Halo Infinite – Operation: Fleetcom

New Modes

  • VIP – A mode that was originally introduced in Halo 3, VIP is a team-based mode and is generally played 4v4. Each team will have a game-designated initial VIP and it's up to you to keep your VIP alive while also taking down the opposing team's.
  • Headhunter – Coming later in the Operation, Headhunter is a free-for-all mode originally introduced in Halo: Reach, where you collect skulls recovered from defeated players. The more you collect, the bigger the target you become. Take your collected skulls to the zone to score. Deposit 10 skulls at once to instantly win the match.

Forge Updates

This update brings a lot of new tools and toys for Forgers to play around with, providing increasingly granular control over your creations and enabling you to craft your maps and modes with a greater level of authenticity. For more details on Forge updates, visit the Forge Update blog on Halo Waypoint.
  • Jeff Steitzer VO Lines – Over 1,000 lines from Jeff Steitzer, the beloved voice of Halo's multiplayer announcer, have been added to Forge.
  • Campaign Soundtrack – The entire soundtrack from Halo Infinite's campaign has been added with a variety of situational nodes that will help enhance Forge creations.
  • Nav Markers – Forgers now have an unprecedented level of control over the use of nav markers to help players understand different aspects and objectives of various game modes.
  • UI Messages – Forgers can now provide players with information in text strings that appear in the heads-up-display (objectives, instructions for custom minigames, etc.).

Sandbox Updates

Alongside Operation: Fleetcom comes some major sandbox overhauls we have implemented based on community feedback. For the full breakdown of these updates, go to the Sandbox Update blog on Halo Waypoint.

Halo Infinite Operation Pass and The Exchange

With Fleetcom, there is a new, free 20-tier Operation Pass. Progress through the pass with Match XP and you will unlock the Operator armor originally introduced in Halo: Reach. The Exchange has received another refresh with various items available to acquire with Spartan Points – including the beloved fan favorite "Haunted" helmet which was last seen in Halo: Reach. Based on player feedback in wanting more opportunities to earn Spartan Points, we have made an update so that all players will now earn Spartan Points for every match completed.
