Description:

A new 2 mission campaign featuring a lot of cut and custom made content.

About The Mod

Mercury Rising is a custom campaign using a variety of cut and custom assets all of which have been edited to some extent to work properly. The mod is fairly open and you can take different routes to reach your destination which will give you a different experience every time you play.

Co-op

The mod supports co-op up to 4 players. Use the alpha ring mod to play on split-screen. Each player has a slightly different character model and all players appear during cutscenes.

Equipment

There are 2 new grenade types:

  • Bubble Shield – Provides cover for 10 seconds
  • Health Regeneration – Restores player’s health and shields over time
Multiplayer

There are currently 2 multiplayer maps featured in the mod. If there is a demand I may add more.

Soundtrack

The mod features a unique soundtrack made by cheechas. He just released his debut EP, go and take a listen!

Skulls

Catch and Sputnik skulls are disabled because they break some things in this mod.

Stuck on loading screen

If you get stuck on loading screen you need to install Halo CE multiplayer.
