As we reported earlier, Halo Infinite multiplayer has received an early launch from 343 Industries and you can play it right now.
In a surprise announcement during the 20th-anniversary celebration stream for the Xbox brand, 343 Industries revealed that the multiplayer for Halo Infinite will be available to download now on Xbox and PC. Season 1 of the battle pass can be played and the best part is that it is a free-to-play launch so you don’t have to pay for it.
This is a free-to-play multiplayer that is separate from the main campaign. It features a battle pass system and won’t offer any traditional microtransactions or loot boxes as promised by the developers.
Microsoft has shared some details on what you can expect from the Halo Infinite multiplayer beta on Xbox Wire.
As a thank you to the Xbox community for 20 years of support, 343 Industries launched the free-to-play Halo Infinite Multiplayer Beta and Season 1 three weeks early, available starting now for all players on Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One and Windows PC.
