The single-occupant pods were the sole variety of Covenant drop pod featured in the games until ''[[Halo: Reach]]'', which introduced the multiple-troop version. The pods made their first appearance in the [[Halo 2 E3 Demo]], where the Elites came down and openly challenged John-117 with their [[energy sword]]s. In the games, they first appear in the ''Halo 2''<nowiki />'s campaign level [[Outskirts]] and subsequently are present around [[Mombasa]]. They also appear in the campaign levels [[Sacred Icon (level)|Sacred Icon]], [[Quarantine Zone(level)|Quarantine Zone]], and [[Uprising]], occupied by allies of the [[Thel 'Vadam|Arbiter]]. | The single-occupant pods were the sole variety of Covenant drop pod featured in the games until ''[[Halo: Reach]]'', which introduced the multiple-troop version.

The Covenant drop pods make a return in ''Halo: Reach'', in which they appear more rounded and bulky than the previous versions. The appearance of the drop pod changed dramatically from the [[Halo: Reach E3 Campaign Demo|E3 2010 demo]] to its launch version. In the E3 demo it appeared to be more boxy and angular, while the launch version is smoother, more detailed and is more like a wider version of the one from ''[[Halo 2]]''. | The Covenant drop pods make a return in ''Halo: Reach'', in which they appear more rounded and bulky than the previous versions.
