Fans of Halo Infinite will soon get to experience the game from an entirely new perspective, as developer 343 Industries has announced the introduction of a third-person mode set to launch in November. This long-awaited feature has been a major fan request for years, and 343 has finally answered with a surreal new gameplay video showcasing the mode.
The announcement was made via Twitter, where 343 shared the news along with a clip of the third-person mode in action. The video offers a glimpse of players toggling between first and third-person perspectives, providing a fresh way to experience the game’s combat and exploration.
While there are limited details available, the announcement hints that this feature may be restricted to certain game modes, but there’s a toggle for players to switch perspectives during gameplay.
The addition of third-person gameplay marks a significant shift for the Halo series, which has been rooted in the first-person shooter (FPS) genre for its entire 23-year history. Outside of vehicle and turret sequences, Halo games have never officially ventured into third-person territory. Reactions from the Halo community have been mixed, with some players celebrating the added gameplay options while others question whether 343’s resources could have been better allocated elsewhere.
