The soccer ball can be placed on any of the [[Heroic Map Pack|Heroic DLC Maps]]. It can be used as a rolling weapon with vehicle-like splattering capabilities, a shield since it is indestructible, or simply a ball for playing soccer. Game types and maps for soccer ball usage became downloadable content in the [[Bungie]] Favorites on Wednesday, December 12, 2007.

Using the Soccer Ball, some people play a form of [[Grifball]]. Instead of it being an [[Assault]] game variant, they use Forge and make soccer goals and try to whack them in with the [[Gravity Hammer]]s, sometimes using [[overshields]] or changing game settings to keep players from dying. It is recommended using hammers or melee.
