Halo Infinite battle pass progression tied to challenges – not per-match XP

Halo Infinite doesn’t have per-match XP – battle pass progression is tied to challenges instead, 343 has clarified.

“Playing and winning matches will be challenges, which will help players progress through the battle pass,” Halo community manager John Junyszek tweeted.

“Even though this means no per-match XP at launch, you’re still always progressing through challenges and therefore the BP.”

Junyszek later clarified that “it’s extremely difficult to run out of daily challenges” – at least regarding 343’s current plans for launch.

“I won’t say ‘impossible,’ cause there are some grinders out there, but I’d be impressed.”

“Daily challenges for playing matches is the plan for launch,” Jerry Hook, head of design at 343, later tweeted. “But we’re always looking at ways to expand progression across the board. We’ll have more to share about the outcomes from key Tech Preview feedback, including this, in an upcoming blog on Waypoint.”
