In summary, here are some of the things that players can get:

100 new tiers of content for Season 6.
Waterfall, a Halo Online map now playable in custom games for Halo 3.
The Exchange.
A brand-new game variant for:
- Halo 2: Anniversary
- Halo: Reach
- Halo 4 – Escalation Slayer
The ability to change teams mid-game in custom matches across all titles in MCC.

If you’re wondering what all these are, don’t worry we’ll give you a rundown.

The Exchange

In MCC, choices for customization span wide as each new Season Pass offers new items. However, the team at MCC said that they continue to find ways to offer players a chance to get new items while also making sure that they don’t experience FOMO.

The Exchange hopes to bring all of that together. What’s going to happen is that items from previous Seasons will rotate every week. This is also a way to show players new items. For this first-ever Exchange, the set to be offered are:

Rhine armor set
- Unlocked as a bundle and available all season long.
Rhine weapon skins
- Unlocked separately from the armor bundle.
