Halo Infinite free-to-play with 120fps multiplayer on Xbox Series X

Halo Infinite free-to-play rumours have been slowly circulating the internet for the past few months, but those rumours appear true following a new listing by the Smyths Toy Store website. 

The online toys and video games website prematurely released new information confirming the existence of Halo Infinite free-to-play multiplayer alongside a few more key details regarding the upcoming first-person shooter.

Smyths‘ listing explains that while the game’s campaign will be the most expensive single-player adventure in the series yet, the Halo Infinite free-to-play multiplayer component will also be a huge upgrade for the series, especially on Xbox Series X. 

The store listing claims that Halo Infinite multiplayer will run at a blazingly fast 120fps on Microsoft’s next-gen console, double the performance of the current-gen Xbox One and Xbox One X version.

Industry insider Klobrille also explained that the game’s multiplayer will feature a battle pass system with customisation options that are “completely new to Halo”. The remaster of Halo Reach for the Master Chief Collection also featured a battle pass; that version required no additional purchases which is what Infinite has promised so far.

Since everyone is covering this topic, I might just go ahead as well.

– Halo Infinite multiplayer will be free-to-play
– Arena aims for 120fps on Xbox Series X
– Battle Pass system
– Customization options completely new to Halo

Halo will be *huge*.https://t.co/5py6tOeids pic.twitter.com/i7HOnsLH1D
