I don't know if these are the two maps being referenced, but there are two playable maps for the beta version of the game called Midship and Ivory Towers.
I won't go into detail on Ivory Towers just yet, but I can describe for you Midship. If they decide to keep this map in the game, you should expect a large interior map, similar to the size and feel of Derelict from the first game. The textures on the wall are reminiscent of the interior of the Covenant ships you traveled through in the original as well, a purple, organic color. Along the walls there are three stories of floors, traversable by passages and walkways and this is the only way up to the heighest point on the map. Within the arena like area you'll find structures (similar to Hang Em' High) and you'll find two bases on each side, both of them have a lift system that sends you up to the second floor of said base via a beam of light. Within this location is your flag area for CTF, and is the primary point of defense. At the very peak of the map, in the center, is this large, oval platform which hovers at where you would expect the third floor to be. You can get to it by the aforementioned passges and walkways on the perimeter of the map, and you can further reach a structure hanging from the ceiling.The structure contains a secret weapon and at the current default setting it contains something called a Brute Shot.
