There are four different difficulty settings to choose from in Halo Infinite. These are:

  • Easy
  • Normal
  • Heroic
  • Legendary

You’ll be able to choose which of these you start the campaign on, just after selecting the ‘New Game’ option from the main menu.

To change difficulty in Halo Infinite’s campaign, you need to exit out of the game by choosing “End Game” and return to the main menu, and then select “Load Game.”

Keep in mind that changing your difficulty midway through a playthrough will affect which achievements you can unlock. If you’re trying to get any for beating missions or the campaign on Legendary and you change your difficulty to Heroic, it’ll prevent you from unlocking these achievements.

If you ever want to change your difficulty setting again, just quit out of the game, go to “Load Game,” and choose the “Difficulty” option for your desired save file.
