Content confirmed for launch (according to my knowledge) is solo campaign, and standard arena game types? Am I missing something? This seems incredibly underwhelming. As far as “standard arena game types” I mean 4v4 with arena variations and BTB with its variations, but that still seems like such a small amount of launch content
The only things confirmed are the following:
-
Campaign - Social and ranked - Battle pass - Fracture events - 3 BTB maps (at minimum) - 5 arena maps (minimum)Modes:
-
slayer - ctf - oddball - strongholds - total controlThere is other stuff in leaks but we dont discuss leaks here. As of now, this is all that has been shown and we can generally infer there is more than that. We just need to wait and see

- Solo Campaign (largest ever, so they say. And that means nothing if the story is bad, but we’ll have to see) - MP with standard game types (vehicle drops for BTB 2.0, not horribly interesting, but new nonetheless), probably some maps we haven’t seen yet. - Bot games (yes it’s still a new feature, even if barely) That said it will be interesting to see how this fits with infection… - Academy (good feature for new players, pointless for vets, but again, Halo’s never had a training mode) - Custom games (although without forge they won’t be that interesting, but Forgers never cease to impress me) - Customization on par with, if not greater than, Reach (regardless of the battlepass this is a very good thing). Also personal A.I.s and Fracture Events (whatever that entails) - Good soundtrack imo (semantics, but boppin’ music is a must for Halo) - New Sandbox: - New Vehicle (Razorback) - New weapons (Shock Rifle, Heatwave, Cindershot, Disruptor, Stalker Rifle, Dynamo Grenade, Ravager, Skewer, Mangler, Pulse Carbine, Commando) Not counting the Sidekick or Bulldog - New Equipment (specifically the grapple and repulsor) - Fusion CoilsThis is me being very generous.
Missing big modes:
- Forge - Firefight/Warzone - Theater???Again, I’m being very generous. But there are some things here that are new to Halo (not necessarily to gaming).
It’s only what is confirmed that we have seen, it’s not like they are gonna show us everything before launch. With the covid thing that has caused problems of course some content will come after like co-op and forge.
343 have done a really good job with Infinite from what iv’e seen so far, so I’m not worried about content
