Xbox Series X, Xbox One, and PC multiplayer for Halo Infinite are now available

Microsoft surprised fans with a fantastic surprise on Monday as part of their celebration of Xbox’s 20th anniversary. Anyone with an Xbox One, Xbox Series X, or PC may now download the free multiplayer beta for Halo Infinite. All weekend, whispers of an early launch were circulating, and we now know they were accurate. Halo Infinite’s campaign will still begin on December 8th, but you may already play against other players online.

Live Xbox and PC multiplayer beta for Halo Infinite

The multiplayer technical tests were successful in testing the game’s foundation, according to 343 Industries in a blog post. The beta’s early release, approximately a month sooner than anticipated, made the development team feel confident. Even so, there will probably be some “bumps and glitches” along the road. After all, this is still only a beta and not the whole release to the general public. However, Halo Infinite Season 1 officially debuts today. Halo Infinite will offer seasons with various maps, special modes, and a Battle Pass, much like other well-known multiplayer games like Fortnite and Destiny. During Season 1, everything you earn will remain in your account.

What is going on in Season 1 of Halo Infinite?

According to 343 Software, Halo Infinite Season 1 will last through May 2022. The creator initially intended to release a new season every three months. Instead, 343i prolonged Season 1 “so we may conclude production for Season 2 in a healthy and sustainable way for our team” and “to guarantee Season 2 achieves our high-quality bar.”This also implies that Season 1 will provide additional material. Keep in mind that, in contrast to previous Halo games, the campaign and multiplayer are two distinct products. Like Fortnite and Call of Duty: Warzone, the multiplayer component of Halo Infinite will be accessible for free. Even if you are not interested in the campaign, multiplayer is available for free download. Other Xbox Anniversary Celebration itemsThe launch of Halo Infinite multiplayer was without a doubt the high point of the Xbox Anniversary Celebration. But it wasn’t the only significant news made at the gathering. Microsoft is launching a documentary series titled Power On: The Story of Xbox on December 13th.In addition to others, it will be accessible on Roku, IMDb TV, YouTube, and Redbox. The Microsoft website has further information on it.
