343 Industries’ Halo Wars 2, developed by The Creative Assembly (of Total War: Warhammer fame), is currently available for Xbox One and Windows 10. However, if you want to try the game out without buying it, then Microsoft has announced that the free demo is now available for Xbox One. The Windows 10 version will be available “soon”.
In the demo, players have access to one campaign mission “The Signal” along with Blitz Firefight mode, the new card-based multiplayer mode. This version only allows you to fight AI foes with a pre-built deck. You won’t be able to matchmake with other players.
Halo Wars 2 received fairly good reviews from critics but launched without the promised ranked multiplayer mode. 343 Industries has noted that more work was required for the same but you can expect it to arrive “soon”.
