Version1 announced on April 12 their entrance into Halo esports with the Total Control roster, which finished runners-up to Incognito in the Open Series tournament.

Incognito feature three of the players that played under UYU at HCS Anaheim 2022 in addition to Joshua ‘Mash’ Mashlan, the team’s head coach at the event. UYU placed 9th-12th in Anaheim, where their campaign was cut short by FaZe in the second round of the lower bracket.
