The True Halo Experience, Seen From The Sky.

Halo Wars 2: Standard Edition is a real-time strategy game from Microsoft and an entry into the Halo franchise of alien-slaying, space-faring adventures. In Halo Wars 2, you assume the role of the same sort of commander who dispatches Master Chief, and battle against computer-controlled foes and other players.

Face A Grave Threat In A Mysterious Land

Halo Wars 2 integrates itself with Halo canon by taking place after Halo 5. The central setting is the Ark, a mysterious "promised land" that many different groups tried to reach. The player characters and their army face against a new kind of galaxy-spanning threat that seemingly comes from this storied place. On the graphics side, this adventure can be viewed in native 4K where applicable for truly awe-inspiring resolution, though it's also compatible with 1080p and down. For multiplayer, one can either co-op or battle head-to-head against other players, including players on different platforms.

A Game For Every Halo Player

Whether you've played the original Halo Wars, or enjoy the original first-person shooter titles, this game is worth trying. It blends Halo's signature setting, and gameplay that integrates bits and pieces of the Halo formula with a fast-paced real time strategy core.
