Known in-game as the Weapons Bench, the weapon customization in Halo Infinite allow players to customize their weapon appearance.

Overview

Weapon customizations in Halo Infinite allows the player to apply their choice weapon coatings, charms, emblems, or kill effects. An entirely new feature was also made available through the game's myriad of weapon models. Unlocking any of the above can be done through seasonal Battle Passes, challenges, in-game events for both canon and Fractures, and by purchasing items through the Shop.

Somewhat akin to armor cores, weapon cores act as a uniform base aesthetic for the player's loadout in matchmaking. Season 01: Heroes of Reach introduced weapon models that would change or add geometry to the MA40 assault rifle, BR75 battle rifle, and the Mk50 Sidekick. This system would be overhauled in Season 04: Infection, allowing for deeper, unique visual changes that can entirely change the aesthetic of its respective weapon, with weapons models becoming a mainstay in weapon customization from Season 04 onwards.

Originally, Halo Infinite only supported UNSC weapons on the Weapons Bench, with the M392 Bandit being added during the launch of Season 03: Echoes Within in 2023. This roster would be expanded and filled out in 2025 with the launch of Last Stand and Shadows, which added all remaining weapons sans the Flaktura Workshop Skewer and the Meluth'qelos-pattern energy sword to the Weapons Bench.

Charms, emblems, and kill effects work on all weapon cores, while weapon models are distinctly exclusive to the weapon they're available for.
