| Oasis is set in and around an [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] research facility atop a cliffside on a far-flung [[Natural satellite|moon]].{{Ref/Reuse|YTSept22Update}}{{Ref/Site|Id=CFEchoes|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/news/canon-fodder-echoes-with-dinh|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Canon Fodder - Echoes With-Dinh|D=24|M=03|Y=2023}} In early [[2553]], [[ONI Section Three]] initiated [[Operation: INTERIOR EXILE]], a recon mission with the goal of establishing this research site that would serve to examine a dormant [[Forerunner]] [[Forerunner starship|starship]] embedded in the moon's rocky terrain. However, this initial effort ended in failure, with agents [[Hieu Dinh|Dinh]] and [[Padraig]] being among the few survivors.{{Ref/Site|Id=S3Intel|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/news/echoes-within-intel|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Halo Infinite - Echoes Within Intel|D=27|M=03|Y=2023|LocalArchive=Halo Infinite Story & Intel}}{{Ref/Reuse|CFEchoes}}
| | This map is set in and around a [[UNSC]] research site on a desert cliff on an unknown [[Natural satellite|moon]]. The facility was constructed for the purpose of studying a mysterious [[Forerunner]] artifact. To further study the artifact, the UNSC dug into the cliffside, creating a cavern system.{{Ref/Reuse|YTSept22Update}} |

| Ultimately, the facility was constructed and to further study [[Lifeworker terraforming vessel|the vessel]], ONI dug into the cliffside, creating a cavern system,{{Ref/Reuse|YTSept22Update}} seemingly discovering an mysterious artifact in a fissure below the base.{{Ref/Map|Id=Oasis|HINF|Oasis (map)|Oasis}} At some point after the [[The Reclamation|start]] of the [[Created uprising]] in [[2558#October|October 2558]], the [[Created]] managed to take control of the dormant vessel. By [[2560]], an unnamed Created-aligned [[artificial intelligence]] has reactivated the vessel's creation engines, beginning the process of [[terraforming]] the desolate world as part of a wish to create life where there was once none and to follow in the footsteps of the Forerunner [[Lifeworker]]s.{{Ref/Reuse|S3MapModePreview}}{{Ref/Reuse|CFEchoes}}{{Ref/Reuse|S3Intel}}

| *The ''[[Halo 4]]'' map [[Exile]] was a major inspiration for some of the elements of Oasis.{{Ref/Reuse|S3MapModePreview}}
| | *This map is one of the largest [[Big Team Battle]] maps in ''[[Halo Infinite]]''. It was created with both infantry and vehicle routes in mind, with a particular emphasis on vehicle combat. There are wide open spaces conducive to both air and ground vehicle combat, and there are larger than average number of vehicles available on the map.{{Ref/Reuse|YTSept22Update}} |
