Halo Infinite’s upcoming Spring Update will add its first new power weapon since launch, and it’s one that will be familiar, yet different, to longtime Halo fans–the Fuel Rod SPNKr.
It’s not exactly the Fuel Rod Cannon first introduced as a usable weapon in Halo 2, but rather a UNSC SPNKr rocket launcher that has been heavily modified by Halo Infinite’s enemy faction, the Banished, to fire fuel rods.
While the weapon shares many similarities with the franchise’s classic Fuel Rod Cannon–like a large magazine and massive green bolts of exploding plasma–it does behave a little differently. Most notably, the Fuel Rod SPNKr’s plasma bolts don’t bounce off targets, acting more like Halo’s traditional rocket launcher.
