Since the Halo series was created in 2001, the games in the series have been known for their enemies. The Master Chief has faced many challenging foes over the years, such as the nightmarish Flood, mechanical Prometheans, and the alien races of the Covenant. However, Halo Infinite brings another enemy faction, known as the Banished, to the mainline games. Although the Banished are made up of familiar Covenant style enemies, one NPC in particular became a viral sensation last year unintentionally.
