Halo Infinite is dead. Its next big update is planned to be its last — Halo Studios says it’s been a “legendary run” as the team shifts to other Halo titles.

I’ve noticed a cool new armor set in the Operation Pass called Serpin. It’s clearly inspired by the armor worn by the Honor Guard Elites from Halo 2. Apparently, within the Halo universe, this armor is actually given to Spartans by Thel ‘Vadam, the former Arbiter, as a reward for fighting alongside the Swords of Sanghelios.

Along with the new armor, they’re giving us a boost – double Career Rank and Spartan Points! That’ll make unlocking new stuff in the Exchange much faster.

And speaking of the Exchange, they’re adding over 200 new customization options, including more armor pieces. That’s on top of the Fireteam Osiris-themed sets they just added from Halo 5: Guardians, so there’s a lot to collect!

BioWare is still working on the next Mass Effect game, the studio says in N7 Day message — “EA and BioWare remain committed.”

BioWare recently shared an update about the future of Mass Effect, though details on the next game are still scarce. The update focused on the long-awaited Mass Effect TV series coming to Amazon.

The series will be set *after* the events of the original Mass Effect trilogy and won’t retell Commander Shepard’s story – a decision I agree with, as trying to match the game’s choices in a TV show would be a mistake. It’s a similar approach to Amazon’s Fallout series, which takes place years after Fallout 4.

Interestingly, BioWare hid a secret message within their blog post! Italicized letters throughout the text spell out “URL KROGAN.” This, combined with a clue on X (formerly Twitter), led fans to discover new artwork depicting a civil war among the Krogan – a race that happens to be my favorite in the Mass Effect universe, so I’m very excited to see where this goes.

While I appreciate BioWare’s efforts, I can’t help but feel a little anxious about the future. I’m hoping for the best and wish the team success in the years ahead.
