We've seen some incredible creations come out of Halo Infinite's Forge Mode over the last year, thanks to the talented community. One such trio of players has used their time to recreate the entire Assault on the Control Room level from Halo: Combat Evolved.

Even before Halo Infinite's Forge mode was released in 2022, players were creating some spectacular levels in a leftover preview version of the mode, with creations ranging from Stranger Things' Upside Down to Hideo Kojima's PT. It's now been available to all players for just over a year and the talented community continues to prove its creativity when given the tools to do it.

Designed by Reddit user nicko2407, with help from Used-Bit 8972 and xXBarthXx, the Assault on the Control Room level built using Halo Infinite's Forge mode is almost identical to the original level found in Halo: Combat Evolved (or The Master Chief Collection). Within it, you'll find a selection of vehicles and weapons, including "custom-created ARs and Magnums," and, as the cherry on top, the ability to play it with up to three other players in co-op.

If you fancy diving into this impressive recreation, you can find Assault on the Control Room Part 1 and Part 2 on Halo Waypoint, along with the Halo: CE Campaign difficulties: Easy, Normal, Heroic, and Legendary. To access them on Xbox, you can search for them under the Custom Games tab or click through the links and log into Halo Waypoint with your Xbox account, and then bookmark both parts and the difficulties. From there, boot up Halo Infinite and you'll find them waiting for you under the Custom Games tab.

Will you be hopping in for some co-op madness on this level? Let us know down in the comments, Spartans!
