Notably, the ''Halo: Reach'' and ''Halo 3'' customization options were implemented into the game in the [[Season 4: Reclaimer#December_16_patch_notes_(Version_1.2028.0.0)|Season 4 December update]], as available for preview in the game's menus.

===''Halo 3''===
For ''Halo 3'', the existing "New Skins in Halo 3" toggle will be updated to include the new armor permutations mentioned below alongside weapon and vehicle skins. If the new cosmetics are turned off, any players using ''Halo Online''-based armor will instead display as using the default [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/Mark IV|Mark VI]].{{Ref/Site|D=28|M=2|Y=2021|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/forums/243780d3b80b4bb6ac7917a8942286db/topics/mcc-development-flighting-updates/3e3252e1-297a-4590-a7ab-67c133b3d37d/posts?page=4#post63|Site=Halo Waypoint Forums|Page=MCC Development & Flighting Updates|Detail=Page 4, post 63|Quote=The team is currently working on a game update that expands the existing skin toggle in the settings menu to also apply to armor. If you prefer a true classic experience, you’ll be able to flip the “New Skins in Halo 3” toggle to “disabled” and you won’t see any new cosmetic items (weapon skins, vehicle skins, or armor) when you’re playing Halo 3. If you decide to turn off cosmetics, any players in your game who are wearing new armor will appear as default Mark VI.}}

The New Skins in Halo 3 toggle in settings has been expanded.

While cosmetics are disabled, any players in your game who are wearing new armor will appear with the default Mark VI.
