'''Icebox''' is a map featured in the cancelled ''[[Halo Online]]'' game and a remake of the ''[[Halo 2]]'' map [[Turf]]. The map will be ported into the ''[[Halo 3]]'' multiplayer component of ''[[Halo: The Master Chief Collection]]'' during [[Season 8]].{{Ref/Site|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/forums/243780d3b80b4bb6ac7917a8942286db/topics/mcc-development-flighting-updates/3e3252e1-297a-4590-a7ab-67c133b3d37d/posts?page=5#post100|Site=Halo Waypoint Forums|Page=MCC Development & Flighting Updates Page 5|Detail=Post 100|D=27|M=8|Y=2021}}

Icebox is set in [[Precinct 13]], a downtown district of [[Tyumen]]. Befitting its setting, the map is covered in snow and ice, with several [[energy shield]] barriers installed on the main street to seal the sector off for urban combat training in [[War Games]] and a small [[UNSC]] outpost is present in the street. Outside the map, the metropolis of Tyumen can be seen. The buildings in the district have signs written in Russian, though a few bear the logo of [[Cascade Stronghold Technologies]]. Due to the cancellation of ''Halo Online'', the map is considered non-canon.

Icebox is a remake of the ''Halo 2'' [[Killtacular Pack]] map [[Turf]], and features an almost identical layout, being asymmetric and focusing on small-medium sized numbers of players. The map features an L-shaped main road forming the boundary of two of the map's exterior edges, with the remaining section in between formed of tight alleys and courtyards. A single neutral [[Warthog]] spawns on the corner of the large road in the middle of the map, with the [[Sniper Rifle]] spawning nearby on a platform. By both team spawns there is a [[Brute Shot]].

*The [[Type-47A Scarab]] has been removed, leaving only rubble in its place.

*Some places are now blocked off with [[energy shields]].

===Changes from ''Halo Online'' Icebox===

*The Warthog was changed from a ice/snow covered ''[[Halo: Reach]]'' [[M12 Warthog]] to a [[M864 Arctic Warthog]].
