Halo Infinite: All 12 Skull Locations

Skulls are collectibles in Halo Infinite that can modify your gameplay experience by making it easier or difficult. There is a total of 12 Skulls in the game. 5 of the Skulls are in the missions and 7 in the open world. If you miss a mission skull and complete the mission, then you won’t be able to get the collectible without restarting the campaign. Open-world skulls can be collected in the end game as well. This guide shows the location of all the Skulls in the game. First, I will show the location of 5 mission skulls, followed by 7 Open-World skulls.

4) Grunt Birthday Party Skull (Repository)

With Grunt Birthday Party Skull, Grunt headshots lead to glorious celebrations. In the Repository mission, players should make their way to the area where Master Chief gets a message from Escharum, the main Brute leader of the Banished. After the cutscene, a light bridge gets activated and extends further as shown in the image.

Heading back to the start of the bridge. While facing the bridge, use Grapple Shot to reach the balcony on your right. From the balcony, go down the hallway into a room to collect the Power Seed. 

Head back to the main room with the light bridge after collecting the Power Seed. Now, go to the other side of the light bridge (the bridge that formed earlier after the cutscene). Use Grapple Shot to reach the balcony on your right (while facing the bridge) as shown in the image.

From the balcony, go down the hallway and then turn to the right to find a receptacle for the Power Seed at the end of the room. Put the battery in the socket and head back to the light bridge. 

Now, continue with the mission until you reach two large rooms with hallways on either side. Make your way through the first room until players will come to a room with two large angled architectural elements contacting the wall across from the entrance as shown in the image. You will find an unlocked door at the top of the arch structure. Grapple up to pass through the gap and at the top, you will find the skull.

5) Bandana Skull (Silent Auditorium)

Bandana skull grants you unlimited Ammo & Grenades and removes the equipment cooldown. You will get it during the final mission, Silent Auditorium. Play the level until you reach the room as shown in the picture below. This is the room where Sentinels will first appear. Make sure that you do not kill any sentinel as the skull won’t be available if you do.

Proceed forward and after a couple of rooms, you will reach two light bridges as shown in the picture below. Interact with the button to activate the bridge. After crossing the light bridge, the path on the left leads you in the main mission and the second bridge straight ahead leads you to the skull.

Cross the two light bridges and go through the door after the second bridge. If you killed any Sentinel in the mission, then this door will be locked and you won’t get able to go through it. If the door is closed, then reload an old save and replay the mission without killing any Sentinel for the door to be open. If you complete the mission without collecting the skull then you will have to replay the entire campaign again.

Go through the door and jump up the platform at the center of the room as shown in the picture below. You will find the Bandana Skull on this platform.
