Halo Wars 2: kommende Patch bringt gleich zwei großartige Updates mit sich. Bessere Grafik und endlich Crossplay!

Halo Wars 2 ist einer der Titel, die 343 Industries aktuell mit einem großen Update versorgt. Geplant ist nicht weniger als ein Update der grafischen Darstellung und endlich eine Verbindung zwischen Xbox und Windows 10 Spielern.

Das etwa 47,51 große Update hat leider noch keinen finalen Termin, sollte nun aber möglichst schnell veröffentlicht werden, da damit auch Xbox one X Support einzug hält.

Aber auch normale Xbox Spieler profitieren, da HDR Support integriert wird was die Optik durch höhere dynamische Range verfeinert.

Auch dürfen PC und alle Xbox Spieler durch die neu geschaffenen Crossplay-Funktionen profitieren. Mit dem Update können Xbox One und Windows 10 Spieler mit und gegeneinander antreten.

 

NEW FEATURES

  • Added support for 4K Ultra HD & HDR gameplay on Xbox One X
  • Crossplay is here for Xbox One and Windows 10 PCs!

 

– Crossplay will be supported for Campaign, Blitz Firefight, Terminus Firefight, Custom Games, and all UNRANKED Playlists

– All of the existing ranked playlists will remain platform-specific for the sake of fairness and parity
– For players who really want to see how console stacks up against PC, a new playlist called „Ranked 3v3 X War“ will be added that will support crossplay.
– Crossplay will be rolled out in phases to make sure everything is working as intended and to give the team time to assess.When the update is released, the following will be enabled for crossplay:
– Campaign
– Blitz & Terminus Firefight
– Custom Games
– Unranked Playlists: 3v3 Deathmatch, Terminus Firefight
– Ranked Playlist: (NEW) „Ranked 3v3 X War“** Crossplay will be added to more playlists at a later date once everything is verified to be in good shape.
