When the Gauntlet mode came out last month (May 2026], I was excited. A new and challenging Firefight type mode, with a twist.
immediately, my best from Poppin Cheevies and I dug in and played the heck out of it.
Challenging indeed!

But we started to find some cool spots on the maps an decided to make a project out of find more or even breaking the maps, if possible.

The video below is the result of two weeks worth of gaming and a week of Poppin making the vid, while I helped with editing choices and made the thumbnail for it.

Here’s the thumbnail. I took the Gauntlet Key Art in Photoshop, deleted the existing Spartans and replaced them with Me, Poppin, and two of our friends, that also helped, as well as added our Gamertag banners. I also grabbed the text from the Gauntlet reveal video and added them to the thumbnail for continuity sake.

A great deal of work went into this whole project. I hope you enjoy it and use the video as a sort of tutorial for yourselves to play Halo Infinite’s Gauntlet in a new way!

Also, if you find areas, we didn’t discover, please feel free to message me on Twitter/X @HaloFanForLife!

This Saturday 6/6/2026, as seen in this month’s Halo Twitch activity calendar, the Resonant Element armor coating in Halo Infinite drops! You can see some of the other drops in the calendar below,

My bud, Poppin Cheevies, saw it and posted a pic of the coating hex from haloinfinitenews.com site to our group chat.

I then searched on the net and found the coating applied to a few armor cores.

Gives me Pittsburgh Sports teams vibes! As a native and resident of the ‘Burgh, this pleases me.
