Halo Infinite is here, and the Shop lets you customize your Spartan with exclusive items.
Halo Infinite is in the hands of players with the Halo Infinite Multiplayer Beta, which includes the entire online experience; complete with the Season 1 Battle Pass, Arena and Big Team Battle game modes, and the Halo Infinite Shop. The Shop, in particular, lets players customize their Halo Infinite experience by purchasing the aforementioned Battle Pass, taking advantage of exclusive deals and offers, and more. It also refreshes daily and weekly, meaning there's always something new to consider.
Here's what you need to know about the Halo Infinite Shop, what's available this week, and what you should consider buying.
What is the Shop in Halo Infinite?
Halo Infinite's multiplayer is completely free-to-play and features a ton of content with the informative Academy, several game modes like Arena and Big Team Battle, and the promise of future updates with new content, limited-time events, and much more. There's already a lot to love, but players can add to their Halo Infinite experience with in-game purchases through the Halo Infinite Shop. This Shop only features cosmetic items and consumables, none of which ever provides players with an in-game advantage or power-up.
Still, it's a great way to personalize your Halo Infinite Spartan and express yourself however you want. Players can purchase premium Credits for real-world money to spend in the Halo Infinite Shop. Through the Shop, you can purchase Battle Passes, consumables to accelerate progress in the Battle Pass, browse limited-time bundles and events, and take advantage of weekly and daily deals. Some of the cosmetic items offered through the Shop include armor, weapon coatings, armor coatings, and more.
The Halo Infinite Shop refreshes its weekly deals and offerings every Tuesday at 10:00 a.m. PT, so players know exactly how much time they have to consider purchasing something. This also means new (and potentially exclusive) gear and items can be purchased from the Halo Infinite Shop every week, so it's worth logging in just to see what's available. The Halo Infinite Shop also occasionally features freebies that players can redeem without spending Credits. Everything in the Shop is entirely optional, and it's completely up to players to decide what they're interested in and willing to purchase.
How to buy from the Halo Infinite Shop
If you want to buy something from the Halo Infinite Shop, you'll need to first pick up some Halo Infinite Credits from the Microsoft Store or Steam. These Credits are a premium currency, meaning they'll cost you real money to purchase. Don't worry; no one gets an in-game advantage or performance boost in Halo Infinite no matter how many credits they buy — these Credits are only good in the Shop, and only for cosmetic items.
There are five bundles for Halo Infinite Credits, and you can pick and choose depending on how many Credits you need or want to add to your account. If you choose to invest in a larger bundle of Credits, you'll get bonus Credits for no additional cost, which may encourage you to spend a little more. Roughly, each Credit is worth one cent USD, so that 100 Credits is the equivalent of $1. Here are the different tiers, and where you can buy them:
Halo Infinite Credits
$5 at Xbox (500 Credits) $10 at Xbox (1,000 Credits) $20 at Xbox (2,200 Credits) $50 at Xbox (5,600 Credits) $100 at Xbox (11,500 Credits)
Halo Infinite handles all of its in-game purchases through optional Credits, which can be spent on purchasing Battle Passes, Shop offers, and more. There are a variety of Credits options, with higher-end selections providing bonus Credits.
