The Custom powerup is only available on Custom maps made in [[Forge]] and some MLG playlist maps. What it does is determined by a player when setting up a custom gametype. It can affect many player attributes, such as damage resistance, gravity, damage delivered, speed, etc., including multiple simultaneous effects. It can give players [[Active camouflage|Active Camouflage]] or [[Overshield]]s. It can make a player an "instant [[Juggernaut]]", or even negatively affect a player. By default, it increases the player's speed and jumping ability.
The custom powerup can be customised through the multiplayer lobby's "Game Options" menu. From the settings, the power-up can be configured to affect player attributes, such as damage resistance, gravity, damage delivered, speed, etc., including multiple simultaneous effects (such as having a combination of an overshield and an active camouflage). By default, it enhances player's melee attack by a threefold and speed by 50%.
