Spartan Rank is an XP-based rank scheme that levels a player up based on XP accumulated and gametime played. There are 99 levels to achieve, with each level-up earning the player a [[Blitz]] pack. XP can be gained by playing all gamemodes (such as [[campaign]], [[Terminus Firefight]], non-competitive playlists and others), and is not indicative of a player's skill level.{{Ref/Reuse|20Q}}{{Ref/Note|All XP data listed in the table is taken from the public ''Halo Wars 2'' API, accessible [https://developer.haloapi.com/ here].}} | Spartan Rank is an XP-based rank scheme that levels a player up based on XP accumulated and gametime played.

Each rank is accompaned by a military rank from the [[UNSC rank structure]], though the titles themselves change once every other level (IE a player is ranked as an Army Private at Rank 7, and is changed to a Corporal when they hit Rank 9). At launch, there were only 50 ranks available to achieve, with "6th Star" being the final attainable unlock. In the [[Season 8 (Halo Wars 2)#November balance patch notes|November 10, 2017 balance patch]], an additional 49 ranks were added into the game to unlock; ranks 51-98 simply retain the title of "6th Star", with rank 99 being the title of [[Reclaimer]].{{Ref/Site|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/forums/38bd6e2ebbb14e5b9b359bb029588800/topics/balance-update--nov-10-updated-nov-17/9f822341-5545-43cb-9891-10ed97b8d99a/posts?page=1|SiteName=Halo Waypoint|PageName=Balance Update- Nov. 10 (Updated: Nov 17)}} | Each rank is accompaned by a military rank from the [[UNSC rank structure]], though the titles themselves change once every other level (IE a player is ranked as an Army Private at Rank 7, and is changed to a Corporal when they hit Rank 9).
