It looks like Halo Wars will be dropping at retail next February, along with a Limited Edition that contains all kinds of fancy goodies.
Microsoft Games Studios and Ensemble revealed today that the Limited Edition will retail for $79.99 and will contain:
- Three New “Halo 3” Multiplayer Maps – Be one of the first to experience the Mythic Map Pack from Bungie which includes three new maps, “Assembly,” “Orbital” and “Sandbox”
- Halo Wars: Genesis – a beautiful graphic novel by Phil Noto, Graeme Devine and Eric Nylund chronicling the first military campaign against the Covenant. The novel centers around the Sprit of Fire on a mission to discover why the Covenant are so interested in the world of Harvest
- Unique In-game Vehicle – “Honor Guard” Wraith
- Six Leader Cards – Leaders possess elite skills which can turn the tides of battle
- Spirit of Fire Patch – Start the journey as an official Spirit of Fire crew member
Additionally, pre-ordering Halo Wars at select retailers will get you a download code to get an in-game Warthog vehicle with — wait for it — flame decals. No word on whether or not they’ll also be offering up Warthog whistle tips or rims.
