Introduction
Halo Infinite is back with an exciting update packed with fresh content, game-changing features, and a whole lot of bug fixes. Prepare to dive into the action as players embark on a new progression system called Career Rank. This system rewards players with prestigious titles and insignias based on their hard-earned Personal Score. From the humble beginnings of Recruit to the ultimate status of Hero, players will need to conquer over 270 ranks to claim their place at the top. But how do you earn this coveted Personal Score? It's simple - after each intense matchmaking game, your performance will be evaluated and translated into Personal Score. This score is separate from the Match XP that contributes to your Battle Pass progression. Keep an eye on your progress in the Post-Game Carnage Report (PGCR) to see how close you are to the next rank. As you climb the ranks, you'll unlock impressive Nameplates and Emblems to showcase your achievements. Get ready to rise through the ranks, show off your skills, and become a true Hero in Halo Infinite's latest update. It's time to leave your mark on the battlefield and make your way to the top of the Career Rank ladder.SEASON 4 OVERVIEW AND NEW FEATURES
This update brings new content, numerous bug fixes, and several new features to Halo Infinite. For a full list of this update’s bug fixes, see the Resolved Issues section below. New features and content included in this update are:
CAREER RANK
Career Rank is a new progression system that awards players with a title and insignia based on their accumulated Personal Score. As players earn more Personal Score, they can progress from the starting rank of Recruit to the maximum rank of Hero.
With 3 grades per rank and 15 ranks available in each of the 6 tiers, players must earn over 270 ranks to become a Hero.
Every player's current rank can be seen on the right side of their Nameplate.
NEW BATTLE PASS AND ARMOR CORE
Season 4 introduces a new 100-tier Battle Pass with over 180 rewards. Purchasing the Premium Battle Pass is required to earn all rewards, but all players will be able to unlock free tiers that include rewards like Weapon Coatings, Emblems, and customization items for the new Armor Core: HAZMAT. The HAZMAT Armor Core is available to all players for free and will unlock immediately after the Season 4 update has been installed. Players do not need to purchase the Season 4 Battle Pass in order to acquire this Armor Core.

New Premium Battle Pass Perks
Players who purchase either the Season 4 Premium Battle Pass or the Premium Pass Bundle will earn bonus Match XP for every Multiplayer match completed during Season 4. The bonus Match XP for purchasing either Season 4 offer is awarded no matter what Battle Pass you have equipped. This bonus Match XP will end alongside the end of Season 4 and launch of Season 5. In addition, players who purchase Season 4's Premium Battle Pass or Premium Pass Bundle will instantly unlock the new MA40 FLASHBLIND weapon model for the MA40 Assault Rifle as well as the Genesis Bloom Armor Coating for all Armor Cores.

ARMOR AND WEAPON COATING CHANGES
As mentioned in the Season 4 Customization blog on Halo Waypoint and a recent Spartan Chatter Q&A, all Armor and Weapon Coatings from the Premium Battle Pass and the Shop will include versions for all Armor Cores and Weapons. When viewing a Shop bundle, this will appear as individual Coatings for each Armor Core and/or Weapon.Any Shop bundle released prior to Season 4 or Battle Pass reward from an earlier Season will not be cross-Armor Core or cross-weapon. Additionally, all Coatings unlocked by completing the Weekly and Ultimate Challenges will be for an individual Armor Core or weapon, and not compatible across Armor Cores or weapons.
NEW EQUIPMENT
Quantum Translocator
Activating the Quantum Translocator for the first time creates a teleportation point at a player's current location. Using the Quantum Translocator again will teleport the player back to their initial teleportation point, and it creates a new teleportation point where they teleported from. Each following use returns the players to their latest teleportation point. Be mindful, however, of the Quantum Translocator's time limit (represented by a meter above the crosshairs on the Heads-Up Display) as well as the cooldown after teleporting.
Players who are actively using the Quantum Translocator can be identified by a multi-colored glow.
The Quantum Translocator is only available in Halo Infinite Multiplayer and will spawn on Power Equipment Pads placed throughout various maps, including existing maps released prior to Season 4. The Quantum Translocator is also available in Custom Games, Forge, and Academy's Training Mode.
Threat Seeker
The Threat Seeker is similar to the Threat Sensor but features additional tunings for Ranked game modes and other forms of competitive gameplay. When activated, the Threat Seeker is shot from the player's wrist, and it will bounce off different surfaces until it lands on the ground. Shortly after the Threat Seeker makes its initial contact, it emits a pulse that reveals enemy players within range, however, this only applies to players that are in direct line of sight. Players hidden behind walls or other obstacles will not appear.
The Threat Seeker's pulse only reveals enemies who are directly within its line-of-sight, so bouncing it up off of an object may provide it with a better vantage point.
The Threat Seeker is only available in Halo Infinite Multiplayer under Ranked playlists and will spawn on Equipment Pads placed throughout various maps, including existing maps released prior to Season 4. The Threat Seeker is also available in Custom Games, Forge, and Academy's Training Mode.
NEW MULTIPLAYER GAME MODE: INFECTION
The Infection multiplayer mode is now available for all players via Matchmaking and Custom Games. Players compete against each other as either Infected or Survivors. When a Survivor is killed, they join the Infected. The goal of the Infected is to infect every one of the Survivors, while the Survivors try to make it to the end of the round without getting killed by the Infected.
Some existing 343 Industries maps have Infection-specific variants. On Behemoth (pictured above), some pathways are blocked while others have been opened.
NEW MULTIPLAYER MAPS
To learn more these new maps, visit the "Maps Overview | Season 4" blog on Waypoint or view the video below for a flythrough of each new map:Arena: Forest
A new Arena multiplayer map, Forest, is now available in Custom Games and various Matchmaking playlists. On Forest, players will fight in an abandoned, asymmetrical Forerunner temple located in a dense woodland.

Big Team Battle (BTB): Scarr
Scarr, a new BTB multiplayer map, is now available via Custom Games and various matchmaking playlists. On Scarr, players will compete inside a symmetrical Banished compound built around a large, volcanic pit.

UPCOMING EVENTS
When an event is active in Halo Infinite, players can unlock free customization items via the Event Pass. To progress through the Event Pass tiers and unlock this content, players must complete Event Challenges while the event is active. Event Challenges can be identified by the orange banner icon visible by the Challenge's name, and they can be completed in any matchmaking playlist. Event dates listed here are subject to change. Please stay tuned to the News section of Halo Waypoint for the latest updates on in-game events.Infection Events: Hazmat and Containment
Season 4 will feature two separate events: Hazmat and Containment. These events will each last two weeks and feature different 10-item Event Passes. The first of these events, Hazmat, is currently scheduled to run June 27-July 10, 2023.
Unlock customization items like the NOTUS helmet (pictured above) by completing Event Challenges during the Hazmat event.
Tenrai II and III
Tenrai returns in Season 4 as a two-part event with two separate 10-item Event Passes. These rewards are different from the ones included in the previous version of Tenrai seen in Season 1: Heroes of Reach.
Players can earn free customization items for the Yoroi Armor Core by completing the Tenrai II and Tenrai III Event Passes.
Cyber Showdown II

- 77 Visual FX
A selection of the new Forerunner objects on the Mires canvas. Visit the Forge Overview article to learn more about Forge mode.
Universal Blocker Objects
A new set of Universal Blocker objects are being added to Forge. This will give Forge creators a more efficient means of preventing players from exploiting the boundaries of the map, without having to place individual types of Blocker objects. Universal Blockers will block incoming players, vehicles, and projectiles.
Visual Effects Scaling
There is now an FX Scale option under the Visuals section of the Object Properties menu that allows players to adjust the size of any visual effect in Forge, such as flames and explosions. Players can also scale the damage and audio output options for visual effects, meaning that Forge creators can control whether a visual effect produces sound or deals damage to other players.
Increasing the scale of visual effects, such as fire, can also produce more dramatic lighting in Forge maps.
Budget Menu Improvements
The Budget meter in Forge has been visually updated with new budget categories, outlining the number and type of each individual Forge object placed on the map.
New meters have been added to distinguish the number of different object types that have been placed on the map.
- Global Simulation: the overall cost of entities networked by the game, including dynamic objects, projectiles, units, actions, etc.
- Forge Simulation: the total cost of Forge resources placed on the map, such as dynamic objects, static objects, Node Graphs, etc.
- Object Limits
- Dynamic
- Total
- Vehicles
- FX Count
- Reflection Volumes
- Movers: number of movers placed on the map. This is a hard limit and cannot be exceeded.
- Animations: number of animation states used by objects placed on the map. This is a hard limit and cannot be exceeded.
- Physics: current percent usage of the total physics budget. This is a soft limit and can be exceeded, but doing this may have a negative impact on performance and some objects may stop working correctly.
- Collision: current percent usage of the total Collision budget. This is a soft limit and can be exceeded, but doing this may have a negative impact on performance and some objects may stop working correctly.
- Static
- Total
- Dynamic
- Node Graph
- Total: the total percentage of Node Graph content currently contributing to the Simulation Memory.
- Scripting Budget: each script brain has limits on how many nodes and node connections it can contain.
- Run Time Budget: allows players to track the number of run time objects, such as audio effects and nav points, added to any given Forge map. When run time budgets are exceeded, more instances of that type of entity cannot be created.
RAYTRACED SUN SHADOWS FOR XBOX SERIES X|S CONSOLES
Players on Xbox Series S and Xbox Series X are now able to toggle Raytraced Sun Shadows from the Settings menu. When this feature is enabled, all shadows cast by the sun will appear more detailed in multiplayer gameplay. The Raytraced Sun Shadows option does not apply to the Halo Infinite Campaign. In some situations, enabling this option may result in the framerate dipping below the selected Target Frame Rate value.
The Raytraced Sun Shadows option can be found under the Graphics header in the Video tab of the Settings menu.
- Launch Halo Infinite.
- Navigate to Settings. The default bindings for which are the Menu button on controller and F1 on keyboard.
- Navigate to the Video tab.

MENU IMPROVEMENTS
Several changes and enhancements have been made to numerous menus within Halo Infinite. This includes:
Campaign TacMap Update
If players complete a Campaign mission on the Legendary difficulty with all Skulls on (also known as "LASO"), it will be marked as Completed+ under the Mission List section of the TacMap, as opposed to just Completed. Once every Campaign Mission is marked as Completed+, players will earn the Headmaster achievement.
Missions completed on Legendary with All Skulls On (also known as "LASO") are now marked as "Completed+" on the TacMap menu. This can be seen underneath the mission's title in the top left corner of the screen.
Campaign Installation Changes
Alongside this update, the team is making changes to backend systems related to the installation of the Halo Infinite Campaign. Our goal is to improve the development of future Multiplayer updates by minimizing the potential for unexpected issues or instability in Campaign. This effort requires that all previously shared files between Campaign and Multiplayer are no longer shared, meaning this change will increase the overall installation size of Halo Infinite. In addition, accessing or leaving the Halo Infinite Campaign menu now requires a loading screen. Due to this loading screen, Fireteams switching between the Multiplayer and Campaign menus will need to leave then re-form their Fireteam.To learn more about this change, visit the Campaign Installation Changes FAQ article.
New Zoom Reset Behavior Option
The Zoom Reset Behavior option is now available in the Settings menu. This allows players to dictate which zoom level they start with while zooming in with a scoped weapon.
The Zoom Reset Behavior option can be found under the Movement & Aiming header of the Controller and the Keyboard/Mouse tabs of the Settings menu.
- Infinite Zoom Reset: initiating zoom returns to the last used zoom level on that weapon.
- Legacy Zoom Reset: initiating zoom always starts at the first zoom level.
New Reporting Categories for Forge Content
When reporting Forge content, players can now select from a list of categories that specify different reportable offenses, such as discriminatory language, sexual content, extreme violence, and other violations. Players will also be able to specify where they are seeing the harmful content by selecting from three additional options. These include:- Associated Images: refers to preview images of the reported Forge Asset.
- Associated Text: refers to the name or description of the reported Forge Asset given in the Details menu.
- Map Design or Objects: refers to the 3D environment or models of the reported Forge Asset.
- Launch Halo Infinite.

- Under Community File Share, select Browse All.
- Select the Forge Asset you wish to report.
- Press the Report button from the list on the left side menu.
- Select the violation type and where you're seeing the harmful content.
Shop Menu Improvements
The Shop tab now features more bundle tiles than before, and some tile sizes have increased to better show bundled items. Players can now view additional customization items by scrolling to the right. Additionally, "super bundles" (introduced in Season 3: Echoes Within) in the Shop will now be listed alongside the smaller bundles they contain.For more information on this change and other Shop changes, visit the Season 4 Customization blog on Halo Waypoint.
Indicator for New Customization Items
In the Customization menus, recently unlocked customization items are now identified by a yellow triangle in the top right corner of the item's tile. Menu options with new unlocks available within will also have a yellow triangle in the top right corner to help guide players to their new items.
The yellow triangles will disappear once the new item has been viewed, or they can be dismissed by using the "Mark All as Seen" shortcut listed at the bottom of the Customize menu.
BALANCE CHANGE
THREAT SENSOR
To better align with the behavior of the Threat Seeker, the number of Threat Sensor pings, as well as how long enemy outlines appear has decreased, while the radius and number of seconds the Threat Sensor is active for have increasedRESOLVED ISSUES AND BUG FIXES
