They have missed pretty much everything and the game is unfolding through their eyes, so I always say if you've always been curious about Halo but too scared to jump in because you feel like you'd miss so much story, this is really the story to jump in on because it is entirely self-contained and we've created some really fantastic new characters as well, and of course some nice nods for people who are familiar with the fiction. We assume you haven't played Halo Wars and you've never played a Halo game before, and you can see we've set the game around that, with the crew of Spirit of Fire set asleep for twenty-eight years. What's great about it is that it assumes no knowledge of the extended fiction or Halo games whatsoever. Halo Wars 2 has a really self-contained story. They talked about Halo Wars 2, obviously, beginning with how it's a great way to jump in the franchise due to the self-contained story.

343 Industries' Dan Ayoub (Studio Head of External Development) and Creative Assembly's David Nicholson (Executive Producer) were recently featured in a video interview with Windows Central.
