"The Covenant have harnessed the waters of this moon to refuel their massive supercarriers."

—Map description

Penance is a multiplayer map included in Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary for Halo Reach.^[1] It is a remake of Damnation from Halo: Combat Evolved with several alterations to map layout.^[1] A Forge variant with similar title to the Halo Combat Evolved version is also available for those who prefer the classic multiplayer map.

[edit] Setting

The map is set in a massive Covenant hydro-processing center on Buwan, the primary satellite of the Unggoy homeworld Balaho.^[3] The moon provides resources necessary to power and refuel a variety of capital ships. During the breaking of the Covenant Empire, the facility was left abandoned but is still operational via automated subsystems.^[3]

The following are locations on the map that are so named on the player's heads-up display during gameplay:

The Grunt in a Barrel easter egg can be found in this map.

Damnation, a forge variant of Penance, features an almost identical layout and an identical weapon placement of the original Halo Combat Evolved version.
