Halo Infinite is currently traveling up Steam's revenue charts thanks to Master Chief's very expensive armor.
As spotted by @Mr_ Rebs_ on Twitter, Halo Infinite has jumped up 47 spots on Steam's Global Top Sellers Chart (by revenue) shortly after the release of the new Mark V armor cosmetic - which was inspired by Master Chief's armor in Halo: Combat Evolved. At the time of writing, 343 Industries' game is sitting at number 33 in the charts, next to GTA 5 and Tales of Arises's Beyond the Dawn expansion.
As reported by PC Gamer, the new cosmetic will set players back 2,200 in in-game currency for the full set, or $22. That might not sound too big of an ask if you're a big fan of Halo: Combat Evolved, but it's pretty shocking when you realize that you can purchase Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary, as in the game the armor comes from, on Steam for much less than $22.
Halo Infinite moved up 47 spots on the Steam Global Top Sellers Chart (by revenue) to 34th. This is a result of the Combat Evolved Mark V bundle.

In case you were wondering, the new cosmetic does come with a few added extras. For starters, it doesn't look as pixelated as it did back in 2001, as Halo Waypoint reveals, the new Mark V armor has been "updated and enhanced" for Season 5 of Halo Infinite. They also now allow for coating, visor, emblem, and FX customization giving players more options when it comes to customization of the classic skin.
This isn't the only nostalgic thing heading to Halo Infinite. In just over a week's time on November 14, players will be able to revisit a bunch of Halo 3 maps in Halo Infinite including The Pit, High Ground, Isolation, Cliffside, and many more. You can find the full list here.

Halo Infinite saw is fair share of post-launch struggles, thanks to less-than-satisfactory support from developer 343 Industries, but of late, the tide seems to be turning for the first person shooter. Season 5 of Halo Infinite’s multiplayer post-launch content launched in October, and its meaty additions to the game have brought about an increase in its player numbers.
Halo Infinite has traveled a rocky road since its launch about a couple of years ago. In spite of critical praise in the immediate aftermath of its release, the shooter drew plenty of criticisms for its lackluster post-launch support in the months afterward, while more recently, its fifth season has brought about something of a turnaround both in player engagement and reception from the community. In spite of the inconsistencies that have weighed it down, however, it has nonetheless proven to be quite a popular game.
