Skyline is a Halo 4 multiplayer map. It was released as part of the Majestic Map Pack on February 25, 2013.[4]
Universe and lore[edit]
The map is a simulation of level 512 area A06 of Nova Austin Station, a space elevator currently under construction by Lethbridge Industrial, located in the city of Mindoro on Cascade. Destinations from the tower appear to be Elysium City, New Albany, and Casbah.

Production notes[edit]
Skyline features the only appearance of the AV-14 Hornet in Halo 4. It serves as an indestructible piece of background scenery.
The skybox uses a photograph taken from the top of the Tour Montparnasse in Paris, France. The Eiffel Tower was removed from the image, but some Buildings are still noticeable, such as l'École Militaire, or metro stations.
