As Halo Infinite celebrates the legacy of Halo 3, fans will now have a new opportunity to get their hands on a special edition of Game Fuel. The reintroduction of Halo Game Fuel marks a return to the iconic Halo theme for the Mountain Dew drink.

The Halo edition of Mountain Dew Game Fuel made its debut alongside the release of Halo 3 in 2007. It played a significant role in generating excitement for Bungie's highly anticipated third installment. Although this edition was initially only available for a limited time, other promotional flavors of Game Fuel have made comebacks for various game releases over the years, including World of Warcraft in 2009, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 in 2011, and even Halo 4 in 2012. However, fans have been eagerly waiting for the return of a Halo edition, and their patience is finally about to be rewarded.

The official Halo account on Twitter recently announced the return of Mountain Dew's Halo Game Fuel. The classic flavor is set to make a comeback on November 6, as revealed in a post accompanied by a video teasing its revival. The video begins by showcasing a can of the original Halo Game Fuel featuring the iconic image of the Master Chief and the Halo 3 logo. After a brief moment, the soft drink is shaken, and the video transitions to a new version of the limited-edition flavor. The updated design showcases the Citrus Cherry description and includes images of John-117 in his Halo Infinite MJOLNIR armor as well as the AI known as The Weapon. Additionally, the can prominently displays the logos for Halo Infinite and Xbox at the top.

Given the immense popularity of the original limited-edition flavor for Halo 3, it comes as no surprise that the gaming community is eagerly anticipating the return of Halo Game Fuel. Since the news broke, numerous nostalgic fans have expressed their excitement, with the Twitter post garnering thousands of likes. The official announcement from the Halo account acknowledges the significance of this revival for many longtime fans, stating, “Feels like 2007 again.”

The return of Halo Game Fuel is accompanied by 343 Industries' upcoming plans for Halo Infinite. Along with the introduction of the soft drink flavor, the game will incorporate in-game references to Mountain Dew, such as various cosmetics and a map themed around the brand. Additionally, developers intend to add a playlist containing Halo 3 maps for fans to revisit nostalgically.

It is important to note that there are other Halo-related updates besides the Mountain Dew collaboration. The launch of Season 5 of Halo Infinite on October 17 will bring a fresh battle pass, additional game modes, and new maps.
