Almost six months after Halo Infinite's launch, the developers at 343 are ready to release season 2 of the shooter's free-to-play multiplayer mode. Titled "Lone Wolves," the new season will kick off on May 3, 2022, across Xbox and PC. Throughout the season, players will get two new maps, new modes, narrative events, new cosmetics, and, eventually, the long-awaited online co-op update for Halo Infinite's campaign.
Most Halo Infinite players keeping up with the game's roadmap probably know that the season is starting tomorrow, May 3, but what time does it start? Here's what Halo fans need to know before diving into all the new content, like the returning King of the Hill mode.
What Time Does Halo Infinite Season 2 Start?
Halo Infinite Season 2 will start at the same time globally. The release times across several regions/time zones are as follows:
- 11 AM PT, May 3, Seattle
- 1 PM CT, May 3, Chicago
