Summary
SinceStarfield’s launch last year, players have been expanding upon Bethesda’s vision with mods of belovedsci-fi franchises such asStar Wars,Firefly,and more. With the release of Bethesda’s official Creation Kit earlier this month, these mods have only increased as creators can use the studio’s engine and create their own custom content with the hope that it will be more supported than doing it via less official means.

The “Halo Spartan Armor Collection” is a port of Bonepunk’sHaloarmor mod for PC - which can be found onNexus Mods- and was uploaded by Shadow_pryo toBethesda Creations, with Bonepunk giving permission for Shadow_pyro to bring it to Xbox.

Despite there beingrumors thatHalowill come to PlayStationat some point as part of Microsoft’s recent multiplatform push,Master Chief has long been one of the main mascots for Xbox, and theHalofranchise is synonymous with the console family, despite having ports to PC as well over the years.
Therefore, it should come as no surprise that the port of Bonepunk’sHaloarmor mod has very quickly garnered attention within the Xbox community. As of the time of writing, the “Halo Spartan Armor Collection” has been viewed 26,380 times, bookmarked 2,459 times, and downloaded 16,683 times from Bethesda Creations.
Alongside the well-received fan mods, Bethesda also intends to flesh out the game with elements added through the Creation menu but has been heavily criticized for the release of its “The Vulture” mission.The Vulturecosts 700 Creation Credits, which alone is surprising enough for one mission as it equates to $7, but this is even more controversial asthe cheapest Creation Credits bundle option is 500 credits for $4.99, forcing players to purchase the 1000 credit package at $9.99 if they want to purchasethe mission.Understandably, players have been extremely vocal about such a practice, which has resulted in the game receiving asurge of negative reviews on PC, with it currently sitting at a “Mostly Negative” recent score on Steam and “Mixed” overall.
