Pretty much says it all. Bootcamp was the internal project name. No new real PC Halo for us. Should have known.....

Re: Bootcamp --> Halo: Spartan Assault




Halo: Spartan Assault--the first official Halo game on PC in eons--shipped without any support for Xbox 360 controllers. It was an especially odd decision, given that the game was a twin-stick shooter. That glaring oversight is being addressed in a new title update coming August 29th.

Dubbed "Operation Hydra," the free update not only adds support for wired Xbox 360 controllers, but it also adds five new missions to the Windows 8 game.

"Rejoin Spartan Sarah Palmer as you intercept a haunting alien signal after the destruction of planet Draetheus V, and follow the signal to the core of the planet's moon where you'll discover its terrifying source. Fight with Palmer and embark on a series of new missions and new environments as you try to unravel a mystery that hits surprisingly close to home," Microsoft's official PR reads.

The update also does away with the pesky microtransactions of the original game. Now, you'll be able to buy power weapons with in-game XP, if you so wish.

If you're curious about this Halo spin-off game, but don't want to drop money on the Windows Store quite yet, a free demo will also be available on August 30th.

Halo: Spartan Assault will be released for the Xbox One on December 24th, 2013 for $14.99 via digital download. Halo: Spartan Assault for Xbox One and Xbox 360 features over 30 missions, the all-new online Co-op mode, and the Operation Hydra expansion pack.

Fans that have purchased Halo: Spartan Assault for Windows 8 or Windows Phone 8 prior to December 15, 2013, will be eligible to purchase the Xbox One version of the game at the discounted price of $4.99.

Halo: Spartan Assault for Xbox 360 will be available in January 2014.



Pro-Tip: The price of the PC (Windows 8) version has been dropped to somewhere around $4.50. If you do about 22 days of Bing searches (around 15-16 each day) you can take $3 off of that price.
