Halo update 23rd October – Husky Raid S1
22nd Oct 2025

We're already at the mid-way point of our Halo Week, but don't worry we've still got lots to grapple with!
Yesterday we dived feet first (oh, come on how could I not!) into the ODST after looking at the new balance update on Monday.
Today, we're looking a little bit further ahead to November's release of the Organised Play 'Husky Raid' Season 1!
Yes, you read that right - we're taking all the chaos and lethality of the fast-paced fan-favourite game mode and bringing it to your gaming tables in 8 new Scenarios. We're looking at three of those in this blog, for the rest head over to the Index for all the details!
If this has captured your attention, let's 'wort, wort, wort' and take a look at what we've got in store for you!
ILLUSION
Dare to run into the unseen and steal your enemies' Flag.
Our homage to the ever popular map from Halo Infinite. This mission blends stealing flags with Active Camouflage - making for some very daring and interesting runs through the centre of the map!
HUSKY ODDBALL
The oddball just got a whole lot more lethal.
This game mode has had a bit of lethality spike for Season 1 - we've introduced a new scoring method for it, which massively increases the reward for actually hitting people with the Oddball instead of hiding it away! You will now score 4 VP for every melee kill with the Oddball and 1 per enemy activation for holding it.
HUSKY SIEGE
In this scenario, two teams compete to claim a strategic asset before their enemy.
Another new mode for Season 1 is Husky Siege - a flag based capture mission that throws a twist - there is only 1 flag to capture and you are both fighting for it! Do you go all in and go for the flag, or do you block the enemy from scoring whilst they bring the flag to you?
If you love the sound of this but are new to Halo: Flashpoint, fear not! We've got a fantastic guide here to help get you up and running.
All of the Scenarios (and more!) are live on the Halo: Flashpoint Index and are included in the brand new Season 1 OP Kits, which are up for pre-order today.
Our new OP Kits have been refreshed, and now contain printed copies of the brand new Achievement sheets, the Season 1 booklet featuring all the new Scenario maps, and the best bit - a brand new set of 40 Acrylic tokens (covering the Wargames and Banished releases!)
Join us tomorrow where we give a review of Season 0, that amazing prize for coming 1st in the rankings and a dive into some of the statistics behind the first year of tournament play.
