*The birth date established for Spartan [[Bonita Stone]] was later contradicted by information provided in the novel ''[[Halo: The Rubicon Protocol]]'', released later in [[2022]]. For more information, see [[Halo: The Rubicon Protocol#Production notes|here]].
While the encyclopedia, as a whole, has far fewer mistakes and errors when compared to its [[Halo Encyclopedia (2009 edition)|2009 predecessor]], inconsistencies are still present throughout the book. A full list of them can be found [[Halo Encyclopedia (2022 edition)/Mistakes|here]].
 
===Mistakes===
*The [[CQS48 Bulldog]] is stated as having an 8-round magazine. The correct number of rounds should be 7.
*The image captions for the [[Sangheili Honor Guardsman]] and the [[Sangheili Councilor]] are swapped.
*The [[M247H machine gun]] is given two conflicting infoboxes on pages 174-175, with the conflicting designations M247 heavy machine gun and M247H heavy machine gun. The two images seem to use the ''[[Halo Infinite]]'' model and the ''[[Halo: Reach]]'' model respectively, and provide conflicting length measurements of {{Convert|64.6|in|cm|sp=us}} and {{Convert|64.5|in|cm|sp=us}}, respectively. It is unclear whether this is intended to explicitly separate the two models into similar, albeit different weapons, or a mistake on the part of the authors.
*On pages 136 and 180, the ''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]'' chaingun is referred to as the [[M49 Vulcan]], while on page 170 it is named as the M250 heavy machine gun.
*On page 136, the ''Halo 5: Guardians'' gauss cannon is erroneously referred to as the M69, while its dedicated infobox on page 181 refers to it as the [[M70 Gauss cannon]].
*On page 153, the image captions for the [[Series 8 jetpack]] and the [[Series 12 jetpack]] are swapped.
*The designation provided for the {{Class|Stalwart|light frigate}}'s [[Magnetic Accelerator Cannon]] is given as the 21X5V9 MAC, contradicting the 56A2D4 established in ''[[Halo: Warfleet – An Illustrated Guide to the Spacecraft of Halo|Halo: Warfleet]]''.
*The weapons loadout listed for the {{Class|Charon|light frigate}} is retained as that established for {{UNSCShip|Forward Unto Dawn}} in ''[[Halo 4]]''; in ''Halo 4'', the ship was incorrectly depicted as ''much'' bigger than any UNSC frigate or cruiser, and had a massive armaments complement to match. As such, the armaments loadout provided (particularly the three [[M4093 Hyperion nuclear delivery system|Hyperion missiles]]) would not be able to fit inside the canon ''Charon''.
**The ''Halo 4''-given armaments for the ''Charon'' include 3 Hyperion missiles, and 50 [[Archer missile]] pods; the canon model (as depicted in ''Halo 3'' wouldn't be able to fit any Hyperions inside, and only has 5 Archer pods. The number of [[Magnetic Accelerator Cannon]]s and [[M870 Rampart point defense gun|Rampart]] point-defence turrets remains accurate to the canon model.
*The size statistics for the [[Klavrig Workshop Skitterer]], as listed on page 457, are enormous and much bigger than the Skitterer's in-game model or the [[:File:HW2 Skitterer.jpg|concept art]] scale reference, and even bigger than other vehicles in ''[[Halo Wars 2]]'' such as the [[Barukaza Workshop Locust|Locust]]. It is unclear whether this is an intentional upscaling, or an error in numbers.
*On page 458, [[Okro 'Vagaduun]]'s birth world is listed as [[Feldokra]] while ''[[Halo Infinite]]'' instead establishes that he was born on Sanghelios' blood-moon, [[Suban]].
* On page 479, the {{Pattern|Posu'gelka|needler}} is stated to be manufactured by Lodham Armory. Given [[Lodam Armory]] is a known manufacturer of the Needler, and this is the first time a “Lodham Armory” is mentioned in the series, it is most likely a typo.
