'''Warzone''' is a [[multiplayer]] gametype introduced in ''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]''. Similar in concept to [[Big Team Battle]], [[Invasion]], and ''[[Halo 4]]'s'' [[Dominion]], Warzone pits two teams of 12 players against one another in a race to capture bases, kill bosses, and destroy the opposing side's core.
'''Warzone''' is a [[multiplayer]] gametype introduced in ''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]''.
 
Warzone featured a few offshoot variants, including Warzone Assault, an asymmetric gametype where one team is tasked with capturing bases in three phases. This gametype opted to remove bosses and AI. Warzone Turbo was a developmental gametype turned official, in which both teams start with full [[Requisition system|energy]]. This gametype operates the same as a normal Warzone match bar this.
 
In the titular [[Warzone Firefight]] update, a new gametype turning Warzone into an 8 player, PvE (player versus enemy), wave-based gametype was introduced. Removing base captures, core destruction, and PvP (player versus player) gameplay, Warzone Firefight operated in a manner closer to ''[[Halo 3: ODST]]'s'' and ''[[Halo: Reach]]'s'' [[Firefight]] offerings, with its own twist, forcing players to engage in five waves with various challenges, ranging from base defense to basic enemy destruction.

==Overview==
Warzone features large-scale combat with two teams of 12 [[SPARTAN-IV program|Spartans]] facing off against each other on large maps populated by AI-controlled [[Jul 'Mdama's Covenant|Covenant]] and [[Promethean]] enemies, including named boss units that occasionally appear on the battlefield. A team achieves victory by attaining 1000 points, which are gained by killing both enemy players and AI enemies, or by capturing all three bases on the map and destroying the enemy team's core, located in their [[base]].<ref name="thebest">[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xPVdzBcCsw8 '''YouTube''': ''Halo 5: Guardians - The Best is Yet to Come (Interview) - E3 2015'']</ref><ref>[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/community/blog-posts/halo-community-update-8-2-15 '''Halo Waypoint''': ''Halo Community Update 8.2.15'']</ref> In the beginning of a match both teams are dropped to their respective bases via [[D79-TC Pelican|Pelican]] and have to clear the base of AI enemies. A contingent of AI-controlled [[Marine]]s aligned with either team is also stationed in each base. There are armories and garages on the map that can be captured by the players to give access to superior weapons and vehicles, respectively, and are part of the game's new [[Requisition pack|Requisition]] system.<ref name="rul gameplay">[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F6Xz2Ggn5tU '''YouTube''': ''Halo 5 WARZONE GAMEPLAY | Full Match | Phaeton, Plasma Caster, Running Riot'']</ref><ref name="vidoc">[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eotvrop7qlU '''YouTube''': ''Halo 5 Warzone ViDoc'']</ref>

The Requisitions available to the players are determined by their energy level, which is accrued over the course of the game, as well as the REQ cards they have purchased or earned by leveling up their [[Rank (Halo 5: Guardians)|Spartan Rank]]. The requisition packs allow players to respawn with a certain weapon or in a vehicle of their choosing,{{Ref/Reuse|rul gameplay}} with a higher energy level providing access to more powerful items (although the player must also possess the REQ card for that item). Warzone is the only multiplayer mode in the game allowing the use of non-cosmetic Requisitions.{{Ref/Reuse|thebest}}

===Spawning===
===Spawning===
Warzone features two new spawning systems. The first system ensures players spawn on capturable Warzone Bases. This system uses spawn points placed in three groups called "rings". The first ring is made up of spawns placed inside the base. These are the highest priority spawns that are most commonly selected by the engine when the player selects the base as a spawn location. If there is combat inside the base, however, the engine will ignore spawns in the first ring and instead evaluate spawns in the second spawn ring. This second ring is comprised of spawns placed just outside the base. The third ring is the failsafe ring and contains spawn points significantly further away from the base. The spawn engine will only spawn players in the third ring if combat around the base is so chaotic that all spawn points in the other two rings are suppressed.

The second system, called "bro spawning", finds groups of players using clustering analysis to understand who is working together as a team. Each set of players is then evaluated to determine if it's suitable to for a player to join by looking at a number of factors: confidence level in group directional heading, number of players in the cluster, combat status and enemy player presence. Once a compatible cluster has been identified, spawns are generated dynamically around that group.<ref>[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/community/blog-posts/community-update-the-light-is-green '''Halo Waypoint''': ''Community Update: The Light is Green'']</ref>

===Warzone Assault===
{{Main|Warzone Assault}}
Warzone Assault is an asymmetrical 12 versus 12 base attack/defense scenario without AI enemies. In this variant, one team is tasked with defending the bases on the map while the other team attempts to capture each base and push the other team back. The defending team must hold each base until a set time limit runs out. If the attacking team manages to capture a base, they force the defending team back and extend the timer. If all bases are captured the attackers must assault the defenders' home base and destroy their core to win.<ref>[http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=168591108&postcount=9516 '''NeoGaf''': ''post #9516 by Josh Holmes'']</ref> Warzone Assault is conceptually very similar to the [[Invasion]] mode of ''[[Halo: Reach]]''.

===Warzone Turbo===
{{Main|Warzone Turbo}}
Warzone Turbo is a gametype in which players automatically reach Level 9 after securing their Home Base. They obtain full access to their REQ inventory, with energy recharging extremely faster than usual, thus enabling the use of a myriad of REQ cards throughout the game. It is conceptually a mix of [[Fiesta]] and [[Big Team Battle|BTB Heavies]].

Originally the gametype was not intended for inclusion in matchmaking, as it was created for playtesting so that developers could efficiently test Warzone's features at any time during the game. However the developers decided to include it temporarily after recognizing it was an interesting concept. The [[List of Halo 5: Guardians weekend playlists|weekend playlist]] "Weekend Warzone Turbo" has been added to matchmaking several times, usually around the release of a new content update.<ref>[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/community/blog-posts/meridian-awaits '''Halo Waypoint''': ''Meridian Awaits'']</ref>
