New Halo Infinite trailer focuses on antagonist Escharum

Dude's intense.

A new Halo Infinite trailer focuses on antagonist Escharum, leader of the Banished.

Spoiler: Escharum is intense.

“Humanity clings to the belief that a savior will come, that a hero will rise, shrouded in armor to save you,” he says in the video.

“It won’t. Armor can be broken. Bodies shattered. When you look back on these last days, you will realise that all you’ve built was a tomb. A place where hope dies.”

Today’s new trailer comes hot on the heels of a single-player campaign reveal offered up earlier in the week. Stevivor’s Ben and Steve discuss that content at length as part of the latest Friendly Fire Show.

Halo Infinite heads to Windows PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series S & X and Xbox Cloud Gaming on 8 December, part of Xbox Game Pass. Microsoft has just announced a shiny limited edition Xbox Series X console bundle and Elite Xbox Wireless Controller.
