Like its ''Halo: Combat Evolved'' predecessor, Blood Gulch takes the form of a desert box canyon, with cliff paths on either side. At either end of the canyon lies one of two player starting bases, with two neutral [[Unidentified insurrectionist group|rebel]] faction [[Rebel base|bases]] towards the middle of the map. The map has a symmetrical placement of neutral objectives, with the cliff to the right of each base (from the base's perspective) containing a [[Forerunner supply elevator|supply elevator]] and two [[ | Like its ''Halo: Combat Evolved'' predecessor, Blood Gulch takes the form of a desert box canyon, with cliff paths on either side.
