Halo Wars 2 keeps on getting content. At Gamescom 2017, 343 Industries announced that Halo Wars 2: Awakening the Nightmare story expansion will be releasing on September 26. You’ll get to fight the Flood again so what more could you want? Well, there’s more coming even if you didn’t want it.

Halo Wars 2: Awakening the Nightmare also adds a whole new Firefight mode called Terminus Firefight, which will let you play solo or with friends as any of our leaders against a never-ending rush of randomized enemy waves.

Add in new support for Spectator Mode and Arena tournaments, full 4K and HDR support for everybody playing on the Xbox One X, new leaders coming in the form of the Brutes responsible for unleashing the Flood in the new story, and new competitive multiplayer maps…September is going to be a big month for Halo Wars 2. Be sure to check out the update when it hits.
