Production[edit]

Prototype Escape from ARC as seen in The Sprint: All In.
Test match of Escape from ARC featuring cut AI Kiz.

Several bosses and enemies were cut from the level. The earliest ones included the Covenant Banshee Pilots Nor and Kiz, and Ootu.[5] Later, the Promethean Master Intex was debuted at E3 2015 but cut prior to release.[6]

In a developer build prior to E3 2015, the map was called "Escape from Cantor Landing".[7]

Trivia[edit]

If one were to watch in the background for an extended period of time, they will be able to watch a rocket in the background begin to launch. Eventually it will take off and start heading into the sky.
