Cyber Showdown was a multiplayer event held for Halo Infinite. It was held between January 18 and January 31, 2022 during Season 01: Heroes of Reach.[1][2] It was succeeded by Cyber Showdown II and III in Season 04: Infection and during the January, 2024 update, respectively.[3]

Cyber Showdown content[edit]

The first non-recurring event of Halo Infinite, Cyber Showdown's content could originally be earned through a 10 tier event pass over the course of its two week tenure. Ten of the twenty weekly challenges would be replaced with event-specific challenges, each rewarding an additional 100 XP, and a level up in the pass upon completion. While Fractures: Tenrai had challenges exclusive to Fiesta, Cyber Showdown's were exclusive to Attrition.[1]

Visor options unlocked through Cyber Showdown would become available on all armor cores during the August, 2022 drop pod in Season 02: Lone Wolves. The armor and weapon coatings would be made available on all of their respective cores with the release of Fleetcom in July of 2024. Rewards earned through Cyber Showdown's event pass would eventually be added to the Exchange during Fleetcom and Haloween.

Weekly rewards[edit]

Two unique weekly challenges with exclusive rewards were available during Cyber Showdown, a visor, and a weapon skin. Like the challenges used to earn levels in the event pass, these weekly challenges were tied to Attrition, and would unlock a Cyber Showdown-themed cosmetic option. Like the event pass' content, these rewards would be added to the Exchange during Haloween and Last Stand.
