The Shotgun is a weapon featured in Halo: Combat Evolved and its remaster, Combat Evolved Anniversary. It has since gone on to appear in nearly all subsequent games in the series.
Information on the Shotgun found in Halo: Campaign Evolved can be found here.
Universe and lore[edit]
- Main article: M90 shotgun
In the original Combat Evolved, the Shotgun featured is the M90 shotgun.
In Anniversary, the weapon's model was replaced with that of the M45E shotgun from Halo: Reach, though in-game materials still refer to it using all of the original CE designations. Despite this, the original CE design is considered the canonical M90 in reference texts released since.[2]
Gameplay[edit]
Counterparts[edit]
Campaign[edit]
The Shotgun is the secondary starting weapon on the level Two Betrayals. It is also the primary starting weapon on The Library, but only when playing on Easy.
Like the Assault Rifle, the Shotgun has a flashlight mounted below the barrel, which can be used in the campaign to illuminate dark spaces.[3]
