XBOX 360 Halo Wars

Product detailed description

Xbox 360 Halo Wars is a real-time strategy game (RTS) developed by Ensemble Studios and released by Microsoft for the Xbox 360 in 2009. It is a significant departure from the traditional first-person shooter games that the Halo series is known for, but it keeps within the Halo universe and maintains some of the key elements of the series.

The game is set in the year 2531, 21 years before the events of Halo: Combat Evolved, and tells the story of the crew of the UNSC ship Spirit of Fire in their conflict with the alien alliance known as the Covenant. Players can control the UNSC forces in a series of missions where the goal is usually to defeat the hostile Kovenant forces.

Halo Wars was designed to be accessible to players who are new to the RTS genre, while offering enough depth for experienced players. Players gather resources, build bases, craft units, and then wield them in battle against enemies. The game also includes several special abilities that players can utilize throughout the game.

The game also offers a multiplayer mode where two to six players can play against each other or cooperate in different scenarios. Players can play as UNSC or Covenant, and each side offers unique units and tactics.
