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.{{Ref/Site|D=01|M=6|Y=2020|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/mcc-development-update-august-2020| | The seasonal unlocks for Season 3: Recon take the form of the [[Skins (Halo 3)|skins]] for weapons and visors in the multiplayer of ''[[Halo 3]]'', [[Armor permutations (Halo 3: ODST)|Firefight character unlocks]] for ''ODST'' and ''ODST''-themed [[Nameplates/Halo: The Master Chief Collection|nameplates]] for use in the menus.

In the Flighting build for Season 3, the unlock system was to have included an additional nameplate known as Sirens (shown below), depicting the [[Genet]] vehicles employed by the [[New Mombasa Police Department]]. The nameplate was removed for the final release due to ongoing real-world controversy relating to the police.{{Ref/Site|D=01|M=6|Y=2020|URL=https://twitter.com/ske7ch/status/1295530704663506944?s=19| | In the Flighting build for Season 3, the unlock system was to have included an additional nameplate known as Sirens (shown below), depicting the [[Genet]] vehicles employed by the [[New Mombasa Police Department]].

In the December 2020 update, the original Dino Tracker nameplate was removed and replaced with an updated design - part of a wider initiative across the nameplates and skins to remove ''Jurassic Park'' references from the game for reasons unknown. The original design is shown below; the nameplate was replaced with an updated Dino Tracker design with the same name and unlock requirement (shown in the above tables). | In the December 2020 update, the original Dino Tracker nameplate was removed and replaced with an updated design - part of a wider initiative across the nameplates and skins to remove ''Jurassic Park'' references from the game for reasons unknown.
