The post-launch support for Halo Infinite’s multiplayer has been lacking, but Season 2’s maps look pretty sick.
On Friday, 343 Industries revealed Breaker and Catalyst, the two new maps in Halo Infinite Season 2. Any longtime fans of the series are in for a wonderful trip down memory lane with these.
Catalyst is an arena map containing serpentine tunnels throughout a Forerunner structure, rife with the same shimmering metallic hues and overgrown vegetation fans expect from Halo’s ancient alien gods. 343 Industries said the biggest inspiration for Catalyst was Epitaph from Halo 3.
Breaker is the sprawling big team battle-style map set in an abandoned Banished scrapyard. A massive laser cutting tool separates two bases and can make mincemeat of any player that unceremoniously strolls into the beam. Apparently, it’s ideal for Capture the Flag matches.
Check out the Breaker and Catalyst fly-through video below.
Prepare to take notes, because today we’re giving you a quick look at two new maps arriving in Season 2 of Halo Infinite, Lone Wolves. Introducing – Breaker and Catalyst. #HaloLoneWolves

Season 2 will be the first significant update for Halo Infinite’s brilliant multiplayer since launch. From a glance, Breaker and Catalyst seem to be offering something different in terms of aesthetics and layout from previous maps, so hopefully, both tide the community over until more modes are added to the game. 343 Industries still haven’t said much about Forge and co-op, unfortunately.
