As such, its existence is not confirmed, nor are any of its characteristics. As there are no obvious ties in its name to any previous map. It may be a complete remake of the Halo 2 map Lockout or Coagulation, as opposed to the spiritual successor to Lockout, Guardian (as High Ground is to Zanzibar or Valhalla is to Blood Gulch. There is also a name similarity to Desolation, though it may be completely original.
