We have our first official look at the skulls in Halo 5: Guardians and it looks like nothing has really changed since Halo 4's additions. This isn't so bad, considering Grunt Birthday Party and IWHBYD were amazing additions (the confetti laced headshots were amazing).
This skull reveal comes the campaign menu of Halo 5, through a preview build of the game – so it might not be the final set of skulls for the game. Earlier this week a game tester leaked information regarding unlockable items in multiplayer, but this reveal isn't anything like that. Microsoft approved of the reveal before it was posted.
