The new, free content update for Xbox One’s shooter Halo 5: Guardians is on the way. The new update is dubbed Memories of Reach, and brings some fresh features and content, including the highly anticipated multiplayer mode Infection.

Here’s what Memories of Reach update will bring to Halo 5: Guardians :

Although 343 Industries and Microsoft announced the update, there’s still no word as to when the update will be released. However, 343 Industries will hold a special event on May 11 from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. PDT attwitch.tv/haloand the Halo Channel to showcase the update, so we should expect its release to Halo 5 players some time this month.

Memories of Reach is going to be the sixth DLC for Halo 5 Guardians. What is interesting about this release, as well as about all previous content updates for Halo 5: Guardians, is that 343 Industries and Microsoft release them to players for free. As the companies note, significant earnings have been made through Halo 5 micro transactions and therefore there’s no need to put any price on DLCs.
