Halo Infinite, will be making its way to PC and Xbox Series X/S this month. As the official launch of the epic game comes to a close, fans of the franchise are more hyped than ever, especially now that the open beta is in full steam.

Another is the Big Team Battle that allows players to mix and match weapons, vehicles, and equipment. Moreover, Halo Infinite will also provide a more in-depth Spartan Customization by allowing players to discover and earn cosmetic items through the main campaign and multiplayer modes.

Nevertheless, players are still anticipating other game modes teased by the developers. One of which is the campaign co-op scheduled to go live in Season 2. Another missing feature is the Forge Mode which, as per Joseph Staten, Head of Creative at 343 Industries will be making its way to the game in Season 3 in an interview with Eurogamer.

Halo Infinite’s Co-Op Campaign Mode allows the player to experience the single-player or the main campaign with a friend. There is a huge probability that this mode will be similar to Halo Wars or have some elements inspired by the aforementioned Xbox 360 game. In short, Co-op will allow you and your friend to explore the semi-open ringworld of Zeta Halo.

What is Halo Infinite’s Forge Mode?

Halo Infinite’s Forge Mode has various tools. This part will allow players to script events that will affect map objects, vehicles, weapons, and players.

In an interview with Eurogamer, 343 Industries’ head of creative stated that their goal is to ship the highly anticipated co-op mode on Season 2. But not only that, also Forge tool on Season 3. This means that players will have to wait for a minimum of three months. All before they can get their hands on the Co-op mode.

In addition, Joseph Staten in the same interview stated that addressing the player’s feedback while working on the Co-Op and Forge mode will be their challenge in the coming months. Nevertheless, they will make sure that the two promised modes will be delivered to the community as promised.
