Xbox Series X Halo Infinite now live at GameStop and Master Chief is joining Fall Guys

Halo Infinite Xbox Series X restocks at GameStop

Another shot to snag the limited-edition Halo Infinite console.

GameStop has announced plans to reopen Halo Infinite Xbox Series X console preorders this week, plus the accompanying Halo Infinite Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2.

The scheduled release brings another opportunity to pick up Microsoft’s best Xbox console on the market, reworked with a limited-edition black and gold design, taking cues from its next installment of the shooter.

The Halo Infinite controller draws a metallic green finish, inspired by franchise icon Master Chief.

The restock launches exclusively to GameStop PowerUp Rewards Pro members, with three releases scheduled over consecutive days. Orders for the Halo Infinite Xbox Series X console bundle open at 11 a.m. ET / 8 a.m. PT on Oct. 12, while the themed Xbox Elite Controller Series 2 follows at the same time on Oct. 13.

GameStop also launches a “Halo Super Fan Bundle,” an all-inclusive package containing Halo Infinite Xbox Series X, Elite controller, and Razer Kaira Pro headset at 11 a.m. ET / 8 a.m. PT on Oct. 14.

GameStop has promised early access to members with PowerUp Rewards Pro, its annual subscription, available from $14.99 per year. This paid membership is one of the better opportunities to snag in-demand hardware, limiting access to just a subset of customers. You can pick up a membership below for an opportunity to purchase a console via the program.

GameStop PowerUp Rewards Pro also brings various benefits to regular customers, including bonus reward points, monthly credit, and access to Game Informer. However, early access to the latest consoles, graphics cards, and other in-demand products helps justify the upfront cost to avoid high resell prices.

The Halo Infinite Xbox Series X bundle launches on Nov. 15, ahead of Halo Infinite‘s slated Dec. 8 release date. The star-speckled device features metallic grey and gold highlights, drawing inspiration from the game’s sci-fi world, coupled with a blue-tinted fan and custom sounds. The bundle includes the console, an exclusive controller, and one copy of Halo Infinite, priced at $550 in the U.S.

Nov. 15 also sees the launch of the Xbox Elite Controller Series 2, reinvented around the protagonist, Master Chief. Green and black paneling, custom decals, and a blue-tinted LED provide a signature Halo Infinite-inspired look. It also retains the same functionality as other Series 2 gamepads, including interchangeable components, adjustable thumbsticks and triggers, plus an overall premium in-hand feel.

Halo Infinite: Is it Available on Xbox Game Pass?

Halo Infinite is the latest mega Xbox exclusive coming in December 2021, but will it be on Xbox Game Pass?

Several of the biggest releases on Xbox are now being released via the subscription service, with Microsoft looking to make it the biggest and best value available in gaming.

Here’s everything we know about Halo Infinite and whether it will be coming to Xbox Game Pass.

The latest game in the massive Halo franchise is set to release on Wednesday 8th December 2021. Master Chief’s newest outing has been a long time coming, with development plans having to be pushed back on several occasions.

With Halo Infinite finally being released, there are a number of different versions that fans will be able to pre-order and purchase to experience the first true Halo title on next-gen consoles.

Is Halo Infinite on Xbox Game Pass?

The release of Halo Infinite will see the game made available for retail sale as well as downloadable on Xbox Game Pass.

As noted, several major Xbox titles have been made available to download via the service, and Halo Infinite looks to be the biggest of 2021.

Several new titles are being added to the Xbox Game Pass Ultimate service each month, and it already offers a huge amount of gaming content from EA, Ubisoft, Indie developers and Microsoft themselves

Master Chief is joining Fall Guys ?

No word on when Fall Guys will land on Xbox and Switch yet though.

It has been known for quite some time that the PC and PlayStation success Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout is coming to both Switch and Xbox, although we haven’t got a firm release date as of yet. But thanks to the account Pancake – Fall Guys Leaks on Twitter, we have now got a sign of life that might indicate that the launch isn’t too far off.

Thanks to data mining, three costumes have been discovered in the game:

• costume_event_falcon_01: Master Chief
• costume_event_falcon_02: Chieftain
• costume_event_falcon_03: Grunt

A reasonable guess is that it arrives either around the time when Xbox has the 20th anniversary on November 15 or when Halo Infinite launches on December 8.

Even though leaks like these are fairly reliable, it’s still no confirmation, so take this with a grain of salt until it’s official.
