The Mongoose in ''Halo 3'' acts as an objective ferry primarily but can also be used to quickly reach out and control other areas.

In ''[[Halo: Reach]]'', the Mongoose is featured on a number of maps in the [[Big Team Battle]] mode. It is one of the primary vehicles used in the [[Race]] gametype.

In ''Halo 5: Guardians'', the Mongoose is a part of the Requistion system. A number of Mongoose spawn in front of each homebase on [[Raid on Apex 7]] both in [[Warzone]] and [[Warzone Firefight (gametype)|Warzone Firefight]].{{Ref/Reuse|H5GMP}}
The Mongoose returns only in the multiplayer of ''[[Halo 2: Anniversary]]''. It functions similarly to previous versions and can be used on ''[[Bloodline]]'' and ''[[Stonetown]]''.{{Ref/Game|H2A|multiplayer|Id=H2AMP}}

The Mongoose was to appear in ''[[Halo Online]]'' prior to its cancellation. It was to be the same design as the the ''Halo: Reach'' and ''Halo 4'' version and to appear on the map ''[[Reactor (Halo Online map)|Reactor]]''.<ref>[[Halo Online Announce Trailer|''Halo Online'', Announce Trailer]]</ref> It was also to appear on ''[[Diamondback]]'' and return to the ported ''Halo 3'' maps that originally had them.{{Ref/Game|HO|multiplayer|Id=HOMP}}

The Mongoose can be spawned through Forge. In the [[Forge/Halo 3|''Halo 3'' Forge]], the [[Forge/Halo: Reach|''Halo: Reach'' Forge]], the [[Forge/Halo 4|''Halo 4'' Forge]], and the [[Forge/Halo 2: Anniversary|''Halo 2: Anniversary'' Forge]]; the ability to spawn the Mongoose is dependent on the map being Forged. In the [[Forge/Halo 5: Guardians|''Halo 5: Guardians'' Forge]] however, the Mongoose and any of its variants can be spawned on any map.

In ''Halo: Reach''{{'}}s forge, the Mongoose can have its color changed through in-game settings. No other forge allows their Mongoose to change. As well, two of the infantry focused maps, ''[[Boardwalk]]'' and ''[[Powerhouse]]'' can have Mongoose spawned on them.
In ''Halo 3''{{'}}s forge, there is [[Mongoose Glitch|a glitch]] allowing players to bypass some map boundaries.{{Ref/Game|H3|forge|Id=H3forge}}
