Halo Infinite: DataMiner find alternative weapons variants and show them in the video

Detainees have discovered a feature in the Code of Halo Infinite that we already know from its predecessor Halo 5: Guardians. These are different variants of known weapons equipped with changed stats or certain additional functions. We'll explain you briefly what is probably behind the find.

Special weapons in Halo Infinite

How to function Weapon variants: In Halo 5, we were able to find special weapons that are basically look and function like the regular woven in the game, but have one or more special skills. As a rule, there is a boost for a stat and in return a deduction in another category. Thus, these weapons variants promote other play styles.

An example: You can find a sniper rifle that is inaccurate than the normal version, but shoots faster and has a larger magazine. That makes the weapon also useful for fire habits on a medium distance. For very large distances, however, it is no longer suitable.

Overall, the Detainees could find five such weapons variants in the Code of Halo Infinite and even try it out. In the video you can see how these work (via Reddit):

And here is a list of the special weapons shown:

Convergence Bulldog (larger magazine, less scattering) MA40 (AR) Long shot (smaller magazine, larger zoom) S7 (Sniper) Flextime (larger magazine, faster shot rate, worse accuracy) BR75 (Pulse Carbine) Preacher (faster shot rate) Volatile skewer (spheres explode shortly after impact)

Not clear for which mode: It is not yet officially confirmed, but probably the special weapons will not be represented in the multiplayer. Instead, we get the weapons variants probably in the campaign when we defeat minibuses.

The campaign of Infinite you can see in the trailer:

So it goes with Halo Infinite

The popular shooter series around the Master Chief appears appeal. The Free2Play multiplayer has been available since mid-November. On 8 December then the campaign follows. However, you can only deny these alone for the time being. The coop mode follows — just like forge — only sometimes next year.
