The drop wall is a usable piece of equipment in ''[[Halo Infinite]]''. It can be deployed in combat to provide the player with a temporary shelter from enemy gunfire, and is capable of stopping both gunfire and grenades. Additionally, the player is still able to shoot through the deployed drop wall, at their enemies. However, it degrades easily under damage, so the respite it provides is temporary.{{Ref/Reuse|HICGP}} Each section of the energy shield can only withstand a certain amount of damage from the outside before that section fails. Multiple sections can fail without the entire drop wall shutting down.{{Ref/YouTube|Id=ANewGen|4i86Ckj8xKk|Halo|Halo Infinite <nowiki>|</nowiki> Multiplayer Reveal Trailer - A New Generation|Y=2021|M=6|D=15}} | The drop wall is a usable piece of equipment in ''[[Halo Infinite]]''.
