Looking closely at the Master Chief’s viewer, you can see what appears to be the villain of the game, who may well be a member of The Banished, a faction confirmed to appear in Halo Infinite earlier this year. It could also be ‘Hyperious’, a character leaked by a Mega Bloks toy set that appeared online in early July. Master Chief also has a hook on his left wrist, adding credibility to the rumors about the Infinite game that emerged earlier this week.
