Halo Infinite's Winter Update Is Bringing Heaps Of Weapon Balance Changes

343 Industries has revealed more about the Halo Infinite Winter Update that’s scheduled to drop on November 8, this time introducing a whole lot of weapon balance fixes that’ll be coming to the sandbox mode. A few weapons will be getting buffs to encourage players to use them more, while overperforming weapons will see small nerfs–here’s what’s changing.
Community manager Unyshek explains in the blog post that 343 has started looking at weapon balance in Halo Infinite’s sandbox now that players are a little more familiar with the gameplay. Looking at both player feedback and hard data on how weapons are getting used in game, six of Halo Infinite’s weapons are getting tweaked for better or for worse.
