Halo 5 dev clarifies multiplayer microtransactions

The upcoming title features a new Requisition System (REQ). This system works across Halo 5’s two multiplayer experiences: Arena and Warzone. Every match played earns players REQ Points, which can then be used to purchase REQ Packs.

These packs include a variety of requisitions (REQs), including unlockable weapons and armours, skins, assassination animations and more. But players will also be able to purchase REQ packs with real money. A portion of the proceeds generated will go toward prize pools for the Halo Championship Series.
