A couple of leaked Halo Infinite Forge mode videos have our minds racing at the feature's wealth of possibilities.
Halo Infinite's much-anticipated Forge mode still doesn't have a release date. But recently leaked videos show off some seriously promising scripting elements. One shows a Call of Duty-style Zombies mode could be possible, while another showcases a device that turns your guns into… well, better guns (thanks, Wccftech(opens in new tab)).

A Zombies mode made in Forge would be absolutely perfect for Halo's iconic Flood enemies. Sadly, the zombie-like Flood don't make an appearance in Halo Infinite. But if the new Forge mode does support the placement of AI-controlled actors, we'd love to see Flood assets from Halo: The Master Chief Collection repurposed for Halo Infinite.
The second video shows off a working 'Pack-a-Punch'
