more leaks are unofficially revealing new content. Halo's community director at 343, Brian Jarrard, recently addressed this - noting how the team was about to emerge from its cocoon.
Next week, there'll apparently be a new update issued - outlining the "next several months" of Halo Infinite. Here's the full rundown:
Brian Jarrard @ske7ch: "We're about to emerge from this cocoon. Putting together an update for next week to go over what to expect over the next several months. Once we're fully into regular seasonal/development cadence we'll have more to regularly show and tell"
In terms of what's to come - Halo Infinite fans are still waiting for the official release of Halo co-op multiplayer and also the Forge mode, which has already been showcased in a lot of leaks. Jarrard even went to the extent of saying how he doesn't blame the community for taking matters into its own hands:
Are you eager to see what's next for Halo Infinite? Tell us down below.

It's been a long time since I've deleted this from my Series S to save space. Much better games out there on GP. 9 months post release they are still trying to catch up to regular season cadence.. embarrassing
Only thing I'd like to see is a new campaign, but I know I'll wait years for it as that the multiplayer will always be the main focus for a halo game.
At this point I just want Xbox to announce some different games in the halo universe. Get one of their many many wrpg studios making a halo rpg… the universe is reach and would be well suited for one
From all the leaks recently I’m pretty hyped for this. I doubt the announcements will sign with that hype but I’m happy they’re giving I’ us an update.
Between the bandit rifle (DMR), Shroud equipment, BTB new variants, forge, custom game browser and Escalation PvE mode there’s a lot to look forward to in the future.
Halo Infinite is more like Halo Irrelevant until they make a BattleRoyale. BR is the new TDM and not having one is stubborn and or tone deaf.
@PushButtons there's definitely a place for both. The way I try and explain it is the range of enjoyment in a BR is lower and higher than a TDM game. By lows I mean dying in the top half due to skill/loot/jank and highs beating everything else.
Sometimes I don't want or need the lows or high that a BR can bring. Sometimes a TDM which can be pretty amazing is enough. Having respawns is forgiving to the ol' psyche.
The state of the game is just sad…
Not sure how 343 went from Halo 4 and 5’s polished campaigns and meaty multiplayer offerings to this. Those games weren’t quite to my tastes but they were of high quality at release.
How about they scrap it and build more maps and modes for Halo 5 multiplayer???
I connected my external storage today and was surprised to see Infinite was there. That'll be an easy 22gb to reclaim when I need it!!
Still no couch co-op or local multiplayer splitscreen without having each player sign in with a separate account (which is absolutely ABSURD). 343 couldn't be more blatant about their $$$ priorities if they tried; the single biggest disconnect between them and a growing segment of the industry and gamers is, there's honestly no desire to offer genuine value anymore. And I'm not even talking about asking for "more"; I'm talking about the same features Halo has had since Combat Evolved on the original XBox hardware. If you're no longer meeting even those criteria, it's not due to "technical limitations", it's because you no longer care to as a developer.
I’m just hoping we get a dedicated slayer playlist.
@Meehanuk_1987 you mean team slayer? Or BTB team slayer? There’s been a 4v4 team slayer playlist since January I think.
I deleted this to save space on my HDD as soon as I'd completed the first battle pass about 4 months ago and I've not looked back.
@ParsnipHero ahhh didn’t realise is there a way to just play that without having different games thrown in randomly ?
@Meehanuk_1987 yea, so Quick Play is usually at the top (outside of events) which is slayer and objective modes (Oddball, CTF and Strongholds) but if you scroll down there's a Team Slayer playlist that should get you what you're looking for.
I will warn you though, for the past couple of months this was changed from being AR/pistol starts only to being a mix of AR/pistol or BR only starts. ARs or pistols are generally still on the map in BR only starts though.
@ParsnipHero thank you so much.
It was me just being stupid I thought there was only 5 playlists and have never scrolled past the 5th 🫣
Made my day plus I feel incredibly stupid but thank you.
@Meehanuk_1987 all good.
Cat tails, cat paws, and cat collar incoming. Yay.
