I could be wrong. I could be right. Either way, I couldn’t help but to think about how the cover’s subtitle can lead to the possibility of this next installment to include a remake of Halo 3’s Guardian.
Since Guardian is a small-scale map and, thus, is centered more towards competitive play, the possibility of it returning in Halo 5: Guardians may confirm that the highly-requested competitve multiplayer experience, which existed in Halo 2 and Halo 3, will return as well.
Again; I could be wrong. I could be right. Either way, what are your thoughts on this topic?
Quick Update
I didn’t mean to express my thoughts as if I believed that the subtitle only exists to re-introduce one single map.
I just figured that 343 Industries might take some coincidental approch to re-introduce an old map IF they choose to do so regardless of the true meaning behind the subtitle.
That’s a nigh impossible conjecture. Games aren’t named after multiplayer maps. “Guardians” would have something to do with the Halo canon.

In other words, I think you’re stretching. A lot.
So if it were called Halo 5 Harvest, would you have thought that the map harvest from Halo 4 would be in it ? 
I also doubt it, OP… but I still deeply hope Halo returns to the fair, competitive nature of the original trilogy.
The Guardians as in “you were killed by the Guardians” are the big things that come out of the ground in last year’s video.

Umm what ?

Uhm… okay…
I’m pretty sure it just referring to Chief and the ONI Spartan.

Those are what we call either Seekers or Sphinxes.
IDK if my thread was moved into here but the top right of the box art does look like guardian.
How do you not see the elbow from sniper tower to green?
It does show a bridge there so i dont know how someone cant see that. lol
Halo 5 Guardian map image
Also if you cant see it that well then tilt your screen to darken the image or darken the image yourself.

I definitely can see how one would think that this is Guardian. We’ll see if this is truely the case in due time.
Agreed with what everyone else has said so far. Its WAY TOO SOON to make any theories on this game based off a title.
