Riptide is a multiplayer map in Halo 5: Guardians, and a remix of Fathom. It was released as part of the Infinity's Armory content update.[2]

The map is a simulation of an abandoned Imbrium Machine Complex facility on a human colony world controlled by the Created, who intend to re-terraform it. It includes the Halo 2 battle rifle.[3]

Trivia[edit]

  • There are four Grunt toys that are hidden throughout the map.
  • This map has a spot where two deckchairs and an umbrella are staring out into the ocean outside the map.
  • In one of the plant boxes hides a cube, which is a Mr. Meeseeks box from the show Rick and Morty.
  • There is occasionally a Paelosur breaching out of the water in the distance.
  • A flight of three Pelicans will occasionally fly by.
