A promotional image for the Tech Preview

The Halo Infinite Multiplayer Tech Preview was a phase in the development of Halo Infinite, produced by 343 Industries and organized by Microsoft. Signing in the Halo Insider Program gave players access to the Tech Preview^[1], which will be made available on July 29, 2021 and it will end on August 1, 2021. A live stream of the Tech Preview will be shown on July 28, 2021.^[2]

The focus of this technical preview are the 4v4 (players versus bots) multiplayer matches, Academy's Weapon Drills, and UI tests on Infinite's Battle Pass, Challenges, Menu, and Spartan Customization. Concurrent with this tech preview, a new version of Halo Waypoint will be tested.^[1] Customisation options available will be a small selection of those available in Season 00: For Our Tomorrow's battle pass.
