'''Forge''' is a gamemode featured in the multiplayer component of ''[[Halo 2: Anniversary]]''. The iteration of Forge in ''Halo 2: Anniversary'', like the rest of the multiplayer component, is based on that of ''[[Halo 4]]'' and as a result carries many similarities to that featured in ''Halo 4''. | '''Forge''' is a gamemode featured in the multiplayer component of ''[[Halo 2: Anniversary]]''.

*Objects have been updated to support the gear available in ''[[Halo 2]]''. This means that features such as [[Promethean]] weaponry, [[Armor abilities]] and some vehicles have been taken away but new weapons and vehicles such as the [[Sentinel beam]], [[Hog]], "infected" red [[Type-1 energy sword|energy sword]] and Heretic [[Type-26 Banshee|Banshee]] are available to use. Some weapons and equipment not in the original ''Halo 2'' such as the [[MA5D assault rifle|assault rifle]], [[M274R Mongoose#M274-M Gungoose variant|Gungoose]], [[AV-14 Hornet|Hornet]] and [[M7S SMG|suppressed SMG]]. Players can also place ammunition boxes for the sniper rifle and rocket launcher. | *Objects have been updated to support the gear available in ''[[Halo 2]]''.

*Although most objects once again retain similar designs to the ones featured in ''[[Halo: Reach]]'', the items have once again undergone a visual change. Where in ''Reach'' they resembled [[Forerunner]] structures and in ''Halo 4'' they resembled UNSC bases, they now have a neutral stone and metal look, somewhat similar to the ruins found on [[Installation 05]]. | *Although most objects once again retain similar designs to the ones featured in ''[[Halo: Reach]]'', the items have once again undergone a visual change.

*[[Awash]] - The only map to feature any kind of terrain, this map is set in the middle of a shallow ocean similar in appearance to that of [[Forge Island]]. The ocean can be walked in without dying, but the map features no other terrain. | *[[Awash]] - The only map to feature any kind of terrain, this map is set in the middle of a shallow ocean similar in appearance to that of [[Forge Island]].
