About
After decades adrift and declared “lost with all hands,” the brave crew of the UNSC Spirit of Fire are mysteriously awoken above an ancient Forerunner haven known as the Ark. In Halo Wars 2, Captain Cutter and his crew will face one of humanity’s most formidable threats yet: The Banished – a fierce and powerful Brute faction led by a cunning and lethal warrior known as Atriox.
Halo Wars 2 delivers real-time strategy at the speed of Halo combat. Get ready to lead armies of Spartans and other Halo fighting forces like Warthogs, Scorpions and exciting new units in a brutal war against a terrifying new enemy on the biggest Halo battlefield yet.
Storyline
Set in 2559, decades after the crew of the human warship Spirit of Fire vanished into uncharted space, the ship and its cryo-sleeping crew awaken at the Ark, a colossal Forerunner installation capable of building the galaxy-threatening Halo rings. There they find a ruthless new enemy already entrenched: the Banished, a savage mercenary faction led by the cunning Brute warlord Atriox that rose from the ashes of the collapsed Covenant. Under Captain Cutter's command, the outnumbered and outdated UNSC forces must marshal their soldiers, Spartans, and war machines to wrest control of the Ark from the Banished and stop Atriox before he seizes its terrible power.
