As Halo Infinite continues to release in delayed chunks, players have discovered a way to access an unfinished version of Forge(opens in new tab) mode in the latest co-op campaign test flight. Some players have apparently had access to Forge tools for weeks and one in particular is already making some really impressive stuff.
May I introduce you to: the Silent Hills P.T. demo's iconic hallway, created by Forge-er and cosplayer Death Templar(opens in new tab).
I'm immediately impressed by how well Templar has captured the mood of P.T. inside Halo's engine. I think it's how the harsh white lights bake over the blank white drywall that sells it for me.

Halo 5 kicked things up a notch with sophisticated logic tools. Now, it's apparently not that hard to delve outside Halo's aesthetic entirely and make a horror house with custom lighting, framed pictures, and sound effects. Forge has certainly grown up.
Death Templar plans to keep working on the P.T. recreation as long as the Forge build is available. «My ultimate goal is to make PT so well in Forge one day, it prompts a cease and desist from Konami,» Templar tweeted(opens in new tab).

As I explained last month, you can combine weapons with scripts in Halo Infinite Forge to create custom weapons.
