Podtacular 872: Sharp and Lightish Red

This week, we talk a bit more in depth on the Extraction game mode and the new maps, Prism and Forbidden introduced in Season 5 of Halo Infinite multiplayer. We’ve had some time to get plenty of games and share our thoughts on the continued content delivery that continues to bring people back to Halo and new players exploring the scene. The next operation, Combined Arms is our first foray into the new events and battle pass structure introduced this season and Halo 3 Refueled is on its way as well.

Podtacular 871: A Dusty Delivery

After two months and a delivery later, Dust Storm returns to the microphone with Godzilla T to take a speedy look at the jam packed conclusion to Halo Infinite Season 4 and HCS Season 2. As we move into Season 5, Forge has never been more powerful, 343 continues to knock out new content out of the park and HCS will return for a Season 3 in Infinite! There’s so much stuff to bring up in one show we’re going to have to break it down a bit more where appropriate. We definitely recommend checking out our friends at HCS Pro Talk for all the HCS content in the meantime!
