With six minutes of new Halo Infinite campaign footage to chew on, we spend a lot of time in this episode reacting to the footage we’ve all been waiting over a year to see. We talk about the open world, the improved graphics, the ray tracing (or the lack thereof), the boss battles (?), and more! Plus: Halo’s former art director stars a new studio at EA, and we dream about what he might be making. Also, don’t miss Echo Generation and Moonglow Bay on Xbox Game Pass this week!
