It has been a contentious few months forHalo Infiniteas 343 Industries continues to work on the game and attempts to fulfill fan expectations of its critically acclaimed shooter. However, fans of the game should have cause to celebrate soon. In a recent Halo Waypoint blog post, 343 announced the addition of fan-favorite voice actor Jeff Steitzer in Season 2 of Big Team Battle inHalo Infinite.
Halo Infinite’s multiplayer launched in November of last year to the surprise of many fans.Infinite’s first season, Heroes of Reach, has been ongoing since launch and, at five months in length, is slated to be the longest season the game will have.

One addition that fans have been clamoring for since launch is adding Jeff Steitzer’s voice to Big Team Battle. The iconic voice actor can be heard in each ofHalo Infinite’s Arena game modesbut has been notably absent from BTB.Halosimply isn’t the same for most fans when Steitzer isn’t calling out player-earned medals. Thankfully, Steitzer’s iconic voice is back in full force for BTB, starting with Season 2 when it launches on May 3. 343 Industries has also outlined the contents of incoming updates as they roll out through Season 2.
Halo Infinite’s Season 2 is gearing up to contain some of the most significant updates for the game so far. In addition to Jeff Steitzer’s voice, players can expect to see Breaker, a new map added to Big Team Battle, along with the addition of maps Catalyst and Attrition for the Arena game modes. On the PC side, 343 Industries has stated that they are working to fix various stability issues and have resolved numerous crashes—a step in the right direction toward fixingHalo Infinite’s multiple bugs.
There is a long way to go before 343’s full vision forHalo Infiniteis complete. The game still lacks a Forge mode, and fans have been waiting for any news surrounding the co-op campaign. However, it appears that even theHalo Infinitedevs are aware that fan patience is running dry. New content for the game has been released at a glacial pace, and fans are stating that there is too little content for long-term enjoyment. In any case, Season 2 ofHalo Infiniteappears to be a more robust update overall, not only adding Jeff Steitzer’s voice to Big Team Battle but also adding more maps and potentially resolving various technical issues. Season 1 is coming to a close, and perhaps Season 2 will seeHalo Infinitestart its journey in becoming a more fully realized version of itself.
Halo Infiniteis available now for PC, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S.
