The Complete Edition of the game that includes all the DLC content is normally $60, but right now, it's on sale on the Microsoft Store for $24.The real-time strategy genre has always been tough to adapt to a console, but the first Halo Wars found a way to scale back the experience and streamline it, along with a control scheme that worked fairly well. Halo Wars 2 is available on Xbox One and Windows 10 PCs. What do you think? Do you agree with me that Halo Wars 2 needs to come to Steam? Let me know. And considering the Banished have been near-universally loved by Halo Wars 2 fans on Xbox One and the Windows 10 Store, it's likely that newcomers on Steam will feel the same way. This means that fans on Steam who are waiting to play Halo Infinite could play Halo Wars 2 in order to get a taste of what the Banished are like and what can be expected from them when Halo Infinite finally releases. All signs currently point to the Banished being the main enemy in Halo Infinite as well, based on the title's official gameplay reveal. Halo Wars 2 acts as an origin story of sorts for the Banished faction, as in the campaign, you learn about where the Banished come from and what they're like as you battle against them.
Lastly, a Steam release of Halo Wars 2 will help build hype for Halo Infinite, the next mainline entry in the Halo franchise releasing in 2021 on Xbox Series X, Xbox One, and both the Windows 10 Store and Steam. How many of the RTS titles on Steam offer a fully fleshed out campaign with Blur Studio's cutscenes and top-notch visuals, a deep multiplayer that supports both competitive and casual play, and a mode like Terminus Firefight where players can test their mettle against cutthroat AI for hours on end? It will build hype for Halo Infinite Halo Wars 2, as a Microsoft first-party exclusive, sports a level of polish, gameplay diversity, and visual quality that RTS fans haven't been able to experience in a long time. This is a niche that Microsoft can capitalize on with a Halo Wars 2 release on a well-liked, highly-respected service like Steam. The opposite is true plenty of RTS fans exist, and many of them are looking for high-quality games to play that aren't Starcraft II. However, just because RTS games aren't as popular as they used to be doesn't mean that an audience doesn't still exist for them. RTS games have been declining in overall popularity on PC ever since shooters rose to their dominating position in the multiplayer market.
