Halo: Infinite - ANOTHER Beta this weekend! We also have word on how leveling will work in multiplayer. Instead of traditional experience that every player gets to some degree just by participating, Infinite will dish out XP through daily and weekly challenges. Will work similarly to MCC’s season system. Also, with the launch of Infinite 343 Industries has confirmed that season 8 will be the final seasonal update. There will be smaller updates going forward, but nothing of the same size and scale.
