Halo Infinite Co-Op Campaign: Release Date, How to Play & More

There’s nothing better than playing through a Halo campaign with your friends, rather than riding solo. With Master Chief’s latest adventure taking players across Zeta Halo in an enthralling open-world experience, some players may be itching to dive into this with their pals by their side once more. Unfortunately, things aren’t crystal clear regarding Halo Infinite’s co-op campaign at the time of writing but fear not, we’re here to explain everything you need to know about the upcoming feature.

Halo Infinite Co-Op Campaign Release Date

Unfortunately, we’ve got quite a bit of time to wait. Halo Infinite’s co-op campaign has been pushed back to May 2022 at the earliest, to fall in line with the release of the game’s multiplayer ‘Season 2.’

All we know, for now, is that developer 343 Industries plans to share more about Season 2, campaign co-op and Forge mode in January 2022. Whether or not we’ll get a confirmed release date for co-op campaign at that point remains to be seen.

How to Play Co-Op Campaign in Halo Infinite

To play the co-op campaign in Halo Infinite, load up the game and select ‘Campaign’ from the main menu. At this point, once the update introducing co-op functionality goes live, you should find yourself in a lobby screen.

At this point, invite your friends to join your Fireteam by accessing the social menu (View button), selecting their names from your friends list and then selecting the ‘Invite’ button. We’ve got a complete breakdown on how to add Xbox and PC friends on the other, should you need a hand adding friends from other platforms, too.

Once all of your friends have got into your Fireteam, simply press the ‘Play’ button as you normally would. You’ll now all be thrown into Master Chief’s epic adventure against the Banished, together.

How Many Players Can Play Co-Op Campaign

At the time of writing, developer 343 Industries has yet to officially confirm how many players will be able to play through Halo Infinite’s campaign together in co-op.

However, if previous entries are anything to go by, you can expect up to four players to be able to play through Master Chief’s adventure across Zeta Halo.

Should anything else be confirmed once this guide has been published, we’ll update this post and let you know.
