Same song, slightly different verse. If you have a slight sense of déjà vu here, that’s because Death Island is another throwback to Halo: CE (for PC) that’s got roots in Silent Cartographer. Keep your wits about you, you never know where the enemy will be.

If you didn’t know just how formidable the power of Halo Infinite’s Forge is, this will give you just a glimpse of what’s possible. Jump in and be blinded by its majesty as you gaze upon this demo from your front row seat.

This map/mode answers everyone’s age old question… What if Halo were an explosive side-scroller? Grab your friends and get ready to have a rockin’ good time!


COMMUNITY CREATIONS

Forge is a very powerful tool, but it can also definitely be a bit overwhelming for those just looking to dip their toes in. (I am one of those that feels out of my depth with Forge!) If you want to learn the basics of scripting for Forge, let VidGamesPete give you a hand.


That wraps up this edition of Forge Features. Whether you decide to take a walk down memory lane, have a good ol' customs night with your friends, or give scripting a whirl, there's plenty to check out.

We'll see you next time!
