Xbox Fans Think Back To Halo Infinite Feature Finally Made Famous In 2024
“Halo Infinite did this first but nobody cared”

Prior to the launch of Halo Infinite in 2021, Xbox fans were very excited for a new era of Halo multiplayer, especially when it contained consumer-friendly features like free-to-play online access and battle pass progression that never expired. Over the course of the game’s life cycle, Halo Infinite has had a mixed reception overall – but that battle pass feature is being remembered fondly after two huge 2024 titles have now copied it.
The recently-released Marvel Rivals and Sony PlayStation’s Helldivers 2 have been some of the biggest live service games of the last year-or-so, and they both feature battle pass-like progression systems that don’t have a time limit. These two new releases have gotten some recognition online for this feature – with Xbox fans quick to remind folks that it was actually 2021’s Halo Infinite that implemented it first.
