A new Halo game has just been revealed, Halo: Spartan Strike, it is a top down twin stick shooter just like Halo: Spartan Assault and it is set during the events of Halo 2. Image from IGN gameplay video The game has just been revealed by IGN who sat down with 343 Industries producer Fred LaPorte to show nearly ten minutes of gameplay and commentary. The game is set to during the events of Halo 2 and after and is said to have a lot of improvements over Halo: Spartan Assault. Achievements, rewards, challenges and leaderboards are all going to be things players can work towards when they play it.

According to Gamespot, Microsoft posted a slew of Screenshots & Game Art from Halo: Spartan Strike today: following the initial Spartan Strike announcement a day or so ago. Adam91 made the post concerning the initial announcement yesterday: http://343i.org/2fx Gamespot says that Microsoft "boasts" that Spartan Strike will feature "unparalleled visuals" for a mobile game. Concerning the screenshots and images it would seem that claim could be true: Spartan Strike Game Art, and Screenshots: On a side note, the original gameplay video had 343 producer Fred LaPorte giving a basic walkthrough of the game with Ryan McCaffrey of IGN. LaPorte went on to give a brief synopsis of the game. Today, Microsoft also chimed in to give some details: [spoilerS AHEAD] Halo: Spartan Strike releases on December 12, 2014, at the price of $6, for Windows platforms: like desktop, Surface tablets, and Windows Phones. The game is also coming to Steam, and supports USB Xbox controllers. Spartan Strike players can also unlock achievements in-game to earn an exclusive emblem, nameplate, and avatar for Halo: The Master Chief Collection: similar to how Spartan Assault had ties with Halo 4. Unlike Spartan Assault, Spartan Strike WON'T have microtransactions, and everything in-game can be unlocked using in-game currency you earn. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Thoughts?

The new top down twin stick spin-off game in the Halo franchise, Halo: Spartan Strike's first trailer was released today! So with details now flooding in at the seams for Halo: Spartan Strike, the half prequel/half sequel to Halo: Spartan Assault (the pre-sequel hehe) we should've expected to get a trailer. Halo's official has it, showing off some gorgeous cutscenes, ground gameplay, and new features. A few different shots of the Prometheans are shown off, as well as Halo 2 era and post Halo 4 era gameplay on differing environments. Covenant seemed to get the short end of the stick in this trailer, as near nothing was shown on them. As well, the warthog and kestrel were both demoed, both new additions to the twin stick Halo games.
