The '''Headshot''' medal is awarded for killing an enemy with a headshot. It is available in ''[[Halo 3]]'' (in campaign only), ''[[Halo 3: ODST]]'', ''[[Halo: Reach]]'', ''[[Halo 4]]'', ''[[Halo: The Master Chief Collection]]'' and ''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]'' [[campaign]], [[multiplayer]], [[Firefight]] and [[Spartan Ops]]. In the first three games it is represented by a "targeted" purple skull in the middle of a gold six-sided star. In ''Halo 4'' and ''The Master Chief Collection'' it is represented by a targeted white skull on a blue circle on top of a grey four-point star. In ''Halo 5: Guardians'' the skull is replaced with a white and red target on a blue circle with four points.
