Physical Xbox copies of Halo Infinite are already arriving in stores, meaning Halo Infinite campaign spoilers may become an issue ahead of release. The next chapter in the ongoing saga of the Master Chief is set to launch on December 8, but 343 Industries already released Halo Infinite’s multiplayer components as a free-to-play experience a month early. So far, reactions to Halo Infinite’s new features and multiplayer game modes have been quite positive, with Halo Infinite breaking Xbox records for the most concurrent players on Steam mere hours after going live on November 15.
The single-player Halo Infinite campaign will serve as the next installment of 343 Industries' Reclaimer Saga. What's known about Halo Infinite’s plot so far is that Master Chief will be on Zeta Halo to take on the Banished, a splinter group of the alien Covenant army led by the bloodthirsty Brute warrior Escharum, as well as a mysterious character called The Harbinger. Chief is also searching for Cortana after his missing AI companion appeared as a villain in Halo 5: Guardians, a development which could lead to the two former allies facing off as enemies once again.
Players may not have to wait much longer to find out what happens in Halo Infinite’s long-awaited campaign, as Wccftech reports physical copies of the Xbox game are already reaching retail stores a week before the game’s official release. Reddit users like Wh1p96 are verifying this information on r/XboxSeriesX and issuing warning to be careful of spoilers in the run-up to Halo Infinite’s campaign launch.
Excitement for Halo Infinite is at an all-time high at the moment, despite by the game’s development cycle having seen 343 delay it after a divisive first showing last summer. Since then, the studio has been winning back the Halo fanbase’s trust by showing off how Halo Infinite’s once-maligned graphics has been noticeably improved during the extra year of polish, and the warm reception of Halo Infinite’s multiplayer component in the wake of its free-to-play launch earlier in November is a promising sign for the next installment of Microsoft’s long-running and highly influential sci-fi FPS franchise.
With physical copies of Halo Infinite already out in the wild, those who wish to experience the next chapter in the story of Master Chief unspoiled should probably shy away from any social media discussions about the game in the week leading up to its official launch. In the meantime, players can take to the free-to-play multiplayer arena to compete in the ongoing Halo Infinite Fracture: Tenrai event, which is set to continue until November 3o.
Halo Infinite is available for Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, and PC and it fully releases on December 8, 2021.
