Halo 5: Guardians Gets Infection Multiplayer Later in 2016
#1
Gamers might get in as part of Memories of Reach

Video game developer 343 Industries and publisher Microsoft might be happy with the current performance of Halo 5: Guardians, but they still want the shooter to remain relevant for the rest of the year and for 2017, with the two companies ready to add the Infection experience in the fall.

Only a short teaser associated with the experience has been offered so far, part of a live stream that focuses on the coming Ghosts of Meridian update, and it seems that players will be able to once more deal with zombies in the Master Chief powered shooter.

In Infection, one gamer becomes the zombie and he needs to move around the map trying to spread the contagion to others, with versions offered in both Halo 3 and in Reach, with the main audience made up of those players who do not want a very complex competitive mode.

It is unclear whether Halo 5: Guardians will get access to the mode in one of the updates that have already been revealed, like the Memories of Reach DLC that is planned for May, or if players will have to wait for it to arrive after the Warzone Firefight mode launches in the summer of this year.

Ghosts of Meridian is coming before the end of the week

343 Industries is aiming to introduce two new maps for the shooter, called Skirmish at Darkstar and Tyrant, before the end of the week, while introducing a range of new REQ cards that gamers can use to boost their performance.

Both of the new environments are relatively small and packed with activities, including a powerful new AI-controlled enemies.

The development team will probably only reveal the full tweaks for the core mechanics when it actually launches the DLC.

The plan is to deliver free updates for Halo 5: Guardians for the first year of its life in order to keep the competitive scene interesting, with the Pro League set to be tournament that keeps the most interested of eSports fans engaged.

343 Industries is also working on a range of other lore material associated with the shooter that will arrive this year and Halo Wars 2 will be launched by the team at The Creative Assembly before the end of the year.

A new title in the Master Chief saga will probably be announced in 2017 and might be offered on the Xbox One before the end of that year.
