'''''Halo Infinite''''' is the next mainline game in the ''Halo'' franchise. Scheduled for release in Holiday [[2020]] alongside the [[Xbox Series X]], ''Infinite'' will follow up on the events of [[2015]]'s ''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]'', which left off with the [[United Nations Space Command]] in tatters, [[John-117|the Master Chief]] stranded on [[Sanghelios]] and the {{UNSCShip|Infinity}} on the run, following an uprising by a group [[artificial intelligence]]s calling themselves [[Created|the Created]], led by [[Cortana]]. Now several years later, the Master Chief finds himself awoken on a [[Echo 216|Pelican]] by [[Echo 216's pilot|the Pilot]] and must face down the Created threat on a shattered [[Halo Array|Halo installation]].

[[File:HI E3 2019 Trailer John 117.PNG|thumb|left|200px]] '''[[John-117|Master Chief Petty Officer John-117]]''' is the main character of the ''Halo'' franchise, and the protagonist of ''Halo Infinite''. A [[SPARTAN-II program|SPARTAN-II]], he was kidnapped at the age of six by the UNSC's [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] and trained from a young age to be the "ultimate soldier", before being given biological augmentations and powerful [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor|MJOLNIR armour]]. Although originally conceived to fight [[Insurrection|human rebellions]], the Spartans proved invaluable in curbing onslaught of [[Covenant|the Covenant]], an alien conglomeration who declared [[human]]ity an affront to their gods and resolved to eradicate the entire species in [[2525]].

**Limited/Legendary Edition
The Master Chief is often credited with having saved humanity from extinction by preventing the activation of the [[Halo Array]], a set of seven ringworlds spread across the [[Milky Way|galaxy]] by the [[Forerunner]]s - the Covenant's gods. Believing the rings to be the key to the [[Covenant religion|Great Journey]] and hence a pathway to godhood, the Covenant attempted to activate the array. Unbeknownst to them, however, the rings' true purpose was to eliminate all life in the galaxy to stop the spread of a virulent parasite known as [[Flood|the Flood]]. In the conflict ensuing from their discovery, the Master Chief fought the Covenant, Flood and Forerunner [[Aggressor Sentinel|Sentinels]] across the surface of three Halo rings and ultimately [[Installation 00|the Ark]], where the rings were manufactured. With the help of an AI companion called Cortana, a number of UNSC [[Jacob Keyes|naval]] [[Miranda Keyes|officers]] and [[Avery Johnson|Marines]], a [[343 Guilty Spark|Forerunner monitor]] and [[Thel 'Vadam|a Covenant turncoat called "the Arbiter"]], the Master Chief was able to prevent the array's activation, eradicate the Flood and eliminate the Covenant's leadership, effectively ending the war.

**''[[Terminal/Halo 3|Terminals]]''
In the aftermath of these events, however, the Master Chief and Cortana were left stranded in interstellar space, after their ship was badly damaged in the escape from the Ark. They eventually came upon an artificial Forerunner planet known as [[Requiem]], where they unwittingly unleashed a surviving Forerunner warrior called [[Ur-Didact|the Didact]], who retained an age-old grudge against humanity. With the help of a powerful ship known as the UNSC ''Infinity'', the Master Chief was able to defeat him too, but at a cost: the seeming death of Cortana. Only a year later, however, Cortana returned, having been healed by a Forerunner technology known as the [[Domain]], now hell-bent on seizing control of the galaxy with the help of her Created allies, viewing the organic species as in need of their guidance and protection. ''Halo Infinite'' picks up a few years after her uprising, long after the apparent fall of the UNSC, with the ''Infinity'' and Master Chief on the run, and many of their allies defeated or in hiding.

[[File:HI Echo216Welcome.PNG|thumb|right|200px]] '''[[Echo 216's pilot|The Pilot]]''' is the pilot of the [[Pelican]] [[Echo 216]]. In [[2561]], he found himself stranded alone in his craft, above a shattered Halo installation. He had a wife and daughter, whom he was cut off from by the [[Created conflict]], left with only a [[Holography|holographic]] video message to remember them by. After drifting for weeks, Echo 216 eventually floated into the vicinity of the Master Chief, who had become stranded within his armour in open space. The Pilot was able to retrieve him in his Pelican and ultimately revive him, before the two were set upon by an unseen foe.

**Limited/Legendary Edition
[[File:Queen Cortana.png|thumb|left|200px]] '''[[Cortana]]''' was a human artificial intelligence, created from a [[Flash cloning|clone]] of the brain of renowned scientist Dr. [[Catherine Halsey]], who was once the director of the SPARTAN-II program. Cortana's original purpose was to aid in [[Operation: RED FLAG]], a daring mission in which the SPARTAN-IIs would steal a Covenant vessel, infiltrate the Covenant [[High Charity|capital]] and capture one of the faction's leaders, in the hopes of bringing the war to a close before the Covenant could wipe humanity out. However, this mission was effectively cancelled when the UNSC military bastion of [[Reach]] was beset by a gigantic Covenant fleet, and ultimately [[Fall of Reach|fell]].

*''[[Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary]]''
Cortana would be aboard the {{UNSCShip|Pillar of Autumn}} when it fled the planet and discovered the first Halo ring. Aiding the Master Chief as he fought to seize control of the ring, Cortana would prove invaluable in the battle, even preventing him from activating the ring in ignorance of its true function. She would go on to assist in the human victory over the Covenant in the battle over the second ring, [[Installation 05|Delta Halo]] and ultimately masterminded the plot that wiped out the Flood and its centralised [[Gravemind]] intelligence at the Ark. However, after these events, she and and the Master Chief were stranded in a broken husk of a ship in interstellar space.
**''[[Terminal/Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary|Terminals]]''
 
*''[[Halo 4]]''
With the Master Chief in [[Cryonics|cryosleep]], she was forced to endure nearly five years of solitude. This, combined with her advanced age (for an AI), led to her developing a terminal condition known as [[rampancy]]. Shortly after they were finally reunited with the UNSC, she seemingly sacrificed her life to save the Master Chief from the Didact. However, a little over a year later, she returned with a new mandate: galactic domination. Believing herself to be cured of rampancy by a Forerunner construct known as the [[Domain]] and supported by allied artificial intelligences collectively known as the Created, she successfully subdued the UNSC and Swords of Sanghelios using Forerunner peacekeeping automatons called [[Guardian Custode|Guardians]]. As ''Infinite'' opens, she has effectively gained control of the majority of known space, and what little resistance remains is on the run or in hiding.
