'''Snowbound''' is an [[Event|Operation]] in ''[[Halo Infinite]]'', beginning on [[2024#December|December 3, 2024]] and lasting through the Christmas period up until [[2025#January|January 7, 2025]]. As with the prior [[Winter Update]]s, Snowbound is themed after Christmas, and introduces new [[Armor customization (Halo Infinite)|cosmetics]] for ''Infinite'' based on ''[[Halo 3]]'' and ''[[Halo 3: ODST]]''.

Snowbound also sees the return of the 1v1 Showdown playlist, which first debuted at the 2024 Halo World Championship, and was tested through a Combat Workshop playlist following the event. Likewise, the Operation saw Snow Fire, a snow-covered remake of [[Live Fire]], Snow Ground, a remake of [[High Ground]], and [[Snowbound]] arrive into the game's map pool. Appropriately, the Operation's name and cover art reference the ''Halo 3'' multiplayer map [[Snowbound]].
