Halo Infinite Beta Coming First To Xbox; Split-Screen Already Up And Running

<p><a href="https://www.gamespot.com/halo-infinite/">Halo Infinite</a> had a big showing at E3 2019 last week, but Microsoft isn't done dropping news about the long-awaited Xbox and PC game. Developer 343 Industries to shared some new details on the game, and it's a lot to take in.</p><p>Starting off, 343 <a href="https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/trailer-transmissions">confirmed in a blog post</a> that Halo Infinite will support LAN and that the already announced split-screen feature is "up and running" already.

The testing periods will "start small" and then "slowly expand" up until the game's release in Holiday 2020. "Flighting may come a little bit later for PC players, but we're treating it as a first-class citizen," 343 said.</p><p>The studio also confirmed that the characters in Halo Infinite will have black undersuits. That sounds like a small detail, but in <a href="https://www.gamespot.com/halo-4/">Halo 4</a> and <a href="https://www.gamespot.com/halo-5-guardians/">Halo 5</a> players had different colored undersuits, which garnered a mix reaction from fans.</p><p>Additionally, 343 teased Halo Infinite's armor customization options, saying, "if you liked the level of armor customziation in Halo: Reach, you will be pleased [with Halo infinite]." On top of that, 343 confirmed that those who reach the highest level in Halo 5, SR 152, will receive a "token of appreciation" in Halo Infinite. </p><p>Finally, 343 stated that it has an internal team of professional gamers testing Halo Infinite's multiplayer. And on the story side, 343 re-affirmed that Halo Infinite's story begins "some time after" the end of Halo 5. </p><p>Halo Infinite releases in Holiday 2020 as a launch title for Project Scarlett. The game plays on the entire family of Xbox One consoles, as well as PC. </p>
