Halo Wars 2 is early 2017. Gamers have waited for a long time for the sequel to Halo Wars. Microsoft is making sure that the sequel will be creatively developed while giving importance on the story  and players thinking the right strategy to win the game.

How Halo Wars 2 Will Be A Game Changer? 

In Microsoft headquarters, Kevin Grace, 343 Industries narrative design director, and Jeremy Cook, art director of Halo, explained how they came up with Halo Wars 2. The company wants every Halo game to be interesting in order to make an impact on the players.

According to Game Spot, since Microsoft wants to make sure that Halo games will leave a mark to each player, the artists and creators behind Halo Wars 2 were determined to create the game very different. Grace said, "They close their eyes, and then this happens. They've missed everything that's in between, and catching them up on that passage of time is a big part of bringing them back into Halo."

Cook also wanted to coordinate with Grace to create a harmonious game that will make Halo Wars 2 remarkable. He said, "We look at the high level, and Creative Assembly chimes in to ask if can tweak things for gameplay. Then Blur chimes in asking about cinematics. There's definitely a lot of handing off the torch."

Grace and Cook wanted to focus on the cinematics of Halo Wars 2 because it plays an important role in the game. It will organize the flow of the game with dialogue and interaction of players with other characters.
