Halo Infinite Brings Back Beloved Firefight Mode

Halo Infinite is welcoming back the nostalgic Firefight mode, originally introduced in Halo 3: ODST. This mode allows players to team up with three others to fend off continuous waves of enemies over three rounds and a bonus round. Players can enjoy extended gameplay with seven lives available, which can be regained through bonus challenges. The launch of this feature coincides with the Operation: Blue Team event, which runs until April 8. Excitement from fans is palpable as they reminisce about the classic gameplay that Firefight offers. For more details, the Halo Infinite blog provides comprehensive coverage of this update.

Firefight is a cooperative multiplayer mode where players battle against successive waves of AI-controlled enemies. Teams of four work together to survive as long as possible, utilizing strategies and teamwork to overcome increasing challenges, with the possibility of earning back lives through successful performance in bonus rounds.

Halo Infinite builds on the legacy of the beloved Halo franchise, which began in 2001. The series has long been known for its compelling gameplay and rich lore. The introduction of Firefight Classic signals a commitment by 343 Industries to honor the franchise's roots while continuing to evolve the game with new content. The rebranding to Halo Studios indicates the studio's ambition to explore new titles and experiences within the Halo universe, utilizing modern technology such as Unreal Engine 5 for innovative developments.
