Halo Infinite’s second season, titled Lone Wolves, kicks off on Tuesday, May 3. After an initial teaser, we’ve learned much more about what the new season will add — and it what it will remove. See ya later, Scorpion gun glitch.
Getting the Scorpion gun in Halo Infinite involves finding the bugged, overpowered weapon at Outpost Tremonious, but it will soon be removed from the stronghold. Community manager John Junyszek said as much on Twitter. “Heads up for speedrunners and achievement hunters,” Junyszek warned, “the tank gun glitch in [the] campaign will be fixed in Season 2.” Currently, the Scorpion gun is used to (literally) blast through the game, one-shotting enemies with infinite ammo, trivializing missions even on the game’s highest difficulty. That all ends in about two weeks, so “do what you like with this piece of information,” as Junyszek says. Get in your last few Scorpion gun runs while you can.
Of course, Lone Wolves is bringing much more than bug fixes. Two new maps called Catalyst and Breaker are part of the season, and they’re “very different” from the ones you know, according to multiplayer level designer Tyler Ensrude. The initial teaser also hinted at Last Spartan Standing, the battle royale mode that’s been spotted a few times now. We may also see more microtransactions for armor sets and accessories in the future.
