Players expand the possibilities in Halo 5: Guardians yet again via the Forge tools, treading on Harry Potter territory with a map called Quidditch Arena.
This masterpiece of a battleground is one of the latest to make the headlines in the Halo universe, and the credit all goes to a user who goes by the name xXHugabearXx.
Essentially speaking, it's more or less a Grifball map that's just covered with Harry Potter wrapping paper, but nonetheless, it's a pretty sweet-looking arena that's a mixture of the wizarding and militaristic science fiction worlds.
As expected, the objective is to grab the ball and get it through one of the big hoops. The only differences are that there are no Quaffles or Bludgers. On top of that, there's also no sign of the coveted Snitch or a Seeker to keep tabs on it.
The biggest oddity would have to be that the players in the Quidditch match in this realm don't carry around a Nimbus 2000 or any other broomstick. Instead, they wield Gravity Hammers and Energy Swords, so it's definitely a lot more dangerous than the magical sport in the Harry Potter world.
In other words, Master Chief can now play in a Quidditch stadium, but it's a little out there because of the inherent limitations of the Forge. Perhaps the creator could improve it further in the future, or someone else could get inspired by Quidditch Arena and make an updated map of sorts based on it.
For those who want to put their skills to the test, the map is available on the Halo 5 profile of xXHugabearXx.

The Forge tools rolled out about three months ago as part of a massive December update, opening up an arguably infinite amount of playability and ways to enjoy Halo 5.
