Game Description

Halo 2 is a 2004 first-person shooter game for the Xbox console developed by Bungie and published by Microsoft Game Studios. Halo 2 is the sequel to 2001’s critically acclaimed Halo: Combat Evolved and the second installment in the Halo franchise. The game includes new weapons, enemies, and vehicles, as well as online multiplayer through Microsoft’s Xbox Live service. In Halo 2’s story mode, the player takes on the roles of the human Master Chief and, on occasion, an extraterrestrial known as the Arbiter in a conflict between the United Nations Space Command, the genocidal Covenant, and the parasitic Flood in the 26th century.
Following the success of Halo: Combat Evolved, a sequel was expected and eagerly awaited. Bungie found inspiration in plot points and gameplay elements from their first game, such as online multiplayer. A troubling development process and time constraints forced the game’s scope to be reduced, including the complete removal of a more ambitious multiplayer mode and necessitated a cliffhanger ending to the game’s campaign mode. An early alternate reality game called “I Love Bees” that involved players solving real-world puzzles was included in Halo 2’s marketing. Bungie continued to support the game after its initial release with new multiplayer maps and updates to address cheating and glitches. In September 2007, a sequel, Halo 3, was released.
Halo 2 was a commercial and critical success, and it is widely regarded as one of the best video games of all time. The game quickly became the most popular title on Xbox Live, a position it held until Gears of War for the Xbox 360 was released nearly two years later. With over 8 million copies sold worldwide, Halo 2 is the best-selling first-generation Xbox game. The game received critical acclaim, with the multiplayer receiving praise; however, the campaign and its cliffhanger ending were controversial. The game’s online component was extremely influential, and many features, such as matchmaking, lobbies, and clans, became standard in future games and online services. The marketing for Halo 2 heralded the beginnings of video games as blockbuster media. The game was ported to Windows Vista in 2007, and a high-definition remake was released as part of Halo: The Master Chief Collection in 2014.
