Waterfall is one of [[Cut Halo Online levels|several levels]] intended for inclusion in ''Halo Online'', prior to the game's cancellation. Prior to [[2021 (real world)|2021]], little was known about the map as it was never featured in any of the ''Halo Online'' testing releases; the only information relating to the map was the text strings in the MS30 ''Halo Online'' build referencing the map's name and description. Some concept art was posted online by [[:Category:Images by Pavel Belov|Pavel Belov]] showcasing the map's described setting of a hidden UNSC base.{{Ref/Site|URL=https://www.artstation.com/artwork/Z5evkm|Site=ArtStation|Page=ENV|Y=2021|M=2|D=12}} | Waterfall is one of [[Cut Halo Online levels|several levels]] intended for inclusion in ''Halo Online'', prior to the game's cancellation.

However, those same displays were changed to say "Zehar VI" by the time the season was released and Waterfall was officially added to the game. Despite this, "Zezar VI" could still be seen in shadow behind the "Zehar VI" text. As of [[Series 7: Elite|Series 7]], the screens identify the planet as Zehar VI, with the shadowed text being fixed to reflect this new name as well.{{Ref/Map|Id=WaterfallScreens|H3|Waterfall|Detail=On-map screens}} | ||
