Halo Wars 2 announced for Xbox One and Windows 10

Head of 343 Industries, Bonnie Ross took to Microsoft's Gamescom stage to close up the conference with a special announcement for Xbox One and Windows 10. 343 industries has teamed up with Creative Assembly to bring us Halo Wars 2 this Fall 2016 on both the Xbox One and Windows 10.

Halo Wars 2 is the sequel to Halo Wars, the real-time strategy game that released in 2009 on the Xbox 360. The game took place 21 years before the events of Halo: Combat Evolved, making it somewhat of a prequel to the series. The game received generally positive reviews, if 343 Industries and Creative Assembly can pull off the sequel… It would be pretty nice for RTS fans.

Let's be honest though, this isn't the Halo game I wanted on my PC, nor is it a live-action series to follow up to Halo 4's Forward Unto Dawn.

This wasn't the only Halo reveal from Gamescom, we also got a look at Arena multiplayer gameplay and a Halo 5: Guardians 1TB Limited Edition Xbox One.
