Halo 5: Forge is Free on Windows

…If you have a Windows 10.

What is Halo 5: Forge? It is a great tool for users to create maps, minigames, worlds and game modes. Here is a quick example:

Like what you see? It is more than that. Okay, it is not a free Halo 5; but it allows you to play the maps you’ve created with your friends. And you can search for other players’ content online. To sum up, it basically has multiplayer.

The Halo 5: Forge is free for a couple months now on Windows Store, and in case you’ve missed it, you can get it — with the “Bundle” — from here: click me tiger. The Bundle contains an app called “Halo” in which you can get news, social content, updates, and such. Here be the detailed features of Forge, quoted directly:

  • Free download of the most robust and powerful level editor in Halo history.
  • Share across Windows 10 and Xbox One. User-generated content built on Windows 10 using Halo 5: Forge or on Xbox One using Halo 5: Guardians is shared across both platforms, letting Windows and console players experience the best of both!
  • Play any Forge content created using Halo 5: Forge or Halo 5: Guardians, including original maps and modes originally released by 343 Industries, with up to 16 players via custom matches.
  • Optimized for PC, including mouse/keyboard in both edit mode and play modes, support for up to 4K resolution for visually stunning textures, and enhanced controls.

And here be the system requirements:

Keep in mind that both Forge and Halo app needs Windows 10 Anniversary (v.1607) OS to work. So, go clog some user-made toilets, everyone! Me? Nah, I don’t have a Win 10 yet. I don’t like operating systems in which I cannot play Fallout: New Vegas. Cheers!
