I hope you’ve got your reading hat on, because if Halo 4 is making you tingle with excitement we’ve got a huge heap of info for you.
The UNSC Infinity – the largest starship in the UNSC fleet – is your gateway to the “Halo” Infinity Multiplayer experience in Halo 4 and serves as the centre of your Spartan career. Here you’ll build your custom Spartan-IV super soldier, and progress your multiplayer career across the brand-new episodic Spartan Ops campaign, and the multitude of competitive War Games modes.
Earn experience and unlock all-new Specialisations in both Spartan Ops and War Games as you earn new ranks. In addition, the Halo 4 Limited Edition and Halo 4 War Games Map Pass will provide even more opportunities to establish your legacy on the battlefield.
Activate Specialisations to Earn New Ranks and Equipment
With eight Specialisations in Halo 4, you can achieve higher ranks in your Spartan career once you progress beyond level 50. As you level up through these dedicated paths, you will earn a bristling arsenal of combat-enhancing armour mods that provide even more options to customise your Spartan-IV to fit your preferred role on the battlefield. In addition, armour sets, emblems, visor colours, weapon and armour skins unique to each Specialisation distinguish your Spartan-IV from other players in Halo Infinity Multiplayer. For detailed descriptions of the eight Specialisations and their unique armour mods, visit Halo Waypoint.
Two Specialisations – Wetwork and Pioneer – will be available to all players when Halo 4 launches on 6 November. The remaining six Specialisations are available by pre-ordering the standard Halo 4 game (£49.99 ERP) exclusively at GAME and gamestation stores. Alternatively, all eight Specialisations are included in the Halo 4 Limited Edition (£69.99 ERP). All Specialisations will gradually be made available to download through Xbox LIVE in the months following launch.
