Amazing storyline, great cast of characters, improved a lot of mechanics from the first title, easier to handle even for newcomers, AND THANK GOD WE GOT THE CLASSIC CHARACTER DESIGN BACK!

Sou meio suspeito pra falar de RTS pq n sei oq faz um bom(n jogo mt RTS) mas no coop ele é mt divertido e isso já me ganhou

Halo Wars 2 is a serviceable console FPS that really doesn't do anything that special or different. The gameplay is a bit on the simple side, but the real draw of the game is it advancement of the Halo storyline, namely as the setup for Halo Infinite.

The game itself has ample modes and different armies, but the RTS gameplay itself is not that compelling or novel. It feels very dumbed down in a way that invokes the early days of console RTS games.

I enjoyed my time with the game, but that's almost exclusively due to the outstanding cutscenes that provide a bulk of the story in the game.

If you are looking for a deep and engaging console RTS, you would be better served looking elsewhere.

Chegando perto do lançamento de Halo Infinite, finalmente consigo fechar todo o universo Halo, passando pelos jogos, filmes, livros e quadrinhos.
Halo Wars 2 é incrível, tem as melhores cutscenes da saga junto com a remasterização do segundo jogo da franquia e o enredo é o que deveria ter sido a farofada que foi Halo 5. Os Banidos são ótimos, já conhecia o Atriox das Hqs, mas ele é imponente demais aqui e se torna uma pedra no sapato gigante pra UNSC/Spirit of Fire.
Achei as mecânicas melhores que o primeiro, como deveriam ser, mas não tem uma diferença tão abismal em gameplay para o primeiro jogo.
Os defeitos gritantes que esse jogo possui não estão relacionado a ele em si, mas a maneira como a 343 lidou com ele no PC: o jogo só funciona em uma Build específica do Windows, que já foi descontinuada a muito tempo, ou seja, quem tem ele no gamepass não vai conseguir jogar, nem mesmo por pirat4ria ou outros métodos que não seja por nuvem.
Aliás, jogar esse jogo no xCloud foi um PARTO, de meia em meia hora o jogo desconectava ou crashava, e pra piorar, o salvamento automático é muito ruim e perder o progresso de uma hora ou mais é absurdamente frustrante, além do jogo não contar com as DLCs.
Se não for jogar, ao menos veja as cutscenes no Youtube, é incrível o tom cinematográfico que eles conseguiram atingir aqui.

A big improvement over the original in almost every way and the campaign is about the right length (albeit still short).

The objectives are varied but not as unique as the first game. I also found myself waiting at my base quite often before making a move but that might be how these games work.


they went to war, but with monkeys.

grinded all day after school when it came out

Increible historia, un balance decente, la verdad no creo que sea el mejor juego de estrategia en tiempo real pero es un producto muy solido y el cual puedes entender aunque no hayas jugado a halo wars

My 3rd favorite RTS game that's all you need to know

I loved this game. Especially because it's the first time the flood showed up in a decade

I absolutely love that they continued the story of the Spirt of Fire without retconning anything. Lots of cool lore stuff for a Halo head like myself.

Wishing they'd make another game.

What an incredible upgrade from Halo Wars 1. Halo Wars 1 was a niche foray into a genre that isn't played by many, so you didn't expect or even need it to be amazing by any means. It was solid, and that's what mattered.

Halo Wars 2 on the other hand? Excellent. And honestly, it's one of the better Halo titles if you can stand the RTS genre. I actually really have a soft spot for these characters - Professor Anders, Spartan Jerome, and etc. Not only is the gameplay of Halo Wars vastly improved over its predecessor, the game now also firmly cements itself in the timeline of Halo by introducing the Banished for the first time prior to Halo: Infinite. Units are satisfying to use, and having more voice diversity gives the game more personality and pop.

If you like Halo and/or Strategy, give it a shot sometime. It's a solid starter RTS too to get you in the genre, but I will warn that some later missions get fairly difficult.

Score: 88

best cutscenes in the whole series..

the main campaign is.... fine
the banished one however, hold a candle to Starcraft 2, at least with creative mission design. For that alone, it's worth it.

that one cutscene where the carrier was split in half man that was the best shit ever

Uma evolução do primeiro game, mas apenas isso. Continua bem divertido e simples de jogar. Recomendo para quem quer expandir expandir a lore da saga e para quem gostou do primeiro Halo Wars

İlk oyunun baya sonrasında geçiyor. Serina ölmüş ve siqtiğimin Aitriox'unu kovalıyoz isabel gelio gidio edio zart zurt. RTS sevemeyen ben bile bu oyuna bayılıyorum. Müzikleri ilk oyundan kötü ve MP rezalet.

great game with a great story, and the introduction to the banished. only downside is the cliffhanger ending which will probably never be picked up on

Looks pretty, and maybe more balanced? With a solid story, and cool new vehicles. But like...Idk, I am still MADLY salty that the deceived me on what population increases actually met. In reality, the armies were hardly at all larger. That was honestly one of the few improvements I was genuinely looking forward to so. L.

Not my style of game but i see the potential. Best halo story since 4

The campaign missions aren't as interesting as the first one, but they did challenge me a bit more which I enjoyed.

A step up form the the first game, this one was a bit more challenging but I enjoyed it. The cutscenes in the campaign were pretty cool and story was good. I also had fun on the multiplayer side of things and the extra characters were nice to have

it’s like if they made halo but age of empires 2


I actually liked the first one better despite being a way simpler game and needing QOL fixes this game brought. The Banished was a cool new faction and Atriox was a compelling character, but the story kind of just ends with a sputter because they want to keep content for books, comics and other Halo games.

Vast improvement over the first Halo Wars, really cool art style, lore & gameplay.

Really enjoyed this one, probably the best console friendly version of an RTS to date.

FUCK THIS GAME I HATE IT SO MUCH ADJFKHSDLKFHKSJDFHKSJDHFKJSDHFKSDJFGVIHSDOLUFHJKSDLUFHDFOUJDFISHDBFJULSKDHVJFOUIPSDBOUIFSDJF
