Halo Wars will never make the journey from console to PC, according to the game’s lead developer. We spoke to Ensemble’s Graeme Devine at a Microsoft press event last week, and enquired about the possibility of a port in the near future:
“Zero. Never. I’m going to go on the record and say never ever! Microsoft may go and announce it, but I’ll say never.”
Devine went on to stress that the forthcoming RTS has been designed with console gaming in mind, and that this where the game will stay.
“The whole point of the game was to do it with the controller, it was never to think of, ‘oh my gosh, in two years time let’s do it on PC.’ It was never ever that. Let’s put the effort into Halo Wars 2, rather than making Halo Wars work on PC. Halo Wars is a console game, and it was designed to work on a console. So let’s keep it on a console.”
Work on the title is largely finished, he added, with “pretty much everyone” at Ensemble now playing the game ahead of its release next year.
