Halo: Spartan Strike, a follow-up to Halo: Spartan Assault, will launch for Windows desktops, tablets and phones on December 14, 343 Industries has announced via IGN.

Developed by Vanguard Games, the top-down, twin-stick shooter is set during events of Halo 2 and promises a raft of improvements over the first game, including better controls.

The game will cost $5.99 on Windows platforms, with one purchase working on all platforms. For this you’ll get 30 missions, 25 weekly challenges, leaderboards and rewards in Halo: The Master Chief Collection.

There’s no word on the game being released for Xbox One or 360.
