Halo Infinite received lots of love from fans and professional players when it was first launched in late 2021. However, many players expressed their disappointment knowing that the game did not support co-op features both in the local and online mode.

What is Halo Infinite Co-Op Beta?

The Halo Infinite co-op beta is similar to Halo Infinite beta version released earlier. The beta version is generally regarded as the work-in-progress version that 343 Industries has released so that the users can catch and report the bugs, glitches, and other issues. This ensures that these problems are removed and do not creep into the launch version of the Halo Infinite co-op.

Right now, it’s not clear how many players can play together in the co-op mode when the game is in beta mode. However, it will be safe to say that gamers will have the freedom to play at least one of the story missions of the game along with a large part of Halo Infinite’s open world. This will facilitate them to try their hands on the main portion of the gameplay.

It is also being speculated that the beta version will only be exclusive to one of the two platforms, and Xbox can be the ultimate choice.
