In addition, as they have already shown with the previous iterations that have been landing on computers, it will have all kinds of graphic adjustments and will be optimized for run at peak performance on current machines. In other words, it will be compatible with 4K, it will have FOV adjustments, and it will be played with full fluidity.
There is another important fact that we should not forget, and that is that Halo 2 comes to PC as part of the Master Chief Collection, like Reach and Combat Evolved. In other words, what we do is buy the entire pack and then we receive the games as they come out. If you already had the MCC for acquiring one of the other two, then this Halo 2 it will simply be added for free to the ones you already have.
It will be available on Steam, but remember that it will also be added to Xbox Game Pass PC, as always. Anyone can enjoy again one of the most mythical installments of this saga in its best version.
