So apparently Infinite/343 had some time working with Gears of War studio The Coalition. Both under the same Microsoft name so it makes sense. Will we see some Gears of War armor variants/customization options in Infinite? In Gears 5 there was Kat and Emile crossover so clearly there’s a possibility. Maybe a UiR or COG armor set in Infinite? Ai Marcus voice overs? Lots of possibilities

It’s a possibility. It’s definitely something players enjoy, and also don’t enjoy. Immersion breaking seems to be the main negative point from what I’ve read, but I’m sure opinions will vary.
Edit : With the Bethesda acquisition I see more chances for this to happen. DOOM armour being my immediate thought, or Fallout themed items. Many possibilities.

I agree and I am a big fan of this myself. Especially since Halo multiplayer is going to seasons and battle passes now there is a much much higher chance we get these kind of crossover armors and I am super pumped for it. Id love to wear some carmine armor just for the amount of times i get one shot by snipes lol
I’d definitely rep the Onyx Guard for a little while if it comes over. Other than Gears and Doom, I can’t think of any other Microsoft titles that have armors that can cross over. We’ll probably see emblems from other games for the most part.
I’m really not sure how I feel about having gimmicky armour in Halo.
Hopefully competitive Halo remains red Vs blue and all the gimmicky stuff can be kept to social and big team.

We’ve had it since Halo 3 with Hayabusa. We already have Yoroi in Halo Infinite. I expect the store to be packed with gimicky armour an items over the years. Emblems, charms, armour parts and coatings will be fair game imo. Be prepared.

Agreed I imagine we could get the Gears Icon/Nameplates or even Logo on armours throughout the game hell Push it even more like Fortnite and stick a lancer in Halo Infinite I think stuff like that could easily be missing opportunity same with the likes of Fallout and Doom.
Microsoft is apparently in talks with Hideo Kojima, it could mean the introduction of Grey Wolf or Metal Gear Ray style which would be nice.
