The XP system for the Battle Pass in Halo Infinite has caused a lot of excitement in the community. Slow progress has frustrated fans and developers. Today, 343 Industries is planning to implement an improvement.
In a thread on Twitter, John Junyszek, the community manager of Halo developer 343 Industries, announced changes to the Battle Pass system (via Twitter).
What is the change? For the first matches you play each day, you’ll earn more XP for the Battle Pass than before. The new XP rewards are as follows:
- 1st Match: 300 XP
- 2nd Match: 200 XP
- 3rd Match: 200 XP
- 4th Match: 100 XP
- 5th Match: 100 XP
- 6th Match: 100 XP
- Each additional match: 50 XP
How does this change help? One level in the Battle Pass requires 1,000 XP. So the first 6 matches of the day would provide enough XP to level up completely. This XP change is set to be implemented today.
This is already the second improvement to the XP system that 343 Industries has made since the launch. Shortly after the surprising release of the Halo Infinite multiplayer, it was introduced that you earn 50 XP for each match, instead of just for the 1st match each day.
Today’s step is significantly more generous: with the first 6 matches of the day, you now earn 1,000 XP – which corresponds to 20 matches under the previous system.
If you use a double XP booster for the first 6 matches, you can even guarantee 2,000 XP in a day – regardless of any additional challenges you complete.
Battle Pass even frustrated developers of Halo Infinite
Why are these changes coming? This adjustment comes after much excitement in the community about the Battle Pass system. Halo’s design lead, Jerry Hook, also commented on this on November 29. On Twitter, he said that he feels “the pain of others” when playing and thus improvements are being made:
Will there be further changes? Today’s update is the first step. Junyszek also announced on Twitter that further steps are planned but will take time (via Twitter).
