Halo Infinite Firefight: Is the co-op horde mode back?

Many prospective Halo Infinite players would love to see the cooperative Firefight horde mode return. Though, is there a Halo Infinite Firefight mode? Here’s the latest on the co-op multiplier match type making a comeback in the new Halo game for Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PC.

Is there a Halo Infinite Firefight mode?

Halo Infinite could contain a Firefight mode at launch. Alternatively, Halo Infinite could receive the co-op Firefight game type as a DLC update sometime after its initial release. There have been no official announcements at the time of writing.

Firefight made its debut in the standalone Halo 3: ODST expansion. It quickly gained popularity, most recently appearing as post-launch downloadable content for Halo 5: Guardians. Many players believe that the wave-based survival mode complements the campaign and competitive multiplayer segments nicely, rounding out a complete Halo package.

If 343 Industries does launch a Halo Infinite Firefight mode, it isn’t yet clear where it might appear. Halo Infinite consists of a free-to-play multiplayer portion and a paid campaign mode, either of which could feasibly house Firefight. Its gameplay is arguably more in line with campaign co-op, plus Firefight maps can feature story campaign locations. On the other hand, it’s ostensibly a multiplayer mode that would no doubt prove more popular as part of the free online component.

So, there are still a lot of lingering questions surrounding Halo Infinite Firefight. Many of these will receive answers as the game nears its holiday 2021 release date. In the meantime, stay tuned to GameRevolution for updates as and when new info drops.
