Wie ihr sehen könnt, ist die Liste für Halo Wars 2 ziemlich lang, und daher ist das Update auch ca. 9,9 GB groß! Wir können aber davon ausgehen, dass dort auch schon Spieldatein für den, in diesem Monat erscheinenden, neuen Anführer Morgan Kisano, eine Höllenbringerin, und auf Feuer spezialisierten Charakter, enthalten sind.
Die Radarveränderungen in der neuen Halo 5 Playlist sind auch gravierend, so wird man nur noch auf dem Radar angezeigt, wenn man eine Waffe abfeuert, die nicht schallgedämpft ist, und wenn man seine Spartan Fähigkeit benutzt.
