What you need to know
- The first Halo Infinite technical preview is currently ongoing.
- After previously adding a new map to the test called Recharge, another map called Bazaar is coming to the fray.
- The technical preview is currently set to run through August 2.
The Halo Infinite technical preview is continuing, with two maps so far. When the test initially went live, only Live Fire was available for players, with Recharge added the second day. Now, 343 Industries confirms that players can try out Bazaar, a map set in Mombasa, a location that players may recognize from the Halo 2 campaign. Fans who signed up and were selected through the Halo Insider program now have access to three maps for the remainder of the test.
We're continuing to track the list of maps and modes in the multiplayer technical preview, as well as all of the bugs and launch issues players are running into. If you weren't selected for this test, there'll be future opportunities, as this is just the first of several planned "Flights" for 343 Industries to stress test different portions of the game ahead of launch. Anyone selected also needs to be giving feedback on what is and isn't working in order to aid that process.
Halo Infinite is currently scheduled to be available at some point in Holiday 2021. It's coming to Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, Xbox One and PC.
A new Great Journey awaits
Halo Infinite is the biggest Xbox game of the year by far, and based on what we saw at E3 2021, it looks like it's going to be fantastic.
