Halo fans have a while to wait before the next game in the series, but in the meantime I’d highly recommend trying this spin-off, and others would too it seems.

The game is still in its early days but at the moment you can construct a small army out of Spartans or Covenant and do battle on any appropriate surface.
One player who bought the starter set shared their Elite models on Reddit and described the game as “wonderful,”saying“you should all support this game and give it a shot. I never painted anything in my life before painting miniatures, once you take the leap you won’t regret it.” They went on to say “we [Halo fans] really needed a win and this is one.
