Halo Infinite - Winter Contingency

The latest limited-time event for Halo Infinite is now live with Winter Contingency. Available till January 4th 2022, the Christmas-themed event adds new shoulder pads, a new armor coating, name plates and more for players to unlock in a new Event Pass.

Unlike Fracture: Tenrai, there’s no dedicated playlist but players also don’t have to complete specific Challenges. Simply log in, play a match and the item will be yours. A new item is available each day so even if one chooses to wait, they can simply log in and claim all of the rewards at once.
