Microsoft has shared another very cool behind-the-scenes video for Halo Infinite that shows how the audio team captured sounds for the sci-fi shooter. This new video shows off how the developers recorded the game's various explosion sounds, of which we expect there to be many in Halo Infinite.

A warning first: this video contains very loud sounds, and you'll probably also want to listen with headphones or through a dedicated speaker to appreciate them better. The video runs for about 2 minutes and it showcases a multitude of different explosion sounds. They're all a treat to watch, but my favorite is probably the underwater explosions that create a very unique sound with the initial bang and the ensuing waterfall cascade. Check it out below.

Halo Infinite was originally set to release in November as a launch title for the Xbox Series X/S. However, Microsoft delayed the game due in part to complications related to COVID-19.

The multiplayer element will be free, which is a big shakeup for the series. We still haven't seen any multiplayer gameplay, but Microsoft just recently showed off a multiplayer skin that you can get by purchasing sweet snacks.

Despite what you might have read on the internet, Halo Infinite is not abandoning Xbox One or getting delayed again to 2022.
