When the Xbox Series X launches this fall, Halo Infinite is likely going to be the flagship first party game for the brand new console. That means taking advantage of the console’s improved features and extra horsepower. However, at the Xbox Games Showcase, when Microsoft showed off Halo Infinite gameplay to the world, they conspicuously left out any details about multiplayer. Instead, 343 Industries simply said that details about multiplayer will come soon. We later got confirmation about co-op modes for the campaign, but still no news about multiplayer.
Halo is for everyone. We can confirm #HaloInfinite multiplayer will be free-to-play and will support 120FPS on Xbox Series X. More details will be shared later! pic.twitter.com/9bIrppFiON
It’s interesting to see the mention of free to play here. Microsoft recently removed Xbox Live’s 12 month subscription plan, which hints that the company may be thinking of making online play free on the console.
