Theater Mode in Halo Infinite is not hard to find at all. From the game's main menu, you'll see a few different options. Community is where you will want to head.

The first choice in the Community section will be Theater. This is where you can choose from your recently played matches or view any of your saved clips or screenshots.

Pick one of your past Halo Infinite matches and then choose the Watch Film option. This will start the replay of that match. It could take a while for the replay to load and the gameplay to begin, so don't worry if it doesn't happen immediately.

Once you are in the match replay, the Theater Mode in Halo Infinite is all yours. There are tons of controls available that let you find that incredible moment and make it look even better.

You can rewind and fast forward, select a player for the camera to follow, remove outlines and HUD details, swap between camera views, switch to free mode, and so much more.

There are icons near the timeline that allow most of these options to happen. Also, these icons on the timeline itself will mark important in-game events like kills or flag capture.

However, the Theater Mode in Halo Infinite does not currently allow for uploading photos or videos outside of the game. It isn't actually a recording of the game. It is a recreation in the game's engine.

You will need to use a recording software on your PC or the options available on Xbox to take screenshots or save a clip.
