with the release of halo 5 Guardians
just hours away what better way to kick
off the greatest hunt in gaming history
p.m. than with a couple of free rec
packs rec packs are of course halo fives
mechanism for unlocking aesthetic as
well as loadout content it's a little
bit confusing but there's no better way
to understand rec packs than to crack
open a couple yourself
I'm James Duggan and I'll be showing you
how to unlock three free rec packs two
of which contain exclusive promotional
content the first and easiest req pack
to unlock comes from joining a spartan
company spartan companies are Halo 5s
version of clans so all you need to do
is head over to Halo Waypoint and apply
to a clan that has at least five members
once your application has been accepted
you'll receive a message in your inbox
informing you of your awesome gift
the next rec pack comes from watching
all 10 videos on the halo 5 Guardians
experience webpage don't worry if
they're only about 20 seconds of peace
and if that doesn't sell you than this
will it's a promotional req pack that is
guaranteed to contain the vengeance
assault rifle skin finally the last
promotional req pack comes from watching
any video on Halo Channel which is an
app for your Xbox one Windows 10 or iOS
naval device and this red pack is
guaranteed to contain the halo channel
emblem but that's not all the free stuff
so stick around because I'm going to be
running down any additional promotional
content that you can unlock for your
account at halo 5 Guardians if you own
the Master Chief collection you're in
luck because playing any level on any
difficulty in any campaign will unlock
the mark 6 Gen 1 helmet and armor
beating specifically Cairo station in
halo 2 anniversary will unlock an East
our version of set on it and if you're a
glutton for punishment completing every
single campaign on legendary difficulty
in the Master Chief collection will
unlock the helio Skrill helmet and armor
and fun fact about this only 6% of the
players who bought Master Chief actually
have this achievement so it's pretty
unlikely that you'll be seeing others
sporting this armor after you attempt to
the halo 2 campaign on legendary take it
from me you'll probably want a break so
you can sit back relax head over to halo
channel and watch halo nightfall
specifically episode 4 to unlock the
nightfall helmet and watching all five
episodes will unlock the matching armor
and any of us who play halo 5 guardians
before November 7th will also unlock the
tycion armor and helmet that does it for
all of the basic promotional content but
there is much more to be had so check
the link in the description for an
absolutely full
of everything you can unlock from buying
a new controller to eating gross hot
pockets for all things hallo keep it
