Due to the launch of ''Halo: Reach'' and [[Season 1: Noble]] as part of the collection in 2019, the decision was made to allow for full armour customisation as in the game's Xbox 360 release, with a [[Season|new customisation system]] designed to retain the feel of the older systems while blending it with more modern unlock systems, using the power of Unreal Engine 4. This system was later extended to ''Halo 3'' with the launch of [[Season 2: Spark]]. In this system, players can earn {{SeasonPoint|Season Points}} while playing multiplayer, Firefight and campaign to unlock armor pieces for use. Additionally, the launch of Season 2 saw the addition of [[Skins (Halo: Combat Evolved)|skins]] to ''Halo: Combat Evolved'', with a variety of new texture skins for all useable weapons and vehicles alongside visor color options available for players in the game's multiplayer. | Due to the launch of ''Halo: Reach'' and [[Season 1: Noble]] as part of the collection in 2019, the decision was made to allow for full armour customisation as in the game's Xbox 360 release, with a [[Season|new customisation system]] designed to retain the feel of the older systems while blending it with more modern unlock systems, using the power of Unreal Engine 4.
