The model for the Guardian enemy remains in ''Halo 3'' as a hologram on the map [[Epitaph]], though this was noted by Miller to have no particular significance beyond the multiplayer team liking the look of the design.{{Ref/Reuse|YTRocketSloth}} This model was later canonised in the ''[[Halo Encyclopedia (2022 edition)]]'' as the definitive look for the [[ancilla]] [[Offensive Bias]], and featured in the ''[[Halo Infinite]]'' campaign as a hologram.
