''Halo Wars'' features the V2 Scarab as a playable unit in [[Skirmish]] and multiplayer modes, though it is smaller for the sake of gameplay. Each Scarab costs 3,000 resources and 20 population in Skirmish, with no upgrades available due to their cost. Up to two can be spawned at a time in a [[Standard (Halo Wars)|Standard]] mode and four in [[Deathmatch (Halo Wars)|Deathmatch]] mode. The latest Title Update for ''Halo Wars'' enhanced the Scarab by providing an additional 25% hitpoints and produces increase damage of 25%, and is now capable of surviving four direct MAC blasts as a result of the improved hitpoints.

The Scarabs excel at attacking vehicles and infantry with their powerful weapons, though aircraft take longer for the Scarab to take down. Scarabs are very mobile, being able to climb over most obstacles. Only certain obstructions, like craters or fire, can block them. In the campaign level ''Beachhead'', the player may use a [[SPARTAN-II Program|Spartan]] to commandeer an abandoned Scarab. Commandeering this Scarab and using it to destroy twenty-five enemy units unlocks the achievement [[Beaming with Pride]].
