Completing the level on any difficulty unlocks the "[[Requiem (achievement)|Requiem]]" achievement, worth 10 Gamerscore points. The "[[Midnight Launch]]" achievement, worth 20 Gamerscore points, is awarded exclusively in this level for making a jump in a [[M12 Warthog|Warthog]] while the Xbox 360's system clock is set to 00:00 AM.<ref>[http://blogs.halo.xbox.com/Headlines/post/2012/08/22/The-Halo-Bulletin-82212.aspx '''Halo Waypoint''' - ''The Halo Bulletin: 22/08/2012'']</ref>

Accessing the level's [[Terminal (Halo 4)|terminal]] unlocks "[[War (achievement)|War]]", worth 5 Gamerscore points. "[[Interloper]]" and "[[Dark Fortress]]", each worth 10 Gamerscore points, require beating the level's 15 minute par time and 22,000 point par score, respectively.
