Halo Infinite Season 5 New Content
The new Extraction mode is a more significant addition to Halo Season 5: Reckoning. This is intended to be a co-op option in which you and a group of friends or strangers claim locations on a map while competing against another group of people doing the same.
In Halo 4, the model made its debut. You may equate it to “capture the flag,” except here, the participants must defend the excavation site from opposing players. Prism and Forbidden, two new maps, will be introduced in Season 5: Reckoning.
According to Halo Infinite level designer Cliff Schuldt, Forbidden is set among old mossy ruins and is a two-part map.”On one side, the map is dried-up and dead, while the other side is lush and green, featuring ancient aqueducts that are channeling water around this massive stone complex,” Schuldt said in an interview with Halo Waypoint.
Prism is set in a cave system packed with the pinky-purple crystals that are used to produce ammunition for Halo’s iconic needler weapon, according to game mythology.

Halo Infinite Forge updates
The next big change is to the game’s Forge-level creator. We’re getting what the Halo team calls an “AI Toolkit” and more than 200 new blocks. The creator is calling this “Campaign AI,” and it gives you more control over how enemies appear and act, how they move, and whether they are friendly or enemies.
Conclusion: Halo Infinite Season 5, titled ‘Reckoning’, has two new levels, Prism and Forbidden, and a modified Extraction game style from Halo 4. Firefight King of the Hill mode and over 200 new Forge-level creator blocks enhance the game. These October 17 patches have revived Halo fans with a mix of nostalgic and creative gameplay.
