Sergant forge was seen as a dlc charcter in a screen shot from the halo wars 2 xbox live stream! I myself hope that this charcter is allowed to be free for everyone!

This has been known for awhile he supposedly will be given to everyone who plays the game in a certain window after launch.
Also to point out it has neither been confirmed or denied (to my knowledge) if he will be in the upcoming beta.
Forge RIP, I have to say I didn’t like the idea. I kind of feel a lot of respect for Forge. But well… I guess it will be nice to see him back. #Hero
At launch everyone will be able to use him for a ‘limited time’ but after that he will go to being a paid DLC. Unfortunatley the devs have said he “is just a leader in blitz”.
