Truth and requisition. As an Xbox Game Studios title Halo Infinite launches day one on Game Pass, but Microsoft is also selling it for £55. Over on the Xbox Games Store you can now pay £54.99 for Halo Infinite’s campaign — the multiplayer is a free-to-play, standalone download. Essentially, the entire Halo Infinite package costs £55 — £15 cheaper than the £70 next-gen standard set by Sony and some other third-party publishers. For comparison’s sake, Microsoft is selling the recently-released Forza Horizon 5 for £54.99 also. It is also available through Game Pass. Microsoft announced this week that Forza Horizon 5 had more than 10 million players at launch, making it the biggest launch week in Xbox and Game Pass history. It seems Microsoft has settled on a £55 price for its big new games, which comes in significantly lower than Sony’s valuation for its PS5 games. Gran Turismo 7 is down for £70, as is Horizon Forbidden West. Ghost of Tsushima launched at £69.99. Of course, if you subscribe to Xbox Game Pass you get access to the Halo Infinite campaign as soon as it launches on 8th December. But if you want to buy it outright, you’ll need to drop some cash. Interestingly, the Halo Infinite campaign is a fiver cheaper on Steam, where it costs £49.99. John Linneman and Alex Battaglia sit down to share their impressions of the opening campaign missions in Halo Infinite. Microsoft’s release of Halo Infinite is unlike that of any previous Halo game. The already-released multiplayer is free-to-play supported by a battle pass and cosmetics purchases. The campaign launches on 8th December as part of Halo Infinite’s official street date. For the campaign, developer 343 applied traditional Halo combat to an open-world design, with a new ring littered with objectives and other points of interest.343 took inspiration from classic Halo: Combat Evolved levels Silent Cartographer and Truth and Reconciliation, spreading out the design seen in those missions across an entire Halo ring.
