Players are now launched to the field with man cannons similar to the [[Breakout]] round start, and goal explosions now feature fireworks | Players are now launched to the field with man cannons similar to the [[Breakout]] round start, and goal explosions now feature fireworks. The gameplay is similar to the default ''Halo 4'' incarnation with single round and respawning ball, except the ball must be picked up with X button (as in earlier games and in ''Halo 4'' Grifball Pro). The new movement options of ''Halo 5: Guardians'' also have an effect on gameplay: the railings surrounding the maps, which were previously only accessible by careful Gravity Hammer boosting by other players, can now be [[Spartan abilities#Clamber|clambered]] on. [[Spartan abilities#Ground Pound|Ground pound]] can also be effective, especially when carrying the ball; a well-targeted ground pound can both clear the surroundings of the goal and score at the same time. The game also features new Grifball medals. | ||
