You can join the discussion on Halo Wars: Definitive Edition becoming free to play this weekend on the OC3D Forums. It is likely that Halo Wars Definitive Editions will be available with a discount during the game's free trial period, with the game currently selling for £16.99 on Steam.

It is also possible for PC players to blitz through the game's entire campaign over this free period, which takes place several decades before the events of Halo: Combat Evolved. GameSpot has reported that Halo Wars: Definitive Edition will become available to play for free on Steam this weekend, starting on October 18th until October 21st, giving PC players the opportunity to try out the game. Later that year, on April 20th 2017, Halo Wars: Definitive Editions released on the Steam storefront, granting access to the game to PC gamers outside of Microsoft's gaming storefront, bringing the game to the masses. With plans to release Halo Wars 2 in 2017, Microsoft decided to bring the RTS series to PC, releasing the original Halo Wars on both PC and Xbox One as a Definitive Edition, boasting enhanced visuals and refined controls. Not only were they being denied yet another Halo game, but they were also being denied an RTS title, a game type that is typically best suited to keyboard/mouse controls.


The game concept is that it is getting started in the year 2531, 21 years prior to the Halo Combat which actually the war is between the Human and Covenant in the Outer Colonies. You will be able to lead large Halo armies into action-packed battles. Halo Wars is a real time strategy and enthralling game in the Halo Universe. Halo Wars: Definitive Edition brings new heroes to the battlefield and provides a unique perspective on the iconic war between the Covenant and UNSC – made famous by the Halo FPS games. Halo Wars: Definitive Edition is an enhanced version of the classic real-time strategy game, Halo Wars, updated to run natively on PCs.
