Sex & Nudity
-
- No sexual content whatsoever. Female characters are slim.
Violence & Gore
-
- This is more gritty and has a darker tone than the other Halo games.
- Explosions, crashes, fire, buildings being destroyed etc
- Some aliens (brutes) have red blood but when you shoot them a small splurt comes out.
- In the opening level of the game, there is a room where you see dead marines. One is hanging on the wall and others are on the ground slumped against it. There are considerable amounts of blood seen on, and around them. You can also see footprints of blood scattered on the ground. It is implied that these marines were tortured to death. This room is unavoidable.
- When the player is killed during gameplay, sometimes an alien will shoot his or her dead body, often splattering blood on the floor.
- Most of the game is filled with basic gun violence from assault rifles to rocket launchers. Both aliens & humans will bleed when getting shoot, aliens don't have red blood. The amount of blood is more than the previously Halo games aside from CE.
- When you are not using firearms, you are either using a turret, or in a spaceship, or shuttle.
- In the level New Exodus the city has been invaded by "The covenant" civil people are lying dead all around the city, killed by the aliens. The mission is quite suspenseful.
- The game also offers the player to attack aliens with a knife, however the enemy must not be looking at you, making it a pretty rare occasion.
- You can stumble upon some civilians or soldiers with an injury or wound.
- The brutes are much larger than the player and aliens, and can be intimidating to younger players.
- In space battles if you die, there is an explosion, and the pilot perishes. This may disturb some younger players.
Profanity
-
- There is no strong language in this game.
- Bitch is used a lot
- Bitch is frequently used
- The language is kept at a PG/PG-13 level.
- Uses of mild profanity throughtout the game, such as (hell, damn, crap, shit, bastard).
- Online players may use foul language. It is recommended to disable online chat for younger players.
Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking
-
- Alcohol is slightly referenced in the game
- Smoking used about 3 times
Frightening & Intense Scenes
-
- This is the most gritty Halo game to date.
- Probably the grittiest Halo game.
- The game may be intense to young players.
- Rated R for bloody images and some violence.
- Definitely the most mature Halo game, but still could pass for a PG-13 probably.
- The aliens may frighten younger players, especially the Elites when they're seen up close. But the aliens have a pretty realistic appearance, and most aliens are covered in heavy armor. And not much of their faces are shown.
- At one cutscene, your team are attacked by some elites (an alien species). They storm over your team and takes two hostages. One of the elites jump over you trying to kill you with a blade, his face is really shown up close, he screams loud, and you'll see right up in his throat. The sound of his screaming may be frightening, the whole scene is intense.
- Lots of intense scenes, similar to other Halo games.
Spoilers
Violence & Gore
- Before you jump out of the plane Carter (noble 1) is driving you see blood all over the window and see carter with a very beat up and bloody face. This could upset younger players.
- In one scene one member of your team is sniped in the head. You can see blood and sparks fly out. This scene is more emotional than violent and is brief.
- A man gets stabbed with an energy sword (no blood) Two men commit suicide, the first crashes a plane into a huge alien machine and the other blows up a ship while he's in it. Your death at the end of the game is very sad, you're thrown in to a wall and killed.
- Almost all your teammates in this game die. Sad for younger players.
Frightening & Intense Scenes
- Sadly, this game may give people emotional scars after you gain emotions for the characters, who then are tragically killed or sacrifice themselves to give humanity a fighting chance.
- Sadly the planet is 'glassed', but it wasn't entirely as shown in the last scene where your helmet is a monument of the people who sacrificed themselves for this planet and people come back to the planet reach where it's full of glass.
- Your death is extremely violent and disturbing. Very hard to watch
- The whole game is about a planet being destroyed. It's a very dark and tragic atmosphere throwout the game with heavy causalities. You will see atomic bombs fired at Reach (The planet) killing billions with only one goal, and that's to destroy Reach and humanity. This may be physically distressing to someone.
