Adrift, originally codenamed Warhouse, also known as War Games Map_Set/: 726-6[1] is a Halo 4 multiplayer map.[2][3] The map is small, symmetrical stage designed for Slayer gametypes.[3]

Description

Adrift is set on a Colonial Administration Authority Springhill-class mining ship CAA Heavy Burden (CFM-88) orbiting a gas giant near Kholo.[4][5] The map is centered around a large room with multiple levels and walkways, and a stationary HRUNTING/YGGDRASIL Mark II (D) exoskeleton under construction by a series of robot arms.[6] The outer area of the map features man cannons which allow players to quickly traverse the area.[5] An asteroid belt can also be seen looming over the map.[6][7]

Trivia

In the E3 2012 build, the mining vessel's hull classification symbol was FFG-88, designating it as a frigate.
