"Halo Wars 2" is only a couple of weeks away, and to keep the excitement going, Microsoft recently released its intensely made cinematic launch trailer. It not only gives players a sneak peek into what is going to unfold but also it give a glimpse of the latest big bad.
The latest cinematic launch trailer for "Halo Wars 2" sets up the story for the real-time strategy (RTS) sequel. We also get to see the evil Atriox and his company.
This baddie is a beast so bad that even the "whole damn Covenant couldn't contain him" even at the height of its power, reports PCGamer. If you are new to "Halo Wars 2," then the Covenant is an immense alliance of alien races that have withstood the test of time.
