I’ve been writing about video games, television and movies for Forbes for over 10 years, and you may have seen my reviews on Rotten Tomatoes and Metacritic. I cover all manner of console and PC games, but if it’s about looting or shooting, I’m definitely there. If I’m watching something, it’s usually science fiction, horror or superheroic.
As I’ve said before, Halo Infinite is good now, and that has never been more true after season 5 launched with awesome an awesome Flood theme, Forge AI and the return of Firefight to the Halo franchise.
These are better figures than we’ve seen previously. June’s season 4 launch barely moved the needle. 5,500 peak players to 8,300. Before that, season 3 did 6,000 to 12,906. Better, still less than season 5 here. So yeah, good news!But there are some…caveats here. There’s the issue that Halo has just…never had that many players on Steam at baseline pastat launch when it had 256,619.
