The original Halo Wars holds a special place in the hearts of Halo Nation as the most successful real-time strategy game in console history, with fans still clocking more than one million hours on Xbox Live each month via Xbox 360 and backward compatibility on Xbox One. We were introduced to Captain Cutter and the crew of the UNSC Spirit of Fire, fought the battles of humanity’s first encounters against the Covenant, and commanded armies en masse. Halo Wars proved that real-time strategy could be done successfully on console. Our goal with Halo Wars 2 is to take everything you loved about the first game, and bring it to the next level with the perfect partner in Creative Assembly – legends in the RTS genre. We also heard loud and clear that you wanted to play on PC.

Today, at E3, we announced that Halo Wars 2 is coming to Windows 10 PC and Xbox One on February 21, 2017. As many of you may remember from gamescom 2015, we originally announced fall 2016 as our targeted launch window. Development on Halo Wars 2 remains on track to be finished this year, but we made the decision to move the game to next spring, in order to give it room to breathe. We want fans to have a clear window to enjoy a game that we feel incredibly excited about! Also, with all the great games coming to Xbox One and Windows 10 this fall, gamers will have plenty to keep them busy, and they will have Halo Wars 2 to look forward to in early 2017.
