Just before the anticipated launch of the Halo Infinite campaign, the developing team shared good news for all the fans. The official Halo Support Twitter account reveals that those users who already have the Multiplayer beta installed won’t have to download a big-sized campaign. Moreover, the file will be significantly smaller in its overall size, which is quite surprising to witness. Because most of the heavy AAA releases these days require a huge chunk from the players’ device drives.
While sharing this news on Twitter, the Halo Support page mentioned that, in general, the download size of the Halo Infinite campaign may vary by platform. Halo Infinite is finally making its debut globally, following multiple delays over the last two years. It is the seventh main entry in the immensely popular gaming franchise.

Talking about the initial download size, then the Halo Infinite only requires approximately 25.86 GB of space. It’s applicable for those users who have already installed the Multiplayer Beta of the game. On the other hand, the multiplayer update only weighs around 3.97 GB, implying that the total file comes down to approximately 29.83 GB.
Speaking of the players who will install Halo from the scratch, then the file size is still very small. While the multilayer update requires roughly 26.53 GB of room, the game is even lighter at approximately 21.89 GB. This means that the complete file size comprising both the multiplayer and campaign is only around 48.42 GB.
As soon as this news became official, fans didn’t waste any time, expressing their joy. They couldn’t believe that a major AAA title like Halo Infinite doesn’t need a heavy space out of their platform’s drives, thus saving them from losing a huge amount of juice.
Take a look at some of the fan reactions to this latest update:

That is….a lot smaller than I expected.
Great! With my garbage internet, this means I'll be able to have the download finished before the end of the day.
