343 Industries
It's not pink, it's lightish red! Awarded to Spartans who match with 343 on Memorial Day Weekend 2018 Fight Like A Girl
The world, and the entire Halo universe, are better with inclusivity and compassion for all. To celebrate that and show support for your LGBTQ+ Spartans, we've put together some Halo-themed Pride emblems for you all to use and show-off! You can grab the latest and greatest emblems at aka.ms/343Pride2020Emblems today.

The Master Chief Collection

In addition to the Pride emblems above, we are thrilled to announce that we've added some Pride nameplates to MCC. Simply log into MCC between June 24, 2020 and July 24, 2020 to unlock both nameplates.

The Halo Community is essentially one big family. Dysfunctional, at times, admittedly, but a family nonetheless. We should embrace everybody who has a passion for the ever-growing franchise.

Loving this drop, already made a new discord emote from the transparent version. Going to add some of the helmets as well, thanks so much for the awesome work put into pulling these together :D

This post screams that you need to educate yourself.

Neither does the Valentine or the Ugly Sweater nameplates, but I didn't see any negative posts from either of you about those. Interesting

I personally am glad for this sort of thing. I know folks of all kinds that have been playing Halo, Marathon, and Destiny for longer than most of the folks complaining. Everyone seems to like to suggest this is wrong as it doesn't fit in the game, or the story. Well the UNSC realistically would be a rainbow of different creeds and backgrounds like the ones that founded our country, and the Halo Community alike. So please give your veterans some respect, and maybe don't use offensive racist, homophobic and other vitriolic speech and text in game chat and deal with the fact that they have some emblems...why is that so damned hard?

Oh, the emblems aren't in the game. You have to download them from the link in the original post and then they'll be on your computer.

Well said. It's part of what I love about sci-fi. The societal problems of today are likely obsolete in the future, and Halo tends to reflect that in its characters. Just about everyone is represented somewhere in the Halo Universe.

With that logic, the Christmas nameplate is controversial because it celebrates a Christian holiday.

It’s a nameplate that might offer some happiness to people struggling worldwide. If you do not wish to celebrate their liberation with them, ignore it and move on.

Would be nice to see this as a featured topic sometime before this month is over!

It's good to see and have front and center that 343 and Halo openly support and advocate for the LGBTQIA+ community.
