In his latest video on his YouTube channel, Rebs Gaming shared brand news details regarding the gameplay and world map featured in the canceled battle royale title

Beginning with gameplay details, Rebs mentioned that Tatanka started as a battle royale mode for Halo Infinite that would tie into Joe Staten’s campaign narrative. The map took place on some of the smaller fragments of Zeta Halo, and each fragment contained different biomes and man-cannons to launch players to other fragments. Players would have started each match in a launch bay and dropped into the map in ODST drop pods.

Besides eliminating other teams, players could complete mini-objectives to receive power items, equipment, and partial overshields. Additionally, vehicles would be dropped in the from Pelicans throughout the match for players to fight over. This included a Falcon. If a player would get taken down, they would get turned into an AI bubble that could float around and be revived.


As per Reb’s sources, Tatanka’s development was not completed by any means, and 343 Industries did not have nearly enough resources to pour into the project and make it competitive with other established battle royale titles.
