With only a single life, the objective is to eliminate the opposing team or grab the neutral flag and bring it back to their team's base. Each two minute round ends when one team completes the objective, with five rounds needed to win the game. Players begin with [[M45 shotgun]]s and [[M6H magnum|M6H2 magnum]]s, with multiple weapons being scattered around the map. (The shotguns replaced [[M20 PDW]]s on September 30, 2016.<ref>[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/mode-a-la-mode '''Halo Waypoint''': ''Community Update - Mode À La Mode'']</ref>) | ||

*In the [[Halo 5: Guardians Multiplayer Beta|''Halo 5: Guardians'' beta]], the object of the game mode was to simply eliminate the opposing team. However, this sometimes led to stagnant games due to the ease of [[camping]], so flag capture victory was added to the final version.<ref>'''[[The Sprint]]''', ''[[The Sprint: Mr. October|Mr. October]]''</ref> | |||
*At San Diego Comic-Con 2015 ''Halo'' fans were able to play in an actual Breakout arena with nerf guns. [[Frank O'Connor]] reprised his role as [[Beamish]] to clean up between matches.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dy5eCyHuMsA '''San Diego Comic-Con 2015''']</ref> | *At San Diego Comic-Con 2015 ''Halo'' fans were able to play in an actual Breakout arena with nerf guns.

*The first development and design of the mode started in [[2010]], during the development of ''[[Halo 4]]''. | *Breakout was heavily inspired by "Speedball": competitive paintball with inflatable bunkers that was played by ''Halo'''s multiplayer design director, Kevin Franklin. "Speedball" was also the development name for the prototype Breakout map, [[Crossfire]].{{Ref/Reuse|update}} | ||
