Content has been continuously rolling in for Halo 5: Guardians since it launched in October of 2015, including numerous new maps, armors and weapons. The latest wave of updates hit just this afternoon, dubbed “Infinity’s Armory”.

The patch runs at an install size of 3.3 GB on the Xbox One hardrive and and adds a great deal of new REQs and maps for both Warzone Assault and Arena. Read on for a full list of what’s included:
