KNOWN ISSUES

This update includes two new known issues:

• Local Area Network (LAN) servers cannot be started from the in-game menus.
  • LAN servers can be started on Steam by launching Halo Infinite with the following launch options: -server -console -lan
  • This workaround is currently only available for Steam.
  • This issue only affects starting a LAN server on PC. Joining a LAN server in-game works as expected on all platforms.
