Brian Jarrard, 343’s community director, chimed in on Twitter to clarify the situation, writing, “Since a few folks have been asking about this–I can confirm that while various retailers around the world are expected to offer their own custom bundles, there is not an ‘official’ Collectors/Ultimate edition for Halo Infinite. Check your favorite retailer for options!”
So it looks like different retailers are throwing together a bunch of related Halo Infinite merchandise and goodies to make their own “Collector’s Edition” packages. As of right now, Walmart is the only retailer that is offering such a bundle. It comes with items like a replica Energy Sword lamp, steel book, and mini-artbook, all put together in a neat “Halo Infinite” branded outer box. It certainly looks “official,” if nothing else!
While this seems like a missed opportunity for such a big release, Microsoft has already celebrated Halo Infinite with its limited-edition Xbox Series X-themed console and Elite controller.
Halo Infinite launches on December 8 for PC, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S. The multiplayer portion will be free-to-play and the game is available on Day One for Xbox Game Pass members. So far, the Halo series has sold 81 million copies over its 20-year lifetime.
