Halo Infinite Season 2: Lone Wolves is here, bringing with a brand new Battle Pass with 100 tiers of free and Premium rewards, new challenges, new events, and more. Here’s everything you can unlock in this new season so far…As well as finally giving us the last of the Halo Infinite achievements by making the ‘MEDIC!’ achievement obtainable (despite earlier reports to the contrary), Season 2 of Halo Infinite’s multiplayer suite adds a Spar-ton of new unlockable goodies, with a bunch of stuff in the free Battle Pass and even more in the Premium one. To progress through the pass, you’ll need to complete Daily and Weekly Challenges to earn XP, with 1,000XP total progressing you one tier.

We’ve signed in across multiple accounts this week to get this work-in-progress master Challenge list together as best we could, but as you can see, it’s likely that we’re still missing some unique ones and some of the other variants, as most appear to have multiple possible tiers of difficulty. We’ll add to this as best we can each week, and feel free to give us a hand by mentioning any we haven’t encountered yet down in the comments so we can get them added. Once you complete all 20 of your assigned Weekly Challenges, the Ultimate Challenge will unlock, leading to a special new item for your dedication. Ultimates are the same for all players, with this week’s being particularly easy as it simply asks that you play the new Last Spartan Standing mode three times. Some players are reporting that leaving early (even after losing all their lives and being prompted that it is safe to leave) is causing progress to not track properly, so you might want to stick around until the end of the match just to be on the safe side, with this and other Last Spartan Standing Challenges.In addition, note that the Daily Challenges offer diminishing returns as you complete them sequentially each day — 300XP for your first match, 200XP for the next two, 100XP for the following three, then 50XP, so you’ll make better progress simply by playing a handful of matches a day then waiting for those Daily rewards to refresh. Also, pay close attention to the wording in challenge text. Challenges that name-check a specific mode naturally can only be worked towards in the listed mode, while those that explicitly mention ‘PvP’ will only work in full player lobbies and not in Bot Bootcamp. If neither are in the text, chances are Bot Bootcamp matches will award progress just fine, which is often an easy way to tick off a Challenge, so long as any required modes or weapons are in rotation there. Finally, don’t forget about your Challenge Swap consumables. These can be used to replace a particularly nasty Challenge with another from the pool, although there are of course no guarantees that the new one will be any better. Still, if you’re playing fairly regularly, you should have enough of these to banish a few rough Challenges per week — they pop up every few tiers on the free Battle Pass and just playing six quick matches a day is enough to get exactly one tier’s worth of XP before you even factor in Weekly Challenges and any other bonuses, so don’t be afraid to nuke any Weeklies you really don’t like the sound of. Next up, let’s look at Season 2’s first event…Halo Infinite Season 2: Interference event and rewards (May 3rd to May 16th)Along with the new Battle Pass and all the other good stuff that Season 2 brings with it, we’ve also got a new event with its own free mini-pass to work through by completing Event Challenges. Interference runs for two weeks and ends on May 16th, so here’s a quick look at what’s up for grabs during this time.TierRarityTypeArmor CoreName1RareBackdropN/AIratus2EpicAI ColorN/ACastor’s Keeper3RareStanceN/ASafety Off4EpicWeapon CoatingN/AOnyx Timberwolf (MK50 Sidekick)5EpicHelmetRakshasaShikari6RareChestRakshasaAAP/Kard Plate7RareKnee PadsRakshasaUA/Type PTL8EpicWeapon CoatingN/AOnyx Timberwolf (S7 Sniper)9RareVisorRakshasaWulfenite Eyes10LegendaryHelmet AttachmentN/ATAS[2]/PatternwolfSo how do you rank up in this limited-time event? Simple — Weekly Challenges that have the little orange banner on them are Event Challenges that contribute to progress in Interference, so you might want to prioritise these if there’s something in this pass that you want, since this lot will only be around for two weeks while the Battle Pass content will be available all season, or forever if you go Premium. All current Event Challenges are related to the new Last Spartan Standing mode, so you’ll be getting plenty of practice in there if you have your sights on any of these Interference goodies. Remember that you don’t need to take the weapon upgrade immediately after reaching a score threshold, and can sit on it if you’d prefer to keep your current weapon than the one at the next tier up, then look to skip right to a later weapon.Next, let’s break down everything you can earn this season by ranking up. Please note that you can only have one active Battle Pass at a time, so if you’re still working through Season 1, you’ll need to switch to the Season 2 Battle Pass manually in order to start making progress through the new one. As for older Battle Passes, you cannot switch back to expired free passes, only ones that you have bought.

TrophyPremium100LegendaryWristMark VIIDeaconcrest Shield NodeFree100LegendaryRight Shoulder PadRakshasaSkullbearer TrophyPremiumWhile the cool new Rakshasa Armor Core is included in the free tier of the Battle Pass, you won’t be able to customise it an awful lot without forking out some Credits — the vast majority of the interesting modifications for the new core are only available via the Premium pass, with most of the free ones instead being for the stock Mark VII core. Otherwise, it’s more or less the expected blend of consumables every few levels, some pretty neat new cosmetics, and some questionable ones… who here is hyped to grind their way to tier 97 to arm themselves with a useless little shovel? Please, don’t all speak up at once.Like many other premium passes in live service-style games, Halo Infinite’s Season 2 Premium Battle Pass offers enough Credits to earn the next season’s pass through play, with a total of 1,000 Credits (which, conveniently, is exactly how much the Premium Pass costs) up for grabs so long as you can scale the dizzy heights of tier 95 by the time the next season rolls around. 343 has made some improvements to progression, so between this and the fact that Season 2 is set to be another long one and run until November, you should have plenty of time to earn all those Credits — and all that other stuff — in plenty of time for Season 3. Finally, let’s look at what’s new in Season 2, and what is still to come over the course of the Lone Wolves season…What’s new in Halo Infinite Season 2?New game modes — Last Spartan Standing (available now) is a 12-player Free For All multi-life elimination style mode where kills upgrade your weapons as you battle to stay inside a shrinking safe zone (a mini battle royale, effectively), King of the Hill (available now) is a rework of the classic mode and the original version also returns via Custom Games, and Land Grab (due May 24th) is a new multi-zone control mode.New maps: Catalyst (Arena) and Breaker (Big Team Battle) are both available now.New playlist: Rumble Pit is an eight-player playlist that incorporates all kinds of Free For All modes, in keeping with Season 2’s Lone Wolves name.New store content, which refreshes weekly.Coming soon to Halo Infinite Season 2Event: Fracture (week one of six starts May 24th), which will revolve around the new Land Grab mode that drops at the same time, and will have its own mini-pass of 30 rewards, including the exclusive Eaglestrike Armor Core and various cosmetics for it.Event: Alpha Pack (begins July 19th, runs for two weeks), similar to the current Interference event and once again coming with its own ten-tier mini-pass of exclusive rewards.Campaign co-op and story mission replay, both currently targetting late August.For even more info, check out the full Season 2 patch notes.And… breathe. There’s a lot going on in Halo Infinite Season 2, so let us know below if you’re enjoying the new stuff, if you’re only back for the last achievement(s), if you’re holding off for more features, or whatever your Infinite journey looks like so far… and please do let us know if you come across any Weekly Challenges we haven’t seen yet so we can crowd-source the ultimate master list!
