Halo Spartan Assault Launching Christmas Eve on Xbox One, January on Xbox 360

Microsoft has announced that Halo: Spartan Assault will be launched on Xbox One on Christmas Eve and on Xbox 360 in January later than was originally expected.

Halo: Spartan Assault will be released for the Xbox One on December 24th for $14.99 as a download and will run at 1080p and at 60fps. The game will feature over 30 missions, the all-new online Co-op mode, and the Operation Hydra expansion pack on both consoles.

Players who have purchased Spartan Assault for Windows 8 or Windows Phone 8 prior to December 15th, will be entitled to purchase the Xbox One version of the game for just $4.99.

343 Industries executive producer Dan Ayoub commented: 

"We’re really excited about the Xbox One version of Spartan Assault, as this came to be due to strong demand from the fan base. The Xbox One version will feature all of the modes and content from the original mobile version (optimized for your console), including the Operation Hydra add-on. In addition, we are introducing a new co-op mode that will allow players to play together in some pretty frantic gameplay versus an old enemy."
