Halo Wars Hits 2m Downloads
That figure was reached in the space of one week since the demo was released, marking it as one of the most popular Xbox 360 demos yet.
Microsoft had also stated – in response to Thursday’s NPD results – that more people joined the Xbox Live service this January than in any other month, perhaps due to the systems huge boost in sales over the Christmas period. And though the firm was reluctant to provide exact retail figures, it added that Fallout 3s new DLC – called Operation Anchorage – was one of the most popular downloads in January.
Halo Wars is scheduled for release on February 27 for Europe. North Americans will have to wait an additional week, with the release set for March 3.
