'''Outskirts''' is a ''[[Halo 2]]'' [[campaign]] level. As the [[John-117|Master Chief]], you must battle your way through the streets of [[Old Mombasa]], [[Earth]], with [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marines]] to reach the beach. From there you head to a [[New Mombasa 105 East|highway]] tunnel, which leads to the next level, [[Metropolis]]. This is the first level in which you will encounter [[Kig-yar|Jackals]], [[Kig-yar Sniper|Jackal Snipers]], [[Mgalekgolo|Hunters]], and [[Type-52 Troop Carrier|Phantom]] Dropships, as well as the first ''Halo 2'' level in which you can hijack vehicles; it is also the first mission to take place on Earth itself. It holds a record number of Jackal Snipers; a total of 22 in all, most of which are located in the infamous "Sniper Alley".[[Video:Halo 2 Walkthrough Remake - Part 4 - Outskirts Part 1|thumb|300px|right]][[Video:Halo 2 Walkthrough Remake - Part 5 - Outskirts Part 2|thumb|300px|right]][[Video:Halo 2 Walkthrough Remake - Part 6 - Outskirts Part 3|thumb|300px|right]]

''The pilot goes silent as a huge [[Type-47 Ultra Heavy Assault Platform|Scarab]] comes into view. Its leg spears a truck which explodes, then its main cannon focuses and fires, destroying the lead Pelican. The two other Pelicans veer off, but Plasma Turrets on the Scarab's back let loose. The leftward dropship, with Johnson and the Chief on board, catches a burst of plasma on its right flank, flips inverted, hits a building, and slides through a low brick wall, before blacking out the frame. Slowly but surely we then fade back in to a distorted version of the Master Chief's perspective, initially blurred and then becoming clearer after a few seconds...''
