Halo titles, through the years, have always been amongst the best first-person shooter games in the market. The first-ever game in the critically acclaimed franchise, Halo: Combat Evolved, released in 2001 and performed extremely well. Some might even argue that it is the greatest game ever made. Thankfully for the fans, 343 Industries continue to build on the franchise’s honorable legacy with the new title, Halo Infinite.

The Multiplayer Beta launched last month celebrating 20 years of Xbox. The game, even with its limited features compared to the complete title has been loved by fans, creators/streamers, and critics alike. To showcase how the game is clearly dominating its adversaries, a Twitter user compiled a list of reviews and ratings from some of the established and well-renowned media houses, leaving one question on everyone’s mind: is Halo Infinite the Best Game of 2021?
