Almost a week ahead of Halo Infinite Season 3’s launch, developer 343 Industries has released new information about the upcoming updates maps and modes.
As previously shown in Season 3’s launch trailer, the season will introduce three new maps to Halo: Infinite. The first, Oasis, is a Big Team Battle map, set on red rocks in the process of terraforming to a verdant green. Basically everywhere on this map is vehicle accessible, meaning that you can take a warthog into the tunnels and buildings that populate the landscape. This offers both chaotic and strategic possibilities, especially for CTF.
The second is an arena map called Cliffhanger. This map is a snowy mountaintop, which hides an ONI research facility. Cliffhanger was designed with zone-control modes in mind. It’s asymmetric and the design team wanted to make each area feel unique and tactically different, depending on the mode you are playing the map in.
