    343 has managed to recapture the Halo feeling and refocus Halo's gameplay by focusing less on abilities tied to the player and more pick ups and environmental choices. A simple, yet complex story which also feels like an apology to the community for the misdirection they have gone with the series. Halo finally sounds, feels and plays like Halo, once again.

    The game was incredible! Even made me tear up a few times, and the music was a 10/10 incredible soundtrack! Only negatives. Wish the game was rated M. Feel like that would help with the immersion. Second wish that they would use Blur cgi cutscenes from HW2 instead of the in-game engine. I think this would help project certain emotions a little better.

    Overall:
    Campaign 9/10
    MP 10/10
    Music 10/10

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. La campaña es simplemente hermosa. La mejor de la saga. Una historia que te atrapa, llena de misterios, enigmas y giros de trama, además de que podremos encontrar información adicional e interesante a lo largo del mapa con los archivos de audio.
    Volviendo con la historia principal, tiene un diseño de niveles increíble y yo que la jugué en legendario, debo decir que si es un reto pasarla en esa dificultad.
    Lo único que casi no me gustó en la historia, es que las misiones finales se sienten algo apresuradas. No están mal hechas, todo lo contrario, están excelentes, pero creo que se pudo haber extendido un poco más. Fuera de eso, todo lo demás me pareció perfecto.
    El mundo abierto es una maravilla, y si bien, no es el mejor, es muy bueno teniendo coleccionables, enemigos y misiones secundarias entretenidas.
    También debo decir que los soundtracks son una belleza. Desde algunos temas clásicos que han sido remasterizados, hasta nuevos temas que son como una mezcla de la esencia de aquellos temas de juegos anteriores, pareciendo hasta híbridos como por ejemplo, de Halo 4 con Halo Reach.
    Simplemente una maravilla de campaña e historia.
    En cuanto a multijugador, es excelente. Cierto que aún tiene fallas como el sistema de progreso o el no poder escoger modos de juegos, pero de ahí en fuera, es entretenido, divertido y ya se nos confirmó cambios futuros, por lo tanto, estoy seguro que podría ser considerado de los mejores multijugadores de la saga.
    En cuanto a gráficos y rendimiento; el rendimiento está excelente, mi Xbox One Fat lo corre perfecto y aunque los gráficos no son los mejores debido a que necesitan rendimiento para las consolas Xbox One, aún así se llegan a ver muy bien. Especialmente en las instalaciones del anillo, donde ese estilo metálico es maravilloso de ver.

    En general, considero a Halo Infinite como un gran videojuego y de los mejores de la saga. De manera personal, ya es mi juego de Halo favorito.

    Simply great fun, going out and freeing your soldiers, then to pick 5 of them up to go out on a firefight, bliss.
    So many ways to go about missions, single on a rampage with 1 extra to 5 in many different ways, smooth 60fps upto 120 in single player campaign.
    343 has done the game justice.

    The gameplay is on point, perhaps the best one yet on any Halo. I'm having a lot of fun playing it. And the campaign? I'm speechless, 343i didn't just finally made Halo their own, they nailed it and made it even better. The story is marvelous and compelling. I highly recommend playing it.

    A grate Halo game with a perfect combat loop. The Open World though should be a bit smaller with a greater fokus on more variable environments. The story fixes Halo 5s mess of a plot. 343s best Halo.

    Halo Infinite brought a feeling to me that I haven't had in a long time. Exploring Zeta Halo took me to the heydays of Combat Evolved but now with a much bigger view. Everything in the game is a pleasure to do. If you're a Halo fan you'll delight in one of the best Halo ever made.

    I like how familiar the gameplay feels (classic halo) but at the same time the open world adds another dimension to the replayability of the game. The story is engaging, the classic halo humor is still there, one of the best FPS experiences this year.

    Third time's a charm. It took 343 Industries three times to get it right. Halo Infinite absolutely delivers in both campaign and multi-player. It is so dang fun! Do yourself a favor and give it a try. Don't miss out on Halo's return to form!

That said it feels a bit barren and that sense of beautifully crafted purposeful levels is gone. You could even say it suffers from Ubisoft syndrome. That said it’s still pretty fun and runs great across a plethora of console and pc set ups.

    The multiplayer on the other hand honestly has little to nothing redeeming about it. Thought I must admit the core game play is great. It now a free to play like fortnite or many other current multiplayer offerings. The customization is limited , and any meaningful customization is behind agressive micro transactions, want a unique helmet for your Spartan 20 dollars. Want the color blue 10 dollars.

    There is also a battle pass you can buy but again the progression is painful and the only meaningful way of making progression on it is through doing challenges. This challenges harm the game by making it a hassle to level up your battle pass and also as a sideffect forced the game to have a limited playlist out of the users control and solely up to 343.

    Honestly I couldn’t recommend anyone purchase the physical full Price item. You gain nothing worthwhile and at malt the campaign is only worth 30 bucks.    … Expand

    This game is a return to form for Halo. I very much enjoyed that the game focused on Master Chief versus doing the split story of Chief/Locke like in 5. The game is extremely polished and didn't really experience any bugs. The grapple hook added a fun new dimension. I knocked off a point for not having co-op at launch.

    343 yave done a great job reviving the narrative of halo after h5. This is alot better and honestly one of the best halo games. Open world adds alot more time on the game and alot of audio files keep you invested in the lore and the story. If you're a lifelong halo fan like myself then expect some excitement, tears and joy.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. STORY

    Halo 5 ended on a cliffhanger. The Guardians had been unleashed upon the galaxy by a rogue Cortana, Chief was on Sanghelios and the Infinity was on the run as the Giardians shut down entire worlds.
    Halo Infinite opens and... all of that has been resolved, off screen, back whenever. LMAO! What?! Cortana is dead (?), the Guardians have, uh, well who knows. The Banished are on Zeta Halo now. How did they get there? Who knows! How'd they get off the Ark? Who cares! What happened to the Spirit of Fire and her crew? Wheres Blue Team? Wheres the Arbiter? Who cares? 343 doesn't.

    Oh and the Infinity and maybe all of her crew are dead now because reboot. Everything that could have been exciting or interesting either happened off screen or are relegated to collectibles.
    Most previous characters are dead/absent because 343i is stunningly incompetent at telling a coherent story, or even resolving one. 343 is, AGAIN, telling and not showing. 343 has learned NOTHING from their mistakes with Halo 5.

    You and Bro-hammer have a lot of bad dialogue as you single handedly take on the Banished forces on this Halo ring. You also get an annoying version of Cortana. Woketana, I guess. Some "Ghual (Destiny 2, remember?)" level villains. Theres a lot of teasing with very little that is of signifigance, story wise. 6 years, for this. Lol

    GRAPHICS

    This stinks like Anthem. Half a billion dollars and six years and THIS is the best they could do? A game that looks and plays worse than Halo 5, with a campiagn that clocks in somewhere between 6- 10 hours? Did I mention this looks worse than Halo 5, a six year old game?
    Seriously, fire up Halo 5 and go to any location that has foliage (or compare anything really). Look at the difference, its shocking how poorly put together Infinite is on every level. $10 says this game was thrown together in a year.
    It looks decent but you could fire up an FPS game from 2016 and get better visuals than you'll get here. Plants pop in and out (not at distance, it'll wink in and out right in front of you), materials look flat. The lighting is worst in series, alien weapons like the Needler no longer cast their own light (they did in 5...) as well as explosive barrels often randomly generating light.
    Texture work is decent but its nothing exciting. And yet another Series X game that doesnt have ray tracing (remember when that was a promised feature?), not that it would help much. Much like the rest of the game, its decent.

    GAMEPLAY

    Remember the excitement of an open ring world and the possibilities therein? You know what they actually did with it? Far Cry Infinite lol. This is the most low-effort, copy paste formula I have ever seen. There's a grapple hook though. Haven't seen one of those... since Advanced Warfare ;)

    The "open" world is bland, empty, lifeless and boring with cookie cutter enemy camps/strongholds that you can clear out or... not, I guess. Every time you do a campaign mission is sends you underground into a linear level. Lmao! Why even have it?

    The open world is literally just a check mark for the back of the box. No loot, no loot drops, no exciting set pieces on the surface, no character builds, "progression" thats as deep as a puddle and a mixed bag of weapons ranging from decent to crap. No replaying campaign mission without a completely new save. No co-op, no forge.

    AI is laughable. Simplistic is an understatement and increasing difficulty just adds to their health and reduces yours. Its fun, it's just not worth $60 when other games do it better.
    SOUND:
    Good, but Halo 5 is still better there too.

    PROS:
    + Combat loop is fun, for the most part
    + Runs smooth on Xbox (runs like crap on PC)
    + Lots of potential for future updates

    CONS:
    - Open world is bland, lifeless and boring. Very little to do there beyond Far Cry style side missions.
    - AI is possibly worst in series
    - Short campaign, its should be roughly 6-10 hours for most players.
    - Convoluted, underwhelming story
    - Some truly garbage tier weapons
    - Graphics are subpar for this "12Tf monster" console. Halo 5 looks better, in every way.
    - Without dynamic encounters, becomes very repetitive
    - No CO-OP
    - No forge
    - No replaying campaign missions without starting a new save file (seriously 343, WTF?! lol)
    - No loot or loot drops
    - No long term "progression" or character builds.
    - Cookie cutter game design, ripped from Far Cry series.
    - On Steam the campaign is listed as "DLC". This was done to lock people out of the refund system (if you played more than 2 hours of the free pvp). Thats LOW, even for Microsoft. Also shows the level of confidence they had in it.

    Been playing Halo since CE launched. This is not worth $60. This is NOT a AAA $60 full release game, its a Game Pass game. it shows in the lack of quality that Halo deserves. Strike three, 343i. You couldn't get a decent, finished game out the door with 6 years and half a billion $. Can't wait to see what comes next.    … Expand

I only really play the campaign on these games, and so far I’m loving the story. It also has not only the best music I’ve heard from a Halo game, but the best music for a game period.

    Was really worried when they said it was going to be open world because usually that mean diluted quality over all and generic repetitive enemy encounters but I was pleasantly surprised that infinite still feels like halo, maybe even more like Bungie Halo than 4&5 did especially because there's no promethean trash mobs in it, the most boring Halo enemies of all time.

    After finishing the game in both heroic and legendary, and with 50+ hours in MP this game is a 10/10. Sure, you could argue something about visuals but this is a crossgen game. Gameplay is top notch and every other technical aspect works superbly well. Around 12+ hours to beat the game (a little longer actually since the clock goes back upon death).

    After completing the campaign and completing most of the open world activities i'm confident in saying this is one of if not the best Halo game released to date. Among all its new features it finally feels like it knew what it set out to do and achieved that goal without feeling like it set itself away from what it means to be Halo.

The multiplayer is definitely kick-ass and will have you burning hours on the game. I will admit progression, content and custom games could be better. Custom games are buggy as hell and wont even load, progression is bare-bones and lacking juice and although the maps feel like halo and flow excellently, there are only like 9 so the content is a bit lacking but 343 is currently working on it and will patch the game up over time with updates. On the campaign side of things, it is definitely fun. The story is able to tie up Halo 5's loose ends while starting master chiefs new journey on zeta halo. Overall, an execellent game worth your money even though it's free.… Expand

The campaign was very nice, but for me the multiplayer (especially with it being FTP and on Xbox GamePass) is awesome. Things feel very balanced, it's wildly fun and replayable, and the customization options are great as well. My only issues stem from the small amount of maps (which I'm sure will be expanded upon with free DLC in the future) and the slow progression system.

    Probably the best Halo campaign 343 has done but, IMO, still doesn’t quite reach the bar set by the Bungie original trilogy. Close, though.

Close, though. Story was decent but I probably would have been lost if I hadn’t just redone full playthroughs of Halo 1 through 5 of the month before release. Even then, I don’t feel like they did a great job setting up the Banished or why the Elites are willingly working for Brute leadership. And I really disliked Echo-216 despite his plot twists, which made a major portion of the campaign story feel less impactful overall. The plot twist for the Weapon was predictable from five miles away, especially if you collected the audio logs along the way. The biggest problem with the story is it doesn't really go anywhere. It exists to 'fix' the silly decisions they made with Cortana in Halo 4 and Halo 5 and, by the end, essentially serves as a soft reboot for the Master Chief.

    Difficulty is all over the place. Rank-and-file enemies are easy, even on Legendary. But bosses have a difficulty spike on Heroic and Legendary that is almost in the realm of Dark Souls. Punishing unless you learn their patterns, and with a host of cheap abilities that can easily kill you if you make one mistake. The final three bosses are extremely punishing.

    I'm really torn on how I feel about the open world of the game. It's very Ubisoft-y, which is to say it's loaded with collectibles and sidequests that are only tangentially linked to the main story. The Banished High Value Targets, for example. Like other similar open world games, it becomes rote about half way in. That said, I found it less boring than actual Ubisoft open worlds, likely due to the speed of map traversal and the quick access to vehicles. On the same topic, I was a bit disappointed in the armor unlocks found throughout the world. They are mostly color schemes and a handful of weapon charms. But like the story, the open world really goes nowhere. Liberating outposts and taking over Banished outposts have no meaningful effect on the world or the game. Once you leave, enemies just respawn. The game feels like it's trying to straddle two worlds: It starts with two linear missions before dumping you out into the open world, then spends the entire third act as a linear narrative that doesn't allow you to return to the open world at all. The open world is a very shallow sandbox that feels like an afterthought.

    The campaign is riddles with bugs - from achievements that don't properly unlock, to dumb enemy AI in vehicles, frequent audio cutouts, and several instances of graphical stutter, sometimes with graphical freezes lasting a full 5+ seconds -- and this was on Series X and happened in both Performance and Quality modes.

    This game should be called what it is: Retail Early Access. Taken as a whole, including both campaign and multiplayer (because Halo has never in its history been campaign only), this game is missing a lot of features that are/were considered staples of the Halo franchise. By 343's own statements, many of these things won't be around for months. By this time next year, we'll have something resembling a complete game with campaign coop, forge, more maps, more modes, dedicated playlists, bug and server stability fixes, mission/level replay, etc. -- all things that are lacking at launch. Releasing an incomplete product and patching in major things later is becoming far too common practice from 343. They did it with Halo: MCC, Halo 5, and now Halo Infinite.

    Alas, the Halo bias is strong. If ANY OTHER game launched with this many missing features across campaign and MP, myriad bugs, missing graphical features on PC and next gen, and widespread complaints about multiplayer monetization, it wouldn't be getting 8's, 9's and 10's. In its current state I give it a solid 7 with the possibility to become a 9 over the next several months. But I can only review what we have in front of us now, and it's missing too many things, has too many bugs, to score it any higher.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I finished the campaign yesterday and I decided to give my thoughts for everyone hesitant to buy the game. Campaign wise infinite is awesome. The story is very well done, but it doesn't go that far. Still a great story though,probably one of the best. It really reminds me of CE story cause it laid the foundations for other great halos to come while kinda waving goodbye to the old halos. The gameplay loop is phenomenal although I was kinda disappointed by the fact that there are no scarab battles,or large battles in general. The open world feels alive and there's much stuff to do however I would prefer if they added other biomes besides the same green grass . The interiors and the artstyle are exceptionally designed and the graphics especially in the cutscenes phenomenal(played on Xbox one). The audio and music excellent as always. Overall I would rate the campaign a 9,2/10 my 3rd favourite halo campaign.

    The multiplayer is also good. The gameplay loop and the sandbox phenomenal,the maps very good although I would like to see more maps added but the games suffers from one severe mistake:lack of content. Seriously they need to add some more modes soon except swat,fiesta which announced that are coming this Tuesday. The progression system although better than launch still needs some improvement but I don't really care. Overall this gets a 8,3/10    … Expand

    If the open-world concept had been better utilized and if the writers had added more interesting characters to the story, Infinite could have easily been one of the best Halo games ever. The shootouts are highly entertaining and the open world brings new tactical possibilities. The multiplayer is just as good, being slightly faster than before. [Issue#317]

    Halo is back to its best with Halo Infinite, tight controls, and seriously thirst-quenching gunplay that feels so intuitively satisfying. Traversal has been improved hugely by the addition of the grappleshot, allowing Master Chief to zip around at speed, as well as adding a unique element for multiplayer matches. A particular dampener has to be directed at the online multiplayer, which is riddled with cheaters, but, if they were to be removed then the multiplayer offers a solid free-to-play experience that is fast and frantic. Halo Infinite, alongside a number of other Xbox first-party titles is a great addition to Xbox Game Pass, and it is certainly a marquee game that warrants a subscription to the service.

    There’s not much to do in the open world, but thankfully, it doesn’t play a big role either. Infinite mostly sticks to what makes Halo great: first-person action. Smart level design, great mobility mechanics like grappling hook, and good AI make for some really memorable moments. [Issue#258, p.42]
