New Halo Board Game To Be Released
Jan. 28 2009, Published 12:18 p.m. ET
Since its release in 2001, Halo has been one of the most popular game series in videogame history, a first-person shooter set in the 26th century. And it's about to go retro!
USAopoly has announced that it is merging the Halo world with a classic board game to create a new board game: 'Risk: Halo Wars'.
The board game will feature familiar elements from the Halo world (the ruling UNSC, the enemy Covenant, and the alien Flood), 42 territories with 6 sectors, and 250 plastic figures that represent the 3 teams.
The game will be released in July, 4 months after the Xbox360 version of the new Halo Wars hits the market. The price: $39.99, a bargain considering you get the chance to rule the world.
