If you’ve been waiting for Halo to make it’s return to PC, this is probably a good time for you to get excited, but…not that excited.
Today Microsoft announced that Halo 5’s Forge mode will be making it’s way to PC via Windows 10. Forge is a game mode within Halo 5, which allows players to create their own maps as well as edit them, and now players will be able to do this from their PC. The Windows 10 version of Forge will allow players to use a keyboard and mouse, as well as the ability to utilize 4K resolution. Along with the ability to publish your created maps to the Xbox One, you will also be able to test them out on the PC! While this is will likely be somewhat limited, and single player only, it will be fairly interesting to be able to get a taste of what Halo 5 would be like on the PC.
The announcement stated “Today, we’re excited to announce that we’re bringing this same spirit of creation and collaboration to the PC later this year with Forge – Halo 5: Guardians Edition for Windows 10,” reads the announcement. “Best of all? It will be absolutely free. In addition to the evolution’s already present in the mode on Xbox One, Forge – Halo 5: Guardians Edition for Windows 10 will include some exciting new features designed specifically with PC users in mind.”
No official release date for Forge on Windows 10 has been announced as of yet, however something tells me that this is something Microsoft might release to the public during E3 2016. We’ll keep you updated as more information is revealed.
