What are your thoughts on arbiter? do you think he’ll be back for infinite? It would be dope if he fights alongside the chief like in H3.

Maybe in future dlc, kind of depends how Infinite storyline goes, not opposed to Arbiter being there somewhere across the next 10 years

That would be awesome, yes!

Not sure why he would be on zeta.
He is likely busy with being the ruler of a planet and the fallout of defeating the storm and the created taking control of the universe.
It would make way more sense to see blue team and so far no indication of that happening has been seen so thel is most likely not in the campaign.
At least not the launch one.
My first topic I posted was about this. t/thel-vadam-bane-of-prophets/1443
No. He really has no reason to be on Zeta Halo with his own planet and system dealing with the Created. I’d love if we head back towards Sanghelios to help him again though.

Doubtful at the start at least. Idk how they would loop the story into him being there.
I loved Arby in H2 and H3, but I don’t think he needs to come back, nor do I see why he should. I hope that Infinite will introduce new characters instead, and that we’ll have a new “Arbiter” protagonist down the line.

I would love to be able to replay as the Arbiter but I think it won’t be for Halo Infinite

Awesome character. Definitely hope he returns. Surely his path will cross with MC at some stage in the next 10 years of campaign story.
And hopefully not just as an NPC.
PS. And while I am no lover of playable Elites… I’m sure once they have done the character assets (models, textures, animations, sounds) for a playable Arbiter - that’s when we’ll see Elites introduced into custom games.

I like Arby and the Sangheili lore they began introducing formally in H5 (despite the campaign being meh at best). Retcon Arby back to his original look, and yeah bring him back at the head of some Sangheili hit squad for a DLC story arc. Give Chief & Arby the chance to fight together again like H3. It would be cool.

If he looked the same as in Halo 3 it would be weird; just make him fit Infinite’s art style in a different way.

Nah, the kidon, has more than o e set of clothes he can wear.
He doesn’t need to rock horns or the arbiter armour.
He could rock his black suit or something new or a refurbished arbiter garb.
My likes ran out for now so I’m just gonna say I agree

He won’t appear in the base campaign.
