On September 8, 2016, the Windows 10 PC store saw the release of the app ''[[Halo 5: Forge]]'', a free download containing the full ''Halo 5: Guardians'' Forge experience for PC players.

In addition to functioning as map editor, Forge used to also a gameplay space. Up to eight players can be on a given map at a time, shifting back and forth between their chosen multiplayer model (''Player Mode'') and the ''Edit Mode'' model (a [[Monitor]]). A variety of Forge-specific settings can be altered by the party leader while in the Forge Lobby. As an example, players in Edit Mode can be granted more (or less) health and shielding as well as varying levels of Active Camouflage — editors can even be granted near or total invulnerability. There is also a setting that, if enabled, prevents all but the party leader from entering Edit Mode. Players can play actual games in Forge, experiment with Forge's features, kill each other, play diverse and varying 'honor rules' games, and do other things that aren't accepted in regular multiplayer.
