Halo Infinite: 10 Promising Rumours You Must Hear
4. Side Missions With Other Playable Characters
From one of the same supposed leaks that mentioned Arbiter returning, it has been reported that side missions are coming to Infinite.
They will unlock after completing each main mission, and are played from the perspective of multiple characters, including Arbiter, Atriox, Lock and Palmer. Other characters mentioned in the leak are: Kelly, Linda, Fred, Jerome, Alice, Douglas, Buck, Vale, Tanaka, and Let ‘Volir.
These side missions are reported to total 15 hours of extra content for Infinite, and can be launched from the main menu at any time after unlocking them. The side missions would “take place concurrently with the mission that unlocked them”.
If true, these side missions could be a fantastic way to add depth to Infinite’s story, and flesh out its supporting cast. With content updates already promised from 343, there could be many more than 15 hours worth of side missions in Infinite’s future, and a lot of possibilities in experimenting with gameplay and storytelling.
