If you’re still stuck on level 1 of the Halo InfiniteBattle Pass? 343 Industries is making important changes to progression this week. “To address the feedback on Battle Pass progression we will be making targeted tunings to our model later this week,” says Halo community manager John Junyszek.
The existing Halo Infinite Battle Pass makes it difficult to level up, as you’re limited to completing daily or weekly challenges instead of earning XP for every game you play. While that isn’t changing yet, 343 Industries is adding “Play 1 game” challenges “to help make sure you consistently progress through the Battle Pass by playing matches the way you want,” according to Junyszek.
We will make targeted tunings to our model this week in response to the feedback regarding Battle Pass progression.
To get you started, we’ll be adding “Play 1 Game” challenges to help you continue your progress through the Battle Pass. This will allow you to play matches as you wish.

343 Industries will also be removing weekly challenges and fixing bugs among others, but this change comes at a small cost. “When we make this update, we’ll need to reset your challenges, including your progress towards weekly ones,” explains Junyszek. “To make up for this reset, we’ll be granting this week’s Ultimate Reward, the Sigil Mark VII Visor, to everyone who logs in from November 23rd to November 30th.”
XP boosts will now last for an hour, instead of 30 minutes. This will allow for Big Team Battles to be played longer. We could see more changes to the XP system and progression systems. Halo Infinite In the future, too. “We’ll be watching these changes closely to make sure they have the positive impact we all want on your progression,” says Junyszek. “This is only our first step – we are committed to continue evolving these systems but it will take time.”
Criticism of the Halo InfiniteBattle Pass progression is becoming more louder in the community of HaloFans this week after the surprise release of Halo InfiniteMonday multiplayer. Multiplayer previews this summer felt like a thrilling return to form. However, we were concerned about the Battle Pass progression system and XP systems. 343 Industries went ahead with the same systems despite concerns raised by many during the technical previews.
It’s encouraging to see quick changes, though. This is the opening Halo InfiniteThe season will continue until May, double the original three months. That extra time could be why 343 Industries kept the slow Battle Pass progression in the first place, but we’ll have to check out the changes later this week to see if they make a big difference.
