Instead of hot swapping between single guns, teams cycle between 11 pairs of weapons with a loose theme. 343 added a 'BTB Unlimited' playlist this week that replaces the default pistol loadout with a Bandit/Assault Rifle combo, closing the loop on the Halo Reach throwback in a way that I hope becomes permanent.Ī surprisingly cool addition to Season 3 is Halo Infinite's team-based twist on Gun Game. You'll find the Bandit in weapon lockers on maps across arena maps, but where I'm most excited to see it is in Big Team Battle.

I don't think it'll be outclassing the Battle Rifle anytime soon, but I'll take the Bandit over its full-auto little brother, the Commando, every time. It fires a bit slower than its iconic Halo Reach predecessor and has a more aggressive recoil than a Battle Rifle, but that time between shots locks you into a rhythm that makes it easier to land consecutive hits. Infinite's version is called the M392 Bandit, a semi-auto kinetic rifle that was made for clicking heads. You know what else feels great on Chasm? Halo Infinite's first new gun, which just so happens to be the return of my favorite old Halo gun, the DMR. New equipment: Shroud Screen (shoot a dome of no-see-me).New mode: Escalation Slayer (it's Gun Game).
