In Halo Infinite, the Master Chief has a new piece of equipment, the Grappleshot. But where did this come from? The newest episode of the UNSC Archives reveals the origins of "Project Magnes," which would go on to become the Grappleshot.

"At the height of the Human-Covenant conflict, a civilian engineer built a prototype for the rapid mass manipulation of heavy objects; a device she hoped the UNSC would adopt and integrate into the Master Chief's combat arsenal," reads a line from the video. Check it out below.

This is the second episode in the UNSC Archives series that digs into the "untold stories of humanity and heroism" from the Halo lore. The first revealed the heartbreaking story behind Master Chief's energy shields.
