Something interesting about this is the time of the release date on that image. It says 6PM (ET?), the Xbox 20th Anniversary event is 1PM ET. A 'Halo Infinite MP is available today' is making a ton of sense.
It will be 6PM GMT, as that's the region I am in.
That's also the exact time the event starts

Damn it's hard for MS to surprise people with all these leaks but I'm definitely excited for this!

I did think it was weird that your were able to pre-install the multiplayer like a month in advance.

As an adult with responsibilities and limited time, I'm glad I got some forewarning.
And as the guy making the OT and an adult with work and travel happening right now, I'm pretty glad I got some forewarning too. I'm going to put together a slightly altered OT just incase it does happen, ready for Monday… just incase.

I want to believe, but even after finding that date on the store page I'm not convinced

Would make my week, especially given the Endwalker delay. Still inclined to call it bogus, I genuinely don't think they're going to upend all the marketing and leadup built for the December release window - especially as having these additional few weeks could be used for polishing everything up.

Would be absolutely gold if they announce 'Halo Infinte's free to play multiplayer is available to play, right now"

"for 50 bucks early access, including a bunch of dlc shit"

I know some people shit on others for caring about "spoiling" marketing events, but I mean.

Imagine if this dropped live at the show on Monday without leaking. Holy shit it would have been legendary.

Well it still ain't confirmed and only the small dark corners of the internet would actually have heard these leaks

Still no dream crushing from Sketch/Uny after 5-6 hours? I think this is pretty likely, lol.

Since they announced that MP will be free to play they split the marketing pretty heavily in its favour and are fumbling the ball on what makes this Halo 'Infinite' if you pay/sub.

That being said having MP out this early and reviewers possibly having campaign code any day now. This could set them up for a huge holiday push (to sell all the overflow Series S stock) and a TGA nomination.

MS is way too fucking leaky and it all cannot be controlled info releases, Phil needs to have a talk internally.
This would have been an actually pretty huge surprise.
