Halo Infinite Trailer Focuses on the Menacing War Chief Escharum and The Banished

Halo Infinite is about a month and a half away from launch now, and as its long-awaited release approaches, Microsoft and 343 Industries have well and truly kicked the game’s marketing into gear. Just recently, we got our first proper look at the single player campaign in well over a year, showing significant improvements over the 2020 showing, and now, we’ve got another trailer focusing on the solo side of the experience.

The new trailer is focused entirely on The Banished, the primary antagonists of Halo Infinite. More specifically, the trailer focuses on War Chief Escharum, the leader of The Banished who has control of Zeta Halo and is threatening to destroy the Master Chief and obliterate the UNSC’s surviving forces. His menacing monologue here is rather similar to his appearances in previous showings, but it’s pretty well done. Check it out below.

Halo Infinite launches on December 8 for Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, and PC.
