We Finally Have 343 Statements About Halo Infinite Forge Mode Leaks

It’s been a month since the closed beta for Halo Infinite’s forge mode leaked, leaving it up to the community to download it and start creating all kinds of wonders. Besides being bad news for 343, it seems that the indirect marketing strategy worked, and now the whole community is waiting and clapping for it to finally be revealed. During this time, no developer had echoed it.

It does not seem to be a coincidence that these days two of the developers most committed to the project, one being the leader, have spoken out giving their impressions on the matter. The first to speak was Michael Schorr (Lord of the Forges

), responsible for the design of the forges; he comments that, beyond not being able to say much, he is so excited about all the cool stuff people have createdhoping to see more from the community.

The second, and of course, was Chris Howard, “pipeline designer”, who contributed as an external entity to the development of forge in Halo Infinite:

I’m not going to lie, watching all those leaked Forge videos exploring the maximum number of static objects you can place specifically they give me life. It was almost a year of my life to get my share of this effort. It was a crazy idea once and I’m still amazed what we achieved

Awesome forge creations in Halo Infinite amaze 343

Now that the devs have weighed in on what’s been done for a leaked game mode, it looks like they’re closer to announcing a official date

for its launch. Honestly, this doesn’t appear to be a simple leak, it may have been a strategy to test public approval of what is a vital feature for the Halo Infinite community.
