Forge/Halo 5: Guardians: Difference between revisions

{{Center|''Not to be confused with [[Halo 5: Forge]], a free standalone PC application.''}}

'''Forge''' is a gamemode featured in ''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]''. Unlike previous Forge modes, ''Halo 5'' did not ship with Forge on launch, with the mode instead being released as free downloadable content as part of the [[Cartographer's Gift]] update on December 16, [[2015]]. Unlike the Forge modes of the previous two entries - ''[[Halo 4]]'' and ''[[Halo 2: Anniversary]]'' - which were both based on the Forge 2.0 introduced in ''[[Halo: Reach]]'', the Forge present in ''Halo 5: Guardians'' has been rebuilt from the ground-up to more resemble a map creation kit than a simple editor. While Forge can be accessed through the ''Halo 5: Guardians'' game for [[Xbox One]], the mode is also playable on Windows 10 PCs due to the release of ''[[Halo 5: Forge]]'', a free standalone application for PC players to use to create and edit maps.

*''Halo: Reach'' specific objects such as the [[Blood Gulch]] bases are no longer available as preset options.

*No limit for individual object placement.

**''Overcast - a cloudy skyline with no visible sun.''

*[[Breakout Arena]] - a simulated arena used for the construction of levels used in the [[Breakout]] gametype.

**''Midday - a midday sky.''

**''Nighttime - a darkened map set at night.''

**''Stormy - a skybox with stormclouds gathering on the horizon.''

**''Meteor Shower - a night setting with meteors seen burning up in the atmosphere.''

**''Dust Storm - a dark sky and somewhat neutral lighting.''

**''Sunrise - an early morning skybox with a clearer sky.''

**''Twilight - this map's skybox resemble's that of [[Sandbox]], with the sun barely peeking over the horizon.''

*[[Depths]] - an underwater Forge canvas, added in the [[Monitor's Bounty]] update.
