'''Medals''' are preset rewards in [[multiplayer]] or in the [[campaign]] that showcase special achievements that a player makes through the game, usually by killing opponents in a special way, a certain number of opponents at a time or in one life, or by achieving some objective. Medals appear in all Halo games except ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]'' and ''[[Halo Wars]]''.

Multiplayer medals do not appear in their physical form in ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]'', but some of their accomplishments are occasionally listed despite this. [[The announcer]] will announce [[Double Kill]]s, [[Triple Kill]]s, [[Killtacular]]s, as well as [[Killing Spree]]s and [[Running Riot]]s. However, none of these medals have physical representations, and [[Xbox Live]] has no way of recording them as the game does not utilize Xbox Live.

[[Halo: Combat Evolved campaign medals|Campaign medals]], awarded for completing certain actions within the campaign, were originally intended to appear in the game, but were ultimately cut before release. They would have been more similar to [[Achievements]] rather than later campaign medals.

Medals made their first real appearance in ''Halo 2''. There are 23 medals available to win, which fit into four general categories; "Consecutive kills" are the streak of medals which acknowledge a number of kills within four second of each other. Double Kills for two, Triple Kills for three, Killtaculars for four, Kill Frenzies for five, Killtrocities for six, and Killmanjaros for seven kills. "Spree" medals are awarded for a number of kills a player achieves without dying. Killing Sprees are given for five kills in one life, Running Riots for ten, Rampages for fifteen, Berserkers for twenty, and Overkills for twenty five. The third Category is "special kills" and these are awarded on the basis of special ways a player kills another player. There is an award for killing players with [[Sniper Rifle]]s, {{Pattern|Anskum|plasma grenade}}s, vehicles, and [[melee]] attacks from the front and back. There is also a medal for making [[Carjacking]]s.

Also, there are objective medals available in special [[gametype]]s. The [[CTF]] gametype has a medal for taking a flag, killing a person who has a flag, and returning a flag to your base. The [[Assault]] gametype has a medal for when a player plants a bomb and when they kill someone holding the bomb.
