Why is it masculine?

Invité is masculine because it derives from the Latin past participle "invitatus," which carried masculine grammatical gender that French retained through its Romance language evolution. French nouns derived from Latin past participles typically inherit the gender of their Latin forms, making "invité" (invited one/guest) masculine, with "invitée" as its feminine counterpart.
