Halo Infinite Co-Op Campaign Release Date: When can we play the story with friends?

In a shock to the system, Xbox has launched the Halo Infinite multiplayer three weeks early, but we have to wait for the rest of the game still. One of the most popular features in Halo games is the co-op campaign, which is the preferred way to play for many people. If you’re looking forward to playing the new story with a friend, you’ll be wondering what the Halo Infinite co-op campaign‘s release date is. Well, we have everything you need to know.

Campaign Release Date

What we DO know is that Halo Infinite‘s campaign will release on December 8. The full game was initially supposed to release then, before the multiplayer was released early, so that’s when you’ll be able to experience the next chapter in the Halo story.

If you’re a Game Pass subscriber, you’ll be able to play Halo Infinite’s campaign at no extra cost. It won’t be free for absolutely everyone, like the multiplayer is, though.

We also know for sure that the co-op campaign will NOT release at the same time as the single-player campaign on December 8. You’ll have to wait for it.

Co-op Campaign Release Date

For now, the release date of Halo Infinite’s co-op campaign is unknown, but it’ll likely be a few months into 2022.

In a video a few months ago, Joseph Staten, Creative Lead at 343, said that they’re “targeting a campaign co-op launch with Infinite’s second season.”

Now that the multiplayer is out and Season 1 has begun, we know that Season 2 is due to begin sometime in May 2022. Exactly when in that month it’s going to arrive, we don’t know, but we’ll be sure to let you know as soon as it’s confirmed.

For now, the release of the co-op campaign hasn’t been confirmed for Halo Infinite’s second season, but that time would make sense as it’s one of the sequel’s most requested features.
