343 Industries are releasing a bunch of amazing goodies as part of the release of Infinity’s Armoury on Halo 5: Guardians. The new gear includes pizza skins and new assassinations.
REQs Worthy of the UNSC Infinity
The Halo 2 Battle Rifle makes a fantastic comeback as a Mythic loadout weapon REQ to use in Warzone. It can also be used in Forge Mode on the Halo 2 maps. There are many more goodies connected to the UNSC Infinity, the most powerful vessel designed by the United Nations Space Command.
The announcement also shares that there will be new areas for Arena and Warzone Assault. Gamers will reencounter familiar weapons and become introduced to new ones. Spartans have access to new armor sets and skins for weapons, including a cheesy pepperoni pizza one.
New Weapons and Arenas Coming to Halo 5: Guardians
One of the most anticipated weapons is the BR55 Battle Rifle, which fires 9.5mm rounds from a 36 round mag. It also has a 2x optical scope and fires in threes automatically. There’s also a new Rain of Oblivion Uncommon, an upgraded Carbine that can go fully automatic with a bigger mag.
The update also includes the Blood of Suban Rare, an advanced Carbine that fires Needler shards. If you get a few shards on one target, it’ll cause a ‘supercombine’ explosion.
New Armour Sets, Assassinations, A New Map and Pizza
Halo 5: Guardians Infinity’s Armoury also comes with the Achilles Armour Set. It can be unlocked when gamers’ Spartan Company gets to Level 3 in a Kill Commendations. Among the assassinations, the update includes the ‘Wind Up’ and the ‘Stop Stabbing Yourself’ assassinations. A new map will be coming sometime this month called Riptide.
The update came alongside a kickass video that shows the gameplay live. It features a pizza skin, rainbow skin and awesome throwbacks of the game’s best weapons at their best. The official statement tells the story of how the Created have quickly spread their influence across different worlds. They’ve gotten their hands on Forerunner machinery and UNSC information systems. Because of this, they’ve made some equipment and engines into their own designs.
