| |
| Stalker was first introduced into the ''Halo'' games as an [[Armor customization (Halo 4)|armor set]] in ''[[Halo 4]]''. Players need to first reach [[Rank (Halo 4)|SR-50]] to unlock Stalker and seven other [[Specialization]]s. Progression through the Stalker Specialization ranks grant players with the Stalker armor permutations, Stalker [[multiplayer emblems|multiplayer emblems (foregrounds and background)]], the [[Support upgrades#List of upgrades|Nemesis support upgrade]], and the [[BR85HB battle rifle]] DUNES (DNE) weapon skin.
