'''''Halo Wars''''' is a [[Real-time Strategy]] computer and video game. Collaboratively designed by [[Ensemble Studios]] and [[Bungie Studios]], the game is set for release on the Xbox 360 [http://www.gamespot.com/xbox360/strategy/halowars/news.html?sid=6158816]. Announced during Microsoft's X06 media briefing on September 27, 2006, details of the game first appeared on 1UP.com.[http://www.1up.com/do/newsStory?cId=3154046] A pre-rendered[http://www.halowars.com/faqs.html] [[Halo Wars Announcement Trailer|trailer]] for the game was shown at X06. [http://www.joystiq.com/2006/09/27/x06-press-conference-liveblogging/] The trailer can be downloaded from the [http://halowars.com/trailer.html official website]. Alternatively, it can be viewed at [http://youtube.com/watch?v=9D8Nugm2vpo You Tube Trailer].
 
The ''Halo Wars'' official FAQ states that the game will take place prior to the events of ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]'', allowing the player to control the crew of the  ship ''[[UNSC Spirit of Fire]]'' in the first battles against the Covenant. Bungie Studios has reported that the game is already in playable form, stating that it is "going to be awesome".[http://www.bungie.net/News/TopStory.aspx?link=bungieatx06]
 
''Halo Wars'' was first hinted at in the art book that came with the collector's edition of Age of Empires 3. The last page of the art book showed images from five different Age of Empires games, including the three titles that had already been released. Two images represented unreleased games, including a hypothetical ''Age of Empires 4'' (depicting a World War 2 or Vietnam War-era soldier) and ''Age of Empires 5'', depicting a distinctly science-fiction character design. This may have been intended to represent [[Master Chief]] from the [[Halo]] universe.
 
==Confirmed Elements==
The following are known elements within the game that have been shown in concept art and pre-rendered trailers for Halo Wars.
 
'''UNSC'''
*Infantry
**UNSC [[Marines]]
**[[Spartan]] Group Omega
*Vehicles
**[[Scorpion Tank]]
**[[Warthog]]
**[[Pelican]]
**Unidentified UNSC dropship (possibly an [[Albatross]])
**Unidentified UNSC fighter (possibly a [[Skyhawk]] jumpjet)
 
'''Covenant'''
*Infantry
**Covenant [[Elite]] (with [[energy sword]]s)
**Covenant [[Hunter]]
**Covenant [[Grunt]]
*Vehicles
**[[Banshee]]
**[[Ghost]]
**[[Scarab]]
 
==Trivia==
*The sound in the trailer made first by the Elite is almost identical to the sound made by the Predator in ''Predator'', ''Predator 2'', and ''Alien Vs. Predator''.  
**This is also coupled with the part where all the Elites appear from camoflauge from in air. This is alot like a scene in ''Alien Vs. Predator'' where the Predators all appear from invisibility. This may fuel more of the rumors that the Elite were derived from the Predator, which has seemed to borrow the invisibility system, sounds, and their split jaw from it.
*The dropships that are seen landing have a strange resemblance to the landing pods in ''Starship Troopers''.
*The Elites seen on the trailer do not appear to have energy shields.
*One of the Spartans speaks in the trailer. His voice is ''not'' the same as the Master Chief's.
*The Elite in the middle of the 'Cannon Fodder' picture is holding dual plasma swords. That might be because you *MIGHT* be able to duel weald swords in halo 3, although [[Bungie]] denies this. [[Talk:Halo_Wars#Cannon_Fodder|Talk about it here.]]
*There appear to be mobile buildings that can lift off and land for the UNSC. This is similar to the buildings on [[Wikipedia:StarCraft|StarCraft]].
