Halo 6: Yadba Cuts Loose was a joke script for Halo Infinite (which had yet to be announced at the time, and was known by the community as "Halo 6"), written by Nick Ardizzone. It focused on the exploits of the Unggoy Yabda "the Merciless", one of the announcers from Halo 5: Guardians, as he partakes in acts such as attempting to "befriend" Spartan Locke. The script was placed in the Halo Mannequin Challenge as an Easter egg.[1]
