Seller's Description

Specific description (Xbox 360 version, no DLC): Set in the year 2531, approximately 21 years before the events of Halo: Combat Evolved, the story follows the crew of the UNSC warship Spirit of Fire as they investigate unusual Covenant activity on the human colony world of Harvest. Led by Captain James Cutter, Professor Ellen Anders, and Sergeant John Forge, the crew uncovers an ancient Forerunner installation and must stop the Covenant from exploiting its power. Unlike the main Halo games, Halo Wars is played from an overhead perspective and focuses on strategic battlefield management rather than first-person combat. Players gather resources, construct bases, research upgrades, train infantry and vehicles, and command armies across large battlefields. The game was specifically designed for console controls, featuring streamlined resource management and an interface optimized for the Xbox 360 controller. The base game includes a full single-player campaign consisting of 15 missions, along with skirmish and multiplayer modes supporting both online and local play through Xbox Live and system link. Players can command UNSC or Covenant forces, each featuring unique units, structures, and special abilities. The original Xbox 360 release includes all standard maps and leaders available at launch, excluding any post-release downloadable content. Notable units include iconic Halo vehicles such as Warthogs, Scorpions, Hornets, and Spartans for the UNSC, as well as Ghosts, Wraiths, Banshees, and Scarabs for the Covenant. The game is also known for its cinematic presentation, featuring high-quality pre-rendered cutscenes produced by Blur Studio.
