What you need to know

  • A glitch in the Halo Infinite beta allows you to rapidly beat people up with multiple melee attacks at once.
  • The glitch is performed by melee attacking, then swapping your weapon and immediately melee attacking again at the same time. You can then chain the melee attacks with each swap.

One of the funniest (and most game-breaking) bugs from this beta test is an exploit that allows players to melee attack extremely rapidly, essentially giving them rapid fists of fury that can annihilate any player in their way. With this glitch, you can beat down anyone — including someone who has an overshield — in a fraction of a second. Have a look at the exploit below:

If you're looking to use this glitch during the beta before it's patched, you can do so by melee attacking, then quickly swapping to your second weapon, then immediately melee attacking again. You can chain this insta-melee glitch as you continue to swap back and forth between your weapons, allowing you to rapidly beat the snot out of anything and anyone in front of you.
