How to get free REQ packs in Halo 5: Guardians

REQ packs contain random helpful items that can be used in Warzone mode in Halo 5: Guardians. They generally have to be bought – either with real money, or with the in-game currency. There are a few of them you can get for free, though. This guide will show you how to get free REQ packs in Halo 5.

How to obtain free REQ packs

There’s a couple of ways you can get free REQ packs, some of which even have certain items guaranteed:

• Go to Halo Waypoint and join a Spartan Company (it’s like a clan) with 5 or more members.
• Go to the Halo Experience website and watch all 10 videos (5 for Master Chief, 5 for Locke). The pack you get from this will contain the Vengeance Assault Rifle Skin.
• Download the Halo Channel app and watch any video on it. You’ll get a REQ pack with the Halo Channel Emblem.
• Watch the fourth episode of Halo: Nightfall on the Halo Channel app. You’re guaranteed to get the Nightfall Helmet.
• Watch all five episodes of Halo: Nightfall on the app. You’ll receive the Nightfall Armor in a pack.
• Play the game before November 7th to get a REQ pack with the Teishin Armor and Helmet.
• You’ll start the game with 7500 REQ points, which allows you to buy 3 packs.

If you own the Master Chief Collection, you could also earn REQ packs by playing the older Halo games:

• Complete any single player mission or multiplayer match to get Mark VI Gen 1 Helmet and Armor.
• Finish Cairo Station in the second game to get the Mark VI Gen 1 Scarred Helmet and Armor.
• Beat all campaigns on Legendary difficulty to get the Helioskrill Helmet and Armor.
