During the most recent Halo Infinite multiplayer technical preview, a Reddit user discovered a remarkably tiny (and drivable) Warthog. Developer 343 Industries has held two beta-like playtests for the game's free-to-play portion so far, and the next Halo Infinite tech preview is open to all registered members of the Halo Insider program - the studio's dedicated public playtesting system.
Many players who were invited to the Halo Infinite multiplayer tech previews have provided feedback about their experiences so far, some of it good and some of it bad. As can be expected from a pre-release build, many glitches have been spotted, including but not limited to grenades spawning infinite wet floor signs on certain maps. While support tickets and fan requests are unlikely to all be answered by the game's December launch, the latest tech preview also provided some new insights into what can be expected at release. A Halo Infinite datamine leaked armor, emblems, and more by peering into the tech preview's hidden files, but nothing in the leak mentioned anything miniature versions of classic Halo vehicles.
One Halo Infinite beta participant, Reddit user AutumnEntracte, discovered a pint-sized Warthog on the battlefield and recorded their brief experience driving it. The 20-second encounter with the incongruously small Spartan vehicle shows viewers a model no different from the Warthogs players have driven throughout the Halo franchise (except in size).
Some users expressed dismay that the oddity did not survive longer on the battlefield. In defense of the player who slayed the tiny Warthog, Un_Mexa_Random pointed out, "We don’t know if they could see the tiny Warthog or a normal one," raising the possibility that it was a client-side Halo Infinite glitch only the affected player could see. Original poster AutumnEntracte added in a comment, "Imagine how small the mongoose could become? Minigoose when 343?" For now, the chances of mini-versions of more Halo Infinite vehicles coming to the full game seem slim, but this apparently rare glitch may not be addressed quite just yet.
Those enamored with the mini-hog can take heart knowing there's a very real chance more miniaturized Halo vehicles could appear in the upcoming September 30 multiplayer tech preview. The Halo Insider playtests so far have been limited to Arena gametypes like Slayer, Strongholds, and Capture the Flag, but Halo Infinite's Big Team Battle will debut during the next tech preview weekend, meaning the mode's vehicular focus could greatly increase the odds of more tiny Warthogs appearing.
