Sex & Nudity

  • In the beginning of halo combat evolved, cortana says master chief's anatomy is similar to that of the pillar of autumn, and he replies "don't get any funny ideas"
  • The only "sexual" stuff is Cortana. A small blue AI with a human like appearance. She seems to be naked but no anatomical parts are shown. In halo 4, she appears to be more curvy.

Violence & Gore

  • Shooting enemies and corpses will cause blood of different colors to spurt out, and it often times stains the environment. However humans and aliens cannot be dismembered. The flood however are capable of losing their limbs and heads, usually done with gun blasts. Blood spurts still apply to them, and their blood is yellow.
  • Not really violent some blood when they die and you can shoot your fellow teammates
  • Moderate levels of violence.
  • Master Chief, the main character you control, can shoot and stab soldiers, aliens and the like, especially, in all four games. Levels of blood vary.
  • There's more blood in Combat Evolved than in Halo Two, however, the Classic Mode makes stains of blood look so fake, but, the picture look less detailed. In Anniversary, that much blood so that they're lying in pools of it can happen. So can aliens, and again, it varies on the level of blood.
  • Most enemies are aliens, and green and blue and purple and other blood will surround them, and the disturbing sight is several dead soldiers lying in their own pools of blood, which is explorable, but, you're supposed to pass, really quickly.
  • In Halo 3 and Halo 4, we can see that there's only splats of blood, at least, when people and aliens are shot. In all games, grenades and energy swords (purple electronic things), plus guns, and stuff, can be used. The term melee means that you hit someone, close up, once or twice, and then kill them. The Needler puts needles through people. Needles to say. The weapons can also beat people.

Profanity

  • All of the games here have some swearing here and there. It's mostly just "crap" "hell" and "damn". There are some infrequent uses of shit and bitch, but that's the strongest you will find so far. You will notice that the profanity begins to tone down as the series progresses, which you can tell because halo combat evolved and halo 2 have the most swearing.

Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking

  • One character smokes a cigar in Halo 2 and 3.

Frightening & Intense Scenes

  • Halo franchise is wrongfully rated M compared to T rated games such as the Uncharted Franchise, The Lost Planet games, Ark, Apex Legends, PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds, Slender: The Arrival, Alan Wake, some Star Wars games such as Knights Of The Old Republic and Republic Commando, Spider-Man PS4, Timesplitters 2, Battlefield: Bad Company and especially Call Of Duty 1-3, the first 2 Batman Arkham games and Dark Souls 2. Halo contains about the same amount of mature content as all of these games and less than the last 3 listed here.
  • Extremely tame for an M rating, however the flood may frighten some players especially with the updated graphics but even then the games should still pass for a T rating.
  • Some levels have a creepy atmosphere that can frighten some.
  • The opening mission in Halo: Combat Evolved is very intense.
  • Halo 2 has two jumpscares.
  • The ending of Halo 3 is sad and depressing.
  • The last three missions of Halo 4 is creepy and intense.
  • The flood is an alien race that can be frightening because of their monstrous appearance and abilities.
