The Proving Grounds is a multiplayer map in Halo Wars 2. The map is exclusively playable in the Blitz gametype, and was included in the second beta of the game.[1] This map is also used for Blitz Firefight.

Description[edit]

The Proving Grounds is set on Installation 00, and is largely symmetrical. Each side of the map has a team base, and the centre is dominated by three control points - A, B and C.

Themes[edit]

With the May 2017[2] multiplayer update, two new visual themes were added for this map:
