Season 3: Recon is the third season implemented into Halo: The Master Chief Collection. The Season debuted on September 21, 2020,[Note 1] with the launch of Halo 3: ODST as part of the collection on Steam and Windows. Although launched alongside Halo 3: ODST, the cosmetic unlocks available focus on adding new skins for Halo 3's multiplayer alongside new nameplates and Firefight characters. This season was preceded by Season 2: Spark and followed by Series 4: Reclaimer with the launch of Halo 4 on for PC on November 16, 2020. The season's logo is a stylised representation of Veronica Dare's helmet.

For The Master Chief Collection, the unlocks have been divided into 5 tiers of ten unlocks each. To progress a tier, all ten unlocks within must be unlocked. The season features over 80 unlockables, a departure from the 100 tiers seen in Seasons 1 and 2 due to the much shorter development time between releases.[1] Including Challenge unlocks, Season 3 introduces to The Master Chief Collection;[2]

- 4 for the Assault Rifle
- 4 for the Magnum
