Halo Infinite has only been out a few days, but fans are already looking for mods to let them play it in new ways. The Halo mod scene hasn’t been as robust as with some other series. Still, the Master Chief Collection attracted a decent following when 343 Industries released mod tools for Halo 1, 2, and 3. Below, we’ll take a look at the best Halo Infinite mods right now.
What are the best Halo Infinite mods?
As of writing, it’s slim pickings when it comes to Halo Infinite mods. The game didn’t release with official mod support, so modders are still figuring out how to do so. Furthermore, MCC often broke mods with each seasonal update, which seems to have driven off many creators. Given that multiplayer is free-to-play and features a cash store and battle pass, we don’t see 343 Industries supporting mods in multiplayer or campaign. After all, why spend $20 on an armor and the color red when a mod can add them for free?
On NexusMods, the almost all the mods that are currently available for Halo Infinite just replace the loading screens or videos. For most players, it’s not worth the effort to download these. However, one helpful mod does allow PC users to skip the intro videos, which can be handy.
YouTube user RejectedShotgun has posted videos where he modded the game to allow him to fly the Pelican and Phantom. However, there are no downloads or instructions available for these.
As stated above, we don’t anticipate that there’ll be a robust modding scene for Halo Infinite. There’s no financial incentive for 343 Industries to support user-created content for the game. The best we can hope for is that the Forge doesn’t get delayed again because that’s the one mode in which users will get to express their creativity.
