Halo Infinite Killing Spree medals and requirements

Racking up the kills in Halo Infinite is so satisfying that it basically makes up for the game's more troublesome aspects.

The move to be a PC-first game with a movement and aim system properly configured for mouse and keyboard has elevated Infinite's multiplayer to a previously unseen degree and the future is bright for the title for both casual and competitive players.

One aspect unchanged is the game's rewarding of kill streaks or killing sprees in the game's parlance, and once activated you will hear that iconic booming voice announcing your feat.

Halo Infinite also has a number of Killing Spree medals that reward players for killing multiple enemies without dying.

So, you may be wondering just how do you unlock these Killing Sprees? And if you are, this is the guide for you.

What is a Killing Spree?

A Killing Spree is a medal type in Halo Infinite that rewards players for killing multiple enemies in Halo Infinite without dying.

The first spree starts at five kills and the last dubbed "Demon" is for killing 40 opponents without dying.

There is also a Killing Spree medal for ending another player's spree called "Killjoy".

How to get a Killing Spree

Getting a Killing Spree is easy on paper but hard in practice, crucial to your success in doing so will be not killing per se, but staying alive.

If you are attempting to get a Killing Spree you will want to stay alive as long as possible. Pick your fights with thought, don't take an easy kill if it puts you in harm's way and remember to position yourself as such that you can hide and recharge your shields.

Also, you will need a cool head, think about trying to play defensively -- not offensively -- picking people off with a sniper, from afar, rather than running and gunning.
