Hey IGN, Kudos for bringing Halo Canon on to provide this breakdown, no offense to you guys specifically, but its always nice to hear from the "experts" on this kind of thing!

Zeta Halo also has some flood connections too. hopefully we will see story expansions on both the flood (the banished being dumb and unlocking containment... a throwback to H1) and the Endless will definitely need their own story

Completed it last night the last boss fight is tough man.

Great to see Halo Canon doing what he does best for a wider audience.

And it seems that Offensive Bias was helping The Weapon. She says "someone is helping me" when you are fighting the harbinger...and in the after credits Despondent pyre says that she cant take care of the endless alone..and the forerunner says: "Offensive bias has been deployed".

Lets hope we get an endless story dlc for halo🙏🙏

Clearly Atriox's interest in "The Endless" is their ability to survive a Halo firing, smart money he wants to know how he can do this himself. So after he cleanses the universe using Halo, he won't be affected.

My favorite game of 2021. It was like an evolved version of Halo 1. Cannot wait for Halo The Endless

This explainer is really well done, kudos guys 👏

Already so hyped for the next campaign to follow the story and see chiefs rematch with atriox

Fabulous performance from Halo Canon, as always

0:19 WAIT WHAT IF WE GET TO PLAY AS ATRIOX IN A FUTURE DLC??

Awesome to hear Toa @ IGN 🤘🏻

Oh, when did Halo Canon start working for ign? Nice

It would be nice to see a sequel in this generation! Fingers crossed!

Hi! Is there any information on whether will be this NG + mode and / or the option to repeat the main missions? Thank you in advance for your answer.

Always answers my questions. ✌️ been watching since day 1

343 are bringing the lore in full circle now. I'm pretty sure the Endless are Precursors who didn't become Flood. There is No time travel. Atriox did not time travel. And the Endless don't time travel either. Their surviving the Halo array could be down to similar what Librarian did to Chief in making him immune to being composed by the Composer.

I'm looking forward to the DLC story continuation that will eventually drop.

Excited to see Offensive Bias helping Master Chief and New Cortana to defeat Atriox and the Endless!

Legendary ending was cryptic as hell

You don't think Chief and Atriox are gonna end up teaming to take down this new big bad?

Can’t wait for what’s next!

We can all agree that the maxed grapshot is the most powerful ability/weapon.

THANK YOU for correcting the record (so to speak) that Unlocked muddled on IGN!!! Atriox did NOT time travel (period)!!! The ancient time stamp is the KEY (IF time travel occurred then that ancient time stamp, not the audio, HAS TO be conveyed to ALL player difficulties and not just locked behind the Legendary ending...OTHERWISE you'll have some players going into future story DLC thinking Atriox was in the current day while Legendary players think he was in the ancient past)! The ancient time stamp is just part of the audio file playing, just some context for when the audio took place and nothing more (its playing, only on Legendary, as we see Atriox working in the CURRENT timeline seemingly undoing the Endless imprisonment that the Forerunners did sooo very long ago...the same imprisonment that the ancient audio log is referencing)! Think about it, IF Atriox frees the Endless in the past THEN that would alter ALL of Halo history...like the ENTIRE Halo canon would be altered, what we just played through would be invalidated, paradoxes galore (so many paradoxes that the entire story canon would unravel into a BIG mess)!

Is it just me, but has anyone else noticed the numbers for each of the monitors of the Halo rings are a multiple of 7? 343 Guilty Spark is 7^3 or seven to the power of three (for math nerds). 2401 Penitent Tangent is 7^4. *117*649 Despondent Pyre is 7^6. Seems the folks at Bungie/343i have a fascination with exponents!

Halo Canon is the man for this job.

Is it me or does the new atriox LITERALLY look younger? He also has no face paint

Back to the idea of time travel, Chief and the weapon mention that they were gone for 3 days

Nice. Now another 6 year of waiting for the next release.

@HaloCanon? What’s happening?! Congrats on this-great breakdown!

You sure that Atriox is the Atriox of the present? What if that Atriox is a past Atriox. Weapon said something about a signal was very old. You cannot emit an old signal but you can receive an old signal.

Got the same ending finishing whole game on Heroic 😐

Halo is infinite it's never end

Ign reaching out to the community?! Dope

(puts unlit cigarette into mouth while wearing a wave cap).... Mendecant Bias, The Devil is a lias, the Flood can try us..... 117 in 3.

That person in the video seem to have the same voice as Halo Canon, coincidence?

Offensive bias was uploaded to Atriox before he fought Master Chief... It's the way Chief describes their battle, as if Atriox had an A.I. He describes Atriox battle proficiency in the same way the Cortana A.I. was meant to upgrade his own combat effectiveness.

Obviously Halo 7 is Master Chief vs Banished and Endless.

But if it can't kill the flood and it can't kill the endless but the flood are remnants of the precursors so it can be said that the Endless are Precursors but just like the Flood they are no longer what they use to be but something else

So they’ve basically made Atriox immortal. How else could he possibly have survived the ring explosion? He was right there with Cortana!

This story isn't doing it for me, sad to say.

Plot twist the new Cortana is coded with offensive bias and master chief has been ogmented by it like the librarian did

What do you mean it wasn't about time travel? Master Chief and the weapon literally disappeared for 3 days at the end of the game there was literally three days of lost time so they must have time traveled in some way right

Perfect time for this video. Just completed it last night on legendary.

The last act dragged on so bad

Offensive bias, the un-sung hero of the entire saga...

So who said that Offensive Bias was deployed, are they on the UNSC?

Atriox and Cortana are in the past... she's about to change the future!

Just finished it myself

So there will be next game?

and they say KH is confusing imagine hearing this for the 1st time 😅

Who else is lost

More halo content!

Pretty sure Master Chief will time travel back to fight the endless and atriox And UNSC/ONI not knowing about this , might think master Chief is dead .

Given that this video obviously seems unsafe for people who don't want to be spoiled: OFFENSIVE BIAS BABYyyyy

So mendicate bias is cortana and offensive bias is weapon?

$10 says the reason they were dead after the firing is because they are pet AI or something

Halo Canon!!!!!

Halo canon

Halo Cannon!

I’m just saying, if Atriox is alive, then MAYBE Cortana is alive too…. Maybe….🤷‍♂️

Could the storage things carry forerunner AI that were infected by the logic plague?

Vague cliffhanger

Next halo = want floods

Halo has some of the best and interesting lore in gaming history

Yo Halo Canon

Pov you didn't beat halo yet

Why wouldn’t ign credit halo canon? Unless you know him, you wouldn’t know any better.

this is the best game this year

Another Halo game...Halo Unleashed?..

They should of made were we had to find out what happened to atriox

Why Halo Canon doing videos for IGN????

...what?

What was the point of giving me the red sword? When on legendary you can't Dodge the guy with a big hammer 🤣 All you needed was a Needler haha

third

Is the endless just another flood

First view

Seems to me Halo Infitite's campaign is half as long as Halo 2.

Don't know it's because this is my first halo game but that ending was terrible.

Halo infinite, rise of skywalker... So disappointed with the "story"

why not take hell divers, but make it a multiplayer flood war during the forerunner flood war.

Y'all stay blowing Halo man, damn.

. SPOILERS!!!

Lol wtf is this gameplay?

Hidden Xperia has a much better and more comprehensive video on the ending of the game, this one skips over a lot.

It took 6 years to make that? Yikes!

Snooze....

Endless are flood

Getting the achievement for finishing campaign had me thinking. 5% that is percentage of people who finished it. Its a damn shame. What a great journey up till last few hours seem stretched out. Why pad something for such a small percentage of players. They really could have cut a lot out of the game and it still would be worth gamepass price, also getting players back to multiplayer faster. Seems like a misstep.

I'll stick to bungie Halo

What a dumb and cheesy love story tho

Almost makes Infinite seem like an enjoyable game.

The narrative of this franchise is such a fuckin' mess at this point.

Boooooooring

Really? You had to rush to make a video spoiling the story already, the game has barely been out a week. Why don't you start doing this with movies also? Clowns

The most disappointing disaster of 2021.

Overcomplicated story intended to confuse fans, just like Kojima games, not interested!

I'm not a Halo fan at all. Barely know anything about it, but here is my two cents. It seems like the only way to keep Halo going is to keep introducing new species and then bring back an only enemy. If this is what keeps happening then the series will kill itself.

As far as I’m concerned, the 343 games are not cannon. Master chief is still floating in space waiting to be found after the events of Halo 3
