Hasbro has partnered with 343 Industries to launch a range of Nerf blasters that are inspired by the Halo franchise, including the upcoming game Halo Infinite, which is expected to arrive on the Xbox Series X, Xbox One, and PC this year. Little is known about Halo Infinite at this point, including details about the weapons, so the release of anything inspired by the game amounts to a major development.

The lineup includes the Nerf Halo MA40 Blaster (which was designed to “capture the look” of the one in Halo Infinite), Halo SPNKr MicroShot, and Halo Needler MicroShot. The MA40 is a motorized, semi-automatic blaster that includes a 10-dart clip and 10 ELITE darts. The MicroShots are single-shot blasters inspired by SPNKr and The Needler.
The Halo Nerf blasters will launch at major retailers starting on October 1st. The official descriptions for each blaster can be found below – note that the MA40 will include “a game card with a code to unlock this blaster’s color scheme in the HALO game”. These releases come after a range of official Halo-themed dart guns launched from BOOMco several years ago. You can still find some of those toys on Amazon and via Walmart.
