In the end, the pilot ends up being nothing more than Chief’s personal chauffer. 343 briefly tries to develop his character but for the most part it falls flat. Sadly, Chief’s new pilot on the other hand is a different story. 343 have given her a wholly unique personality from Cortana, but it meshes well with the Master Chief’s stoic demeanor. But as the game progressed, I grew to like The Weapon. For a character that is so prominent in any story involving the Master Chief, this is something that could have been very easy to mess up. Master Chief’s new Cortana model has a quirky, almost child-like personality, which is in stark contrast to the Cortana of old. I liked the introduction of The Weapon overall. The Weapon is a copy of Cortana that was tasked with deleting her predecessor after she succumbed to rampancy. Throughout the game, questions are asked about her origin, and what her purpose is. Soon after landing on Zeta Halo, you will meet a new AI known as The Weapon. This is a huge deal, as the Flood were considered basically the end of all organic life in the original trilogy, so the idea that there is something even worse on this ring, is concerning to say the least. At one point, it’s even said that The Endless are considered a bigger threat than The Flood. Throughout the game, we are warned about how dangerous The Endless are. Her goal is to bring the rest of her species, known as The Endless, back to life. Their new leader, Escharum, has made a deal with a mysterious new character known simply as The Harbinger. For most of the game, you are following leads to shut down the Banished’s attempts at activating the ring. With just a handful of soldiers left to fight, Master Chief promptly orders the pilot to take him back to the mysterious new ring, Zeta Halo, and the story of Halo Infinite begins. Most importantly, the UNSC have lost the Halo ring they were fighting so hard for when the Chief was defeated. The UNSC have lost the war with the Banished, including their famed ship the UNSC Infinity, and his longtime AI companion Cortana is now gone. A lot has happened while the Chief was gone. That is, until a castaway UNSC pilot miraculously finds the Chief and restores him back to full power. The mighty Master Chief himself falls to the Banished’s leader, Atriox, and is left floating endlessly in space for the next several months. The Banished – an enemy faction introduced in Halo Wars 2, have handed the UNSC a crushing defeat. Halo Infinite picks up 18 months after Halo 5: Guardians. Did the decision to delay the game pay off? Read on in our Halo Infinite review. When a new Halo drops, the gaming world pays attention. It’s been a long wait, and now just weeks after the series’ 20th anniversary, Halo Infinite has finally arrived. Halo Infinite was meant to be Microsoft’s premier launch title for the Xbox Series X, but after a mixed reception to a gameplay showcase just months before the scheduled release date, Microsoft made the tough decision to push the game back by an entire year, leaving their next generation console high and dry for launch exclusives.
