Nothing quite as good as Quake Rally, obviously, but I'd love to see some of this inventiveness on PC. Look, here's someone recreating the best bit from the best Star Wars film in Forge:Īnd here's Rio Olympics break-out hit sport Quidditch:

A " Halo sandbox creation suite", I would have called it if I'd written that blogpost. Alice tells me it's more like Garry's Mod though, allowing for custom game modes and the creation of scripted scenarios for Machinima and the like. The blog post that announced that Forge was coming to PC refers to the tools as a "level-creation experience".

And not just 'levels', whatever that might mean. If you're the kind of person who enjoys digging into architectural design and scripting, it looks like Forge will let you make hearty, complex levels though. This looks like a very different proposition to DOOM's Snapmap, which is my way of saying I will never manage to make more than a box with some guns in it. IGN have a first look at Forge on PC, as seen at PAX West. PCGamesN spotted a NeoGAF post from Frank O'Connor, the Halo franchise director, in which he confirms a "custom games browser" post-launch. The free release is coming to Windows 10 and contains Forge "along with a host of awesome new features, including mouse and keyboard support, 4k resolution display capability, a brand new content browser that makes showcasing and sharing your creations easier than ever before, and the ability play your creations with friends online". Developed by 343 Industries and SkyBox Labs, the port includes mouse and keyboard support, 4k resolution display capability, the ability to test and play with friends, the ability to publish custom maps and game modes to the Xbox One, and allows PC players to play custom matches with up to 16 players.Halo 5 might have skipped PC but the Forge creation tools arrive this week. Halo 5: Forge, also referred to as Forge – Halo 5: Guardians Edition, is a port of Halo 5: Guardians' Forge mode to Windows 10, that was released on September 8, 2016.
