The machete is available for use as a [[Armor customization (Halo 3)#Halo: The Master Chief Collection|backpack accessory]] in ''Halo 3'', added into the game in [[Season 6: Raven|Season 6]] of ''[[Halo: The Master Chief Collection]]''. The machete is a part of the "Sword and Board" permutation, featuring the machete with a [[UNSC shield|shield]] and a [[Sangheili]] skull - intended to emulate the Legendary difficulty sigil. During the Season 6 [[flight]], the Sword and Board permutation featured two crossed machetes, though later in the flight and final release the model was updated to only show one, with the shield now inheriting the player's primary colour. This marks the first time the machete has been seen in a ''Halo'' game outside of the difficulty shield insignia.

The machete is featured as the sword found on the difficulty emblems for [[Normal]], [[Heroic]] and [[Legendary]] difficulty in all currently-released ''Halo'' games aside from ''[[Halo 3: ODST]]'' and ''[[Halo: The Master Chief Collection]]'', which replaces the machete with [[M7S SMG]]s and [[Type-1 energy sword|energy swords]]. It is given some in-universe flavour text in the menus for ''[[Halo 2 (Windows Vista)|Halo 2's PC port]]'' alongside the [[UNSC shield]].

During the [[Development of Halo: Combat Evolved|development of ''Halo: Combat Evolved'']], a weapon bearing visual resemblance to the machete was intended for inclusion in the game. Known as the [[Pattern-2 Composite Sword]], it is likely that the difficulty shield machetes are based upon this cut design.
