Team SWAT was originally a Double EXP Weekend playlist, but is now a permanent playlist under the [[Team Hardcore (Halo 3)|Hardcore]] playlists group in the matchmaking menu, and is ranked. The legendary map pack and heroic map pack are required to play this playlist. Originally, it was only standard and Magnums, but it has been expanded in the June Update to include SWATGuns (shotguns only), 2 flag CTF, and SWAT Ball. Unlike ''Halo 2'', ''Halo 3'' SWAT does not feature the SWAT Carbines gametype as it is not featured as a starting weapon due to a coding error. Carbines have since been added to standard maps as a secondary weapon for players.
