Alpha Pack is a multiplayer event for Halo Infinite held between 19 June and 2 August, 2022. It's the third event of Season 02: Lone Wolves, as well as the second Narrative Event.

Plot summary[edit]

Taking place shortly after the Interference second cinematic, this event depicts Sigrid Eklund teaching lessons about the Lone Wolves to another Spartan.

Cutscene transcript[edit]

Chapter 2[edit]

Sigrid Eklund is present at the Avery J. Johnson Academy of Military Science's firing range, aiming an MA40 assault rifle and firing semi-automatic at targets downrange. A set of weapons are laid out on a crate in front of her, while a scopeless M395 DMR is displayed on a stand in the background. She turns her head to face the camera.

Eklund fires one more shot downrange, before checking the weapon's firing port, then detaching the weapon's magazine and turning to face the camera, her pose at-ease.

  • Eklund: We've had each other's backs since the Vihar collapse. Without Dinh? I would have died more times than I want to count. But sometimes, you have to fight on your own.

Eklund takes a new magazine and loads her rifle.

  • Eklund: I'd like to see what you can do, when the only one who has your back... is you.

Eklund aims the rifle downrange again, pulling the weapon's charging handle before opening fire.

Chapter complete[edit]

At the Academy's firing range once again, Eklund is sitting on the crate next to the range, facing the camera.

  • Spartan Sigrid Eklund: Not bad. You fought well on your own. But remember:

Eklund gestures towards the background scenery.

  • Eklund: Out there... beyond the safety of these walls, without resupply or reinforcements? Survival depends on your teammates and whatever you can find in the field. My gear, it's not... standard issue. It's necessity. History. A collection of hard choices. Someday, I'll fall, and whoever's left will pick up my pieces.

Eklund stands up and grabs the MA40 assault rifle resting next to her.

  • Eklund: But that's what it means to be part of a pack. And we always have room for another wolf.

Event playlist[edit]
