Terminal (Halo 2: Anniversary)

"This is a time to rejoice, a moment that all fiction fans should savor. For the Halo 2: Anniversary Terminals can be found, and with them, your path will be clear; your entry into a greater understanding guaranteed. Your next Great Journey is nigh, and nothing – not even the Flood – can stop it..."

- Jeff Easterling on the terminals, paraphrasing the Prophet of Truth

Halo 2 Anniversary features Terminals accessible to the player in each level. Animated by Sequence, these terminals focus on the role of Thel 'Vadam as well as that of the Arbiters throughout Covenant history and have connections to the story of Halo 5: Guardians. The terminals are presented from three distinct points of view: target profiles by ONI agent Lt. Commander Jameson Locke, a Sangheili warrior doubting the Covenant religion, and a devout Covenant scribe.

The terminals have been stated to be placed in more conspicuous locations than in the earlier games, as 343 Industries wishes all players to be able to find them. Like the terminals of Halo 4, the Halo 2 Anniversary terminals will not be hosted on the game disc and will only be accessible online. There is a total of thirteen terminals to be found in the game, and two separate "Prologue" terminals.
