Halo Infinite and Fortnite Should Keep Scratching Each Others' Backs

For the last five years, Fortnite has absolutely dominated the online multiplayer market. While it isn't without its fair share of competition, especially from all the usual big names like Call of Duty and Apex Legends, Fortnite has managed to stay a cut above the rest, and a large part of that is down to the game's live-service model.

One of the key parts of Fortnite's live-service model is the addition of new cosmetics, primarily character skins, and over the last five years, Fortnite has been able to bring an unfathomable number of skins to the table, with some of the most popular being crossovers from other properties. From Marvel to Star Wars, Fortnite has had it all, and two years ago, one of the game's most talked about skins came directly from Halo Infinite, a game that could use some more exposure now.

Halo Infinite could do with a helping hand right about now.
