Halo Infinite (PC / Xbox ONE) CD Key XBOX LIVE

Master Chief returns! Following on from the events of Halo 5, this game picks up the Master Chief’s story, and takes him back in time with a new set of armour that is a nostalgic nod to earlier games and appearance by the Master Chief

Halo 4 started a trilogy, that is known as the Reclaimer Trilogy, and that this is the final episode of that trilogy. The events of Halo Wars 2 are also relevant, weaving into the story and providing some points of interest and plot detail that help to make the game a solid, immersive experience.

The Master Chief’s equipment can now be customised in a very detailed manner, especially when compared to Halo 5, which offered a fairly basic, standardised helmet and bodysuit. This game is so detailed that you can choose individual pieces of kit, right down to the shoulder protectors that fit into the armour!

What is a Halo?

Within the game, the Halo Array refers to an immense series of ring-shaped super-weapon in which a small planet’s population could comfortably live. They were designed in antiquity by the Forerunners to vanish the Flood (a parasitic sentient life force that infects any living being), but which have now been claimed as religious artefacts which could carry the above-mentioned zealots on the long awaited ‘Long Journey’.

There is a halo ring featured in this game, and Master Chief will have to keep his wits and weapons sharp (so to speak) as he battles to best the opposition

A quick point: microtransactions are part of this game, but the developers have avoided the whole lootbox vs gambling vs irate bill payer’s argument by leaving lootboxes out of the game entirely. You can pay to advance more readily, but you will always get what you are paying for.

Ways to Play

• Single player – play along the story arc, taking out enemies, learning more about friends and Master Chief himself as you work your way to the story’s conclusion
• Multiplayer – play with friends or against strangers with up to three other players. The game will display on your screen as a 4-way split screen so you can keep an eye on what the other guys are up to as well as watching your own back
• Forge mode is back! The sort-of equivalent of a ‘creation’ world, Forge allows you to customise maps and tweak your game playing experience. Designed to allow players to create new areas, the developers have been so impressed by Forge creations that they have included even more content, with plenty of resources, tools and so on
• Battle Royale Mode? – There is NO Battle Royale mode in this game, but the developers have mused aloud the fact that, players, should they be keen enough and determined enough, could create a Battle Royale style arena in Forge Mode, setting the appropriate rules of play…
