Halo: Reach is coming to the PC later today and 343 Industries has confirmed that mods will work on the single-player campaign mode. According to the developers, Halo: Reach is coming with an Anticheat on the PC that players can disable while launching the game.
By disabling Anticheat, PC gamers will be able to play the single-player campaign, as well as some custom matches. Obviously, this will also be a work around for enabling/using mods.
As 343 Industries stated when a fan asked whether the game will support mods.
“We’re still working to improve this down the road, but for now you will have an option when you launch to bypass anticheat. This will allow you to play around with campaign and customs but not allow you to play any match made games. I highly suggest making a copy/backup of anything you modify so you’ll be able to switch back and forth easily.”
Halo: Reach releases later today. Microsoft has not sent us a review code, however, we’ve already purchased the game so we can share our first performance impressions of it.
Stay tuned for more!
