343 Industries along with Vanguard Games are releasing Halo: Spartan Assault, 10 days after the original release date.
The game is a “new top-down action shooter that brings a “Halo” video game to touch-based devices for the first time in franchise history.”
Set between the events of “Halo 3” and “Halo 4,” “Halo: Spartan Assault” is a new chapter of the award-winning “Halo” universe that explores the first missions of the Spartan Ops program and dives deeper into the backstory of Human-Covenant wars. Play through the eyes of either Commander Sarah Palmer or Spartan Davis stationed aboard the UNSC Infinity as they fight never-before-seen battles against Covenant forces.
Graeme Boyd, Social Marketing Manager, Xbox has tweeted about the game release:
Halo: Spartan Assault releases for Windows 8 and Windows Phone devices today. Played it at E3 and it’s great.
