Template:Multiplayer Map Infobox Template:Article Quote The Pit[1] is a Halo 3 multiplayer map.
It was revealed in a Bungie Humpday Challenge, and footage of it was confirmed to have been shown in one of the Halo 3 video documentaries. The level is aptly named because it "has a lot of geometry to jump around", and features both a symmetrical layout and weapons placement. The map is divided into three sections, each with a powerful asset: a section with the Overshield, another with the Active Camoflague, and yet another with the M41 Rocket Launcher. A Sniper Rifle is also present on the map, although strangely, it is not listed as one of the major control factors.
It has been stated by Bungie that controlling the Rocket Launcher and one of the two powerups confers a significant strategic advantage.
It bears a small resemblance to Turf, a map in Halo 2.
Bungie originally called the map "Gym Class" before the game was finished.
