It’s a new year, and with that comes new content for Halo Infinite. The latest operation pass is live, with Brute Force looking to shake up the game with new modes. All of the details are below from the Halo Waypoint Blog, along with the trailer up above.
Kicking off 2025 is Operation: Brute Force, which spans January 7 through February 4 (and serves as the last Operation of Halo Infinite’s 2024 Winter Update).
New playlists and modes bring some fresh chaos with Castle Wars and Action Sack (soon), along with a free 20-tier Operation Pass, and more to help beat back those January blues.
CASTLE WARS
Capture the Flag has evolved!
Masterful melee moves and grand Grappleshot gambits will win the day in this epic 8v8 CTF mode. Take arms, throw hands, and raid the enemy castle, break through their defenses and soar through the air with the flag in hit-and-run strikes.
Here’s a look at the maps that you’ll be playing this mode on.
Action Sack is a playlist that finds its origins all the way back in Halo 2, where weird ‘n’ wild warfare brings mayhem and madness in a myriad of modes!
Stay tuned for more information about the modes you will be playing when Action Sack arrives later this Operation.
OPERATION PASS
Command. Control. Become a blunt instrument to seize the initiative and break your enemies.
The Brute-inspired Dominar armor set is available in the free 20-tier Operation Pass, along with the Wild Slant armor coating and Banished Morale Improver weapon charm.
Additional premium options for the Operation Pass include:
500 credits will make the Operation Pass durable (it will not expire), offers bonus XP during the Operation’s live window, an extra Challenge slot while your pass is equipped, and comes with an exclusive customization item.
2,000 credits instantly unlocks all 20 tiers of the Operation Pass at purchase and includes the exclusive bonus customization item.
Upgrade to the Premium Pass to acquire the Vicious Hydra weapon model for the MLRS-2 Hydra and Glorious Ichor weapon coating.
