343 Industries has outlined what's coming up in Halo Infinite's next Droź§p Pod update, which is scheduled to release on August 9.
In a new , the studio behind ę¾³ę“²å¹øčæ5å¼å„å·ē åå²ę„čÆ¢:Halo Infinite confirmed that it is simplifying helmet customization but allowing all visors to work on all cores, even though previously, they were spread across the š¹five armor cores.
Following fan feedback - and despite "some complexities" - the update will also allow "certain" Mark VII helmet attachments to be worn across multiple Mark VII helmets. And while not every Mark VII āhelmet can be used "without clipping awkwardly or large gaps",šø "the total number of [customization] options has been greatly increased".
That's not all, either. More ranked playlists are onā the way, starting with Ranked Doubles, which will launch alongside a CSR reseš ·t two weeks after the Drop Pod's release. A social Team Doubles playlist will also be available.
"ź¦°We’ll moniš¦tor the health of Ranked Doubles and all our playlists after its addition to the matchmaking lineup. If all playlists continue to perform as expected, we’ll keep these additions and continue experimenting with adding more Ranked playlists in the future."
ICYMI, Halo Infinite campaign co-op will not offer online matchmaking even after the mode leaves beta. A representative for Xbox recently confirmed as much in a statement to GamesRadar+, while also recommendź§ing somš®e familiar alternatives to matchmaking.
"Online matchmaking will not be available with final co-op," the statement reads. "We encouraš³ge you to continue to use the Halo LFG and the new Discord voice call feature on Xbox to find players to party up with as you continue ź¦playing the beta."

Another player recently used the leaked mode to ę¾³ę“²å¹øčæ5å¼å„å·ē åå²ę„čÆ¢:recreate the brilliant P.T demo, too.
