All items, blocks and mobs in the ''Minecraft'' world have been retextured to match a ''Halo'' theme. ''Minecraft'' swords are now [[Type-1 energy sword|energy sword]]s, with a different blade color for each type of sword. Maps are now UNSC [[data pad]]s. Axes have been reskinned and are now [[Type-2 gravity hammer|gravity hammer]]s, with different colors based on axe-type. The ''Minecraft'' bow is now a [[Type-33 needler|needler]], with the arrows being retextured to look like the needler's [[Subanese crystal|ammunition]], and flint and steel is a [[frag grenade]]. Shields were retextured as [[Kig-Yar point defense gauntlet|Jackal shields]]. Beds are ''[[Halo 4]]'''s [[Mark VIII Cryogenic Suspension Chamber|rendition]] of the [[cryo chamber]] with ''Minecraft'' "Steve?" inside of it. Zombies are made to look like ''Halo 4'' [[Flood combat form]]s and creepers are [[Pod infector]]s. Ingots look like ''Halo'' [[armor abilities]] and dyes look like different colors of [[fusion coil]]s. Some food items are retextured to look like military ration packs. Leather armor is [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/K variant|Commando armor]], chainmail armor is [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/Raider|Raider armor]], iron armor is [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/S variant|Scout armor]], gold armor is [[Thel 'Vadam]]'s [[:File:Thel 2558.png|kaidon armor]], diamond armor is [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/Venator|Venator armor]] and netherite armor is [[OPDST armor (Mjolnir)|ODST armor]]. Equipping a pumpkin as a helmet will give a player a mask pattern that resembles the [[Heads-up display]] from the [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor|MJOLNIR armor]].

All six remade maps appear in the same ''Minecraft'' world. On the world in the mash-up, the player spawns near the [[Bumblebee]] escape pod surrounded by hallways that lead to the recreated ''Halo'' maps. A [[Spirit]] dropship appears hovering above the spawning location. [[Guardian (map)|Guardian]] is located in the only jungle biome in the world. Next to the Guardian is [[Sandtrap]]. The [[Forerunner]] structures on Sandtrap are constructed out of retextured sandstone. Although the crashed [[Type-52 Phantom|Phantom]] and [[D96-TCE Albatross|Albatross]] are included on Sandtrap, the [[M313 Elephant|Elephant]]s are not. On [[The Silent Cartographer]], the player is given boats to travel to the map. The map features [[M12 Warthog]]s and [[Pelican]]s. [[Valhalla]] also features Warthogs and the downed Pelican, but the surface is not as elevated as it is in the ''[[Halo 3]]'' map. To get to [[Blackout]], the player must traverse across a icy tundra, occasionally using boats. The Blackout map features all the rooms that ''Halo 3'''s Blackout does. [[Blood Gulch]] has Warthogs and [[Banshee]]s, along with the recreation of the map's caves and cliffs. Some of the maps feature chests containing items for the player.

In addition to the six maps, several isolated objects from the ''Halo'' series appear scattered for the player to find throughout the world. The Nether has the [[Ur-Didact|Didact]]'s [[Cryptum]] surrounded by a Nether fortress. Near [[Blood Gulch]], a [[Scarab]] is engaged in combat with a [[M510 Mammoth|Mammoth]], with several [[Type-32 Ghost]]s and Warthogs in between the two. Near [[Valhalla]], one of the Covenant Bases from [[Snowbound]] can be found. Several vehicles like Warthogs and Pelicans and Forerunner-style buildings are scattered around the map. The [[Halo Array|Halo installation]] appears as the world's skybox and the planet [[Threshold]] is the re-textured sun.

The Halo Mash-Up: Minecraft Evolved, also known as Minecraft: Halo Edition, and on some platforms as Master Chief Mash-Up, as well also being referred to as the Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition - Halo Mash-Up Pack, for the Xbox 360 edition of Minecraft is a mash-up pack created by 4J Studios, with the help of Microsoft Studios, 343 Industries and Mojang.[2] The texture set includes Halo-themed menus and user interface, craftable items, and thirty-one music tracks that originated from the Halo franchise. Additionally, the pack includes six Halo-themed maps and fifty-six characters from the Halo universe.[3][4] When Minecraft was released for the Xbox One, the mash-up pack was made able to transfer over for free.[5]

The Halo Mash-Up Pack was released for download on Xbox Live on May 28, 2014 for US$3.99.[4] A limited trial version of the mash-up pack is available for download for free. Due to Halo's partnership with Microsoft, for a long time the mash-up pack was not available for PlayStation editions of Minecraft.[5]

It also was made available on the Nintendo Switch.[6]

The Pack was eventually released on the Bedrock version of Minecraft, which made it available on PC, Mobile, Nintendo, and Playstation devices.

Overview[edit]

Launch[edit]

All items, blocks and mobs in the Minecraft world have been retextured to match a Halo theme. Minecraft swords are now energy swords, with a different blade color for each type of sword. Maps are now UNSC data pads. Axes have been reskinned and are now gravity hammers, with different colors based on axe-type. The Minecraft bow is now a needler, with the arrows being retextured to look like the needler's ammunition, and flint and steel is a frag grenade. Shields were retextured as Kig-Yar point defense gauntlets. Beds are Halo 4's rendition of the cryo chamber with Minecraft "Steve?" inside of it. Zombies are made to look like Halo 4 Flood combat forms and creepers are Pod infectors. Ingots look like Halo armor abilities and dyes look like different colors of fusion coils. Some food items are retextured to look like military ration packs. Leather armor is Commando armor, chainmail armor is Raider armor, iron armor is Scout armor, gold armor is Thel 'Vadam's kaidon armor, diamond armor is Venator armor and netherite armor is ODST armor. Equipping a pumpkin as a helmet will give a player a mask pattern that resembles the Heads-up display from the MJOLNIR armor.

All six remade maps appear in the same Minecraft world. On the world in the mash-up, the player spawns near the Bumblebee escape pod surrounded by hallways that lead to the recreated Halo maps. A Spirit dropship appears hovering above the spawning location. Guardian is located in the only jungle biome in the world. Next to the Guardian is Sandtrap. The Forerunner structures on Sandtrap are constructed out of retextured sandstone. Although the crashed Phantom and Albatross are included on Sandtrap, the Elephants are not. On The Silent Cartographer, the player is given boats to travel to the map. The map features M12 Warthogs and Pelicans. Valhalla also features Warthogs and the downed Pelican, but the surface is not as elevated as it is in the Halo 3 map. To get to Blackout, the player must traverse across an icy tundra, occasionally using boats. The Blackout map features all the rooms that Halo 3's Blackout does. Blood Gulch has Warthogs and Banshees, along with the recreation of the map's caves and cliffs. Some of the maps feature chests containing items for the player.

In addition to the six maps, several isolated objects from the Halo series appear scattered for the player to find throughout the world. The Nether has the Didact's Cryptum surrounded by a Nether fortress. Near Blood Gulch, a Scarab is engaged in combat with a Mammoth, with several Karo'etba-pattern Ghosts and Warthogs in between the two. Near Valhalla, one of the Covenant Bases from Snowbound can be found. Several vehicles like Warthogs and Pelicans and Forerunner-style buildings are scattered around the map. The Halo installation appears as the world's skybox and the planet Threshold is the re-textured sun.

Halo 5: Guardians Update[edit]

On the 23 October 2015, a free update to the mash-up pack was released that introduced new characters to the pack based on Halo 5: Guardians.[7]

Minecraft: Xbox One Edition Holiday/Favourites Pack[edit]

On November 24, 2015, Minecraft Xbox One Edition released the Minecraft: Xbox One Edition Holiday Pack (Also called the Minecraft: Xbox One Edition Favourites Pack in some regions), included in this pack was the Halo: Mash-up pack.[8] The disk version of this pack includes CU22, meaning it includes the Halo 5: Guardians update content.

Halo Infinite Update[edit]

On the 10 December 2021, a second free update to the mash-up pack was released that introduced new characters to the pack based on Halo Infinite and the Halo franchise's 20th anniversary.[9] Prior console editions never got this update.

Other

Bedrock Update[edit]

When Bedrock Edition was released, the map went through major modifications. Instead of players freely exploring the world, they engaged in a Campaign-style system where upon starting a new world, players completed certain tasks in each of the different Halo locations. Upon completing the task, players unlocked the next location, and after completing all six 'missions', were then able to enter the nether and destroy the Didact's Cryptum. However, by completing each mission, enemies became much more varied and difficult.

Missions
  • Blood Gulch - Capture the Blue Flag
  • Guardian - Find 8 Buttons
  • The Silent Cartographer - Power up the Power Core
  • Sandtrap - Turn on all Lights
  • Valhalla - Find 2 Key Cards and bring to crashed Pelican cave
  • Blackout - Use what you have learned
  • Didact's Cryptum - Destroy the Didact's Cryptum

Soundtrack[edit]

Music from a range of tracks from iconic Halo soundtracks can be heard while during gameplay. Like regular Minecraft, some of these track will only play during certain conditions, such as exploring the Nether and fighting mobs.

List of tracks:
