Halo 4 Forge Mode Revealed By Trailer

343 Industries will be including a Forge Mode with Halo 4 to let players design maps. A new trailer details some of the enhancements that were added to the usual Forge Mode offering.

The new Forge Mode has been updated to make map creation more convenient. Objects can now be duplicated. Items can be deleted in groups as well, with a "Delete Everything" item allowing you to easily start over. Many of the objects in Forge mode are "magnetic" in certain areas to make it easier for players to snap pieces together and form more elaborate structures.

Halo 4's Forge also lets players add a few curve balls to their map. Specific areas of the map can be designated for low or reverse gravity. You can also create zones where the players' run speed, jumping height, and other abilities are altered.

343 previously announced that they tapped Certain Affinity to develop this game's Forge Mode. CA is responsible for Halo 2 and Halo: Reach map packs, as well as the multiplayer for Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary.
