The story mode of Halo Infinite starts on December 8th. At this point, a sad situation awaits the players. Because the game’s ability to replay individual story missions is removed. To replay episodes of Halo Infinite, you now need to open a new save.
The resulting complex situation originated from the semi-open world environment in Halo Infinite. While all missions take place in linear order, some require a player to travel around the world to clear a specific area. There is good news at this point. After clearing an area in the game and completing the story mission, you can go back to exploration.
Halo Infinite removed returning story mode
The first two missions of the game take place in Zeta Hola. When you are done, there is no way to return to these areas. That means you have to start a new save to play those missions again. Otherwise, it means that the missed collectibles cannot be accessed during that game.
Skulls stay locked in account. So they are not lost when a new recording is started. But for those who are replaying missions other than the first two, this means replaying the entire game in turn. Earlier Halo games gave players the option to easily jump into different missions via a dedicated menu. Made it easy to change difficulty and add skulls.
Microsoft representative clarified the situation
There’s plenty to do to keep even Halo Infinite fans busy for a while. The point where the players have problems is that they want to play again because the missions are so good. A Microsoft representative confirmed to Polygon that the story missions are not replayable. The representative stated:
Post-game gives you the option to explore the wider environment. However, like the first two, you cannot play the same save file for missions you haven’t played yet. You will be able to get the remaining FOBs, objectives and audio tracks, but the main story missions will not be repeated.
Two major Halo Infinite features, co-op story and Forge mode, launching in 2022. 343 Industries already announced in August that these are not coming out with the game.
