Halo Infinite's multiplayer has had some issues since it was "surprised" launched on 15th November, but, by in large, the game has been well-received featuring some fantastic modes and maps for an exhilarating gameplay experience.

Speaking of bugs, as a sly reference to Destiny 2's loot cave ordeal, the developers have added two loot caves to Halo Infinite's Fragmentation map, also called "Vaults". Here's how you can open a Halo Infinite loot cave, as well as the exact locations on Fragmentation.

How to unlock a Halo Infinite loot cave

First off, the loot caves in Halo Infinite are only available on the massive Fragmentation map. This means you will need to join the Big Team Battle playlist and hope Fragmentation pops up.

The loot caves in Halo Infinite are filled to the brim with, well, loot. From a tonne of grenades to powerup items such as the Overshield, Active Camo, and of course all the weapons a Spartan's heart could desire.

However, opening the loot caves isn't quite that easy. Once at the door to a loot cave, players will need to interact with it, sending their personal AI out to open the door.

The problem here is, the AI takes 20 seconds to open the door. Spartans need to stay close to the AI whilst it performs the task, defending it from the enemy. Due to the fast-paced nature of Halo Infinite, we suggest you bring some friends to defend your AI.

If you move away from your AI while it is working on opening the door, the process will need to be repeated. Once opened for the first time, players will receive the "Natural Formation Location Sensation" achievement for their troubles, and all that sweet loot!

Both loot cave locations on Fragmentation

Everyone and their pet AI will want to get into a Halo Infinite loot cave. There are only two in the game, and both are on the Fragmentation map.

The loot caves are hard to miss, as they sit behind huge red doors with a glowing button. Check out the locations of both loot caves on the Fragmentation map below.
