Halo Infinite Multiplayer Gets First BTB Gameplay, Though the Preview Flight Might Be Delayed

343 Industries shared new Halo Infinite multiplayer footage, including the first look at Big Team Battle (a 12v12 mode), during yesterday's official live stream.

Interestingly, Big Team Battle will feature 'loot caves' which can be hacked to access powerful weapons.

BTB has 'loot caves' - Forerunner doors you can hack with your personal AI to access caches of powerful weapons. LOVE this idea! #HaloInfinite pic.twitter.com/j7RhPEZyNL

However, it seems like those eager to playing Halo Infinite multiplayer for the first time in the next Flight due to begin tomorrow may have to wait. The live stream opened with the developers hinting at a possible delay, though 343 Industries Community Director Brian Jarrard said it hasn't been decided either way.

Thank you to everyone for tuning into the live stream today! Awesome to share the team's work and very excited to play it together soon.
No updates on flight timing yet, we're in a holding pattern as work continues. We'll see how things are looking tomorrow AM and make the call.

As a reminder, the Halo Infinite multiplayer modes will be free once they release on December 8th alongside the paid story campaign. The game will be available on PC (via both Microsoft Store and Steam), Xbox One, and Xbox Series S|X; as with all Microsoft first-party games, it'll be playable on day one for Game Pass subscribers.
