Halo Infinite

Halo Infinite is the sixth entry in the core Halo franchise. It puts players back solely into the Mjolnir power armor of Master Chief after the fifth game's decision to split his time in the campaign with another protagonist. In the game's campaign, players will enter the open world of Zeta Halo as they battle to stop a faction of foes known as the Banished, who now have control of the installation. The multiplayer mode revives the frantic first-person shooting combat and pits players in free-for-alls or team-based combat, where they complete objectives and earn currency to customize their Spartan soldier the way they want.
