The first level of the Halo Infinite campaign has been revealed, and it's a direct homage to how our adventures with Master Chief began.

Microsoft and 343 Industries have focused their Halo Infinite gameplay reveals on Zeta Halo itself up to this point, but how exactly does the Chief get there from floating out in space? Well, judging by the first look that Game Informer got at Halo Infinite's opening level, he'll take a detour through a Banished ship first.

Game Informer's video starts with the Chief putting in an honest effort to understand Brute user interfaces before giving up and just punching the screen in. This leads to a rolling combat encounter through the massive ship's interior, with the Chief using his handy new Grappleshot to fling himself up and down across multiple decks.
