Halo Wars 2 Review

By Rishi Alwani (Feb 16, 2017)
  • Good
  • Easy to pick up and play
  • Nuances are well-explained
  • Entertaining plot with depth if needed
  • Bad
  • Minor frame-rate drops
  • Not for those looking for slower-paced strategy
  • Visually pedestrian

Halo Wars 2 may be a sequel to 2009's Halo Wars, but for all practical purposes it feels like a real-time strategy game in the tone of the first-person shooter that started it all — Halo: Combat Evolved.
