"Halo Wars 2" review restriction has been finally lifted. The game seems to elicit a positive response from gamers with fairly solid ratings. Gamers' review suggests that the game performs decently on Xbox One but demonstrates dramatic improvements on PC.
The "Halo Wars 2" review embargo finally broke today. Although the numbers are not spectacular, gamers give a fairly solid mark which plays around an 8/10s average. According to Forbes, the game is a good console RTS.
