Ammo stations for different weapon types are also readily available. You might run out of ammo often, but there's always a new gun around the corner - whether that's having been dropped by one of the Banished, or in a rack hidden around a pillar. They are all also as familiar as they are fun, and as plentiful as we've always remembered. It is slick and almost basic at times, with the series' trademark two main weapons able to be carried at a time. We're not sure if it's just rose tinted glasses, but we loved the more simple first-person shooter action of the first few Halo games to 4 and 5, so Halo Infinite ticks all the right boxes for us. And when the gameplay is as smooth and fun as this, we suspect you'll end up taking your sweet merry time too. We spent hours simply finding and taking out targets, for example, between story missions.

Of course, you could play the entire Campaign by just heading from one story point to another, but that would not only be a shame, you'll miss out on boosting your character to the max in the process.Д«y adopting a more Ubisoft-like approach, 343 Industries gives you much more of a free rein and greatly expands the play time. And there are also targets to be sought and eliminated who reward you unique weaponry. There are plenty of extra opportunities for bonuses across the vast map too, which you often find by literally running into them either on foot or in one of the classic vehicles drawn from Halos of yore.

Now we have the Campaign mode, a standalone game that features the biggest story of the series, plus a whole load more, and that's what we'll mainly concentrate on in this review. First, we were treated to season 1 of a free-to-play multiplayer beta, which is already gaining plaudits for its back to basics gameplay and sheer sense of fun (if you want to know exactly what it's like you can simply download it and play - it won't cost you a penny). Still, good things come to those who wait, as they say, and the latest Halo has finally arrived in two separate parts. And, its absence left the Xbox consoles without a truly big flag to wave as the new generation began. Like many games during the ongoing pandemic, Halo Infinite was delayed - by a year, no less. Think Xbox, you think Halo - and the latest outing for Master Chief was to be the launch game to set the stall perfectly.

(Pocket-lint) - When Xbox unleashed its two next-gen machines in the winter of 2020 - the Xbox Series X and Series S - they were meant to be accompanied by its premiere games franchise.
