Halo Infinite Patch Coming To Fix Vsync Issues At 120Hz

A new patch is coming for Halo Infinite, that’s expected to deal with the desync problems many players are dealing with today.

HaloSupport, the official Twitter account for the game’s support team, shared this message:

“A #HaloInfinite patch is expected to release on Thursday, Oct 26. This update includes Vsync improvements on monitors with a refresh rate of 120Hz or higher, Armor Hall stability, & improvements when selecting items in Forge. Stay tuned for patch notes when this update launches.”

This update comes following the long awaited release of Halo Infinite Season 5. As reported by Windows Central, the launch of this new season came with an increase in players. SteamDB had recorded a concurrent player count of 18,007 players.

Microsoft does not share the full numbers, but it’s possible that combining Steam and Xbox (PC and console) numbers could reflect an active player base of as much as 60,000 players.

So, obviously, the game’s loyal player base was simply waiting for 343 Industries to release a proper new Season to jump back in to play. Some observers raise doubts that there really aren’t that many players active in the game, and that this recent jump isn’t big enough.

Of course, we need to acknowledge here, once again, that Microsoft does not share their numbers, so these observations, positive or negative, are partly speculatory. We can’t really know for sure unless Microsoft chooses to make them public.

But clearly, there is enough player activity for 343 Industries to also jump back in with new updates. 343 made sure to let us know well in advance that they are working on Vsync for monitors with 120Hz refresh rates, or higher.

On top of that, they seem to be hinting at improvements in the Forge’s UI, and
