The Falcon and Vestige Carbine comes to Halo Infinite on August 5

Halo Studios announced more features coming to Halo Infinite as it gets closer to its 4-year anniversary. It was revealed that The Falcon from Halo: Reach will arrive in Halo Infinite on Tuesday, August 5. The new weapon, Vestige Carbine, will also be coming to the game after a long wait, after it had been leaked.

The Falcon will spawn on a selection of Big Team Battle Maps and appear as a placeable and spawnable object in Forge.

Outfitted with a port-side grenade launcher and a heavy machine gun at starboard, this versatile warbird serves just as nobly in direct assaults as it does in medium-range troop deployments.

Between its cockpit, two passenger jump-seats, and dual gunner positions, the spacious Falcon seats up to five UNSC personnel—making it the perfect ride for aerial antics with the whole Spartan squad.

The Vestige Carbine is a semi-automatic rifle that fires green, radioactive projectiles with unwavering accuracy.

Wield the Vestige Carbine against puny humans in Banished Slayer, a new asymmetrical Slayer variant where teams carry either UNSC or Banished weaponry in a showdown for ultimate domination.

The Carbine and Falcon are part of Operation: Shadows, which begins August 5 and concludes on September 9. There will be a free 20-tier Operation Pass featuring the Whisper armor set. There will also be a 50-tier Premium Operation Pass that includes Bonus XP, an additional challenge slot, and instant customization unlocks.

In related news, Epic Games and Halo Studios revealed another new partnership to bring more Halo armor to Fortnite on August 7.
