With Halo Infinite's release now just about a month away, it appears the Microsoft marketing machine is set to kick into high gear. The Halo Twitter account posted a teaser on Monday that suggests some kind of new Halo Infinite marketing campaign is about to begin.
"UNSC Archives accessed. Contained within are the untold stories of humanity and heroism behind the Master Chief. Stay tuned for further transmissions," the tweet said, with the word "Become" as a hashtag. You can check out the video below and see if you can spot any secrets.

While Halo Infinite doesn't release until early December, November will mark the 20th anniversary of Xbox and Halo, and Microsoft is celebrating with a livestream on November 15. That's also the day that the Halo Infinite-inspired Xbox Series X console and a 20th anniversary controller go on sale.
Halo Infinite was originally supposed to launch in 2020, but Microsoft delayed the game a full year due in part to the shift to working from home as a result of the pandemic. The game is now scheduled for release on December 8 across PC, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S.
In a big change-up for the series, the multiplayer element is a free standalone game, while the campaign is a separate, paid product. Both are available with Game Pass, however.
