Match Composer Preview

by misplacedyank

Tenrai IV kicks off next Tuesday, June 4, and Halo Infinite will receive an update alongside the launch of this latest Operation. Players can expect a few fixes under the hood, but the most exciting component of this next content update will be the release of the long-awaited Match Composer functionality for matchmaking! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/38365036/daa150051e40488d5e2e8a53e8483f80b8346ea6.jpg Today, we want to give you a quick preview of what you can expect and how this feature will offer more flexibility to play the experiences you enjoy the most. So, what exactly is a “Match Composer?” This new matchmaking functionality allows players to choose a high-level playlist based on criteria like team composition (4v4, BTB, FFA, etc.) and then choose the specific modes you prefer to play (Husky Raid, Team Slayer, Team Snipers, etc.). {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/38365036/0045797cbf8e15a9474f47fa973e9057de2fedae.jpg Originally, players would just be able to select “Team Arena” which could end up puttin...

Free Halo mode brings CoD Zombies inspired co-op for a limited time

by editor@pcgamesn.com

Halo's Forge mode has always been a haven of creativity. Matchmaking in Reach was filled with obstacle courses, Grifball, infection, and even a mode where you scaled a ramp while avoiding falling debris. Halo Infinite has mostly kept that tradition alive (when Forge finally arrived), offering up fan-made tabletop RPGs and even an entire battle royale mode. Now though, 343 has sanctioned an entire Call of Duty Zombies tribute and put it in matchmaking for a limited time. Read the rest of the story...

Combat Workshop: Survive the Undead

by misplacedyank

“Survive the Undead is an all new, endless, round-based horde mode. Made with Halo Infinite’s Forge tool, it takes full advantage of Halo’s sandbox and gives players a PvE experience they haven’t seen in Halo before.” – The Forge Falcons {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/38365036/fd25ddc0a46c2e9ee1a491431aa3d17f28fceedb.jpg When your friend group is all strongly Forge-inclined and talented, you wind up with something like the Forge Falcons. Entirely community driven, this crew dreams big and makes magic happen with the power of Halo Infinite’s Forge. If you can dream it up, they can make it happen – they are absolute wizards with Forge!
