"Rally scattered marines, clear hostile contacts from the old-city."
Outskirts is a Halo 2 campaign level. As John-117, you must battle your way through the streets of Old Mombasa, Earth, with Marines to reach the beach.
From there you head to a highway tunnel, which leads to the next level, Metropolis. This is also the first level in which you will encounter Jackals, Jackal Snipers, Hunters, and Phantom Dropships, as well as the first Halo 2 level in which you can drive vehicles, and the first mission to take place on Earth.
Outskirts is also the level in Halo 2 that holds a record number of Jackal Snipers; a total of 22 in all, most of which are located in the notorious "Sniper Alley".
