Believe in a Hero

Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary

Believe in a Hero is an achievement in Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary and Halo: The Master Chief Collection. It is awarded for completing the campaign on Heroic. It is worth 20 Gamerpoints. Earning the achievement also unlocks the "Birth of a Spartan" achievement if the player hasn't completed the campaign on Normal.

In the original game, it is represented by the difficulty shield with a single M41 rocket launcher over it; in The Master Chief Collection, it is represented by concept art for The Pillar of Autumn.

Trivia[edit]

"Believe in a Hero" was the tagline of Halo 3's Believe advertising campaign.
