At the moment, the Halo Infinite multiplayer playlists include Quick Play (a mixture of various four-on-four game modes), Ranked (for super serious, no-radar competition), Big Team Battle (massive 12-on-12 skirmishes), and Bot Arena (humans vs. CPUs), a far cry from the offerings in earlier games.

343 Industries is also reportedly working on a Social Slayer playlist, which in 2007’s Halo 3 threw together peripheral squad-based modes like Team Slayer, Team Rockets, and more, but that won’t be ready until sometime next year.

Let’s just hope the impending playlist updates keep the series’ notoriously fickle fanbase from giving the devs too much grief as they try to enjoy the holidays.
