Parallax is a Halo 5: Guardians multiplayer map intended for use as a Forge canvas.[1] The map was released as part of the Cartographer's Gift update on December 16, 2015.[2]

Overview

Parallax has no actual terrain, but does have boundary markers which disappear during games.[1] In forge, players can change the map's skybox to one of four appearances: 'Blue Planet', 'Halo Ring', 'Exosphere' and 'Ascendance' - an unknown blue celestial body[note 1], the center of Installation 04 (much like the skybox of the map Truth), the Urs system, featuring Sanghelios and its moons Qikost and Suban in the background (much like in the opening cutscene of the campaign level Swords of Sanghelios), and a cloudy area with mountains below, respectively.

Notes

  1. ^ Although the skybox's name refers to the object as a planet, it may actually be intended to be a star. The lack of a nearby sun to light the supposed planet suggests that the object itself is a sun emitting its own light.
