Update: Halo Wars is still scheduled for a March 3 release in North America, contrary to what Robbie Bach said at CES. The game is landing in Japan and Asia Pacific on February 26 and Europe, Middle East and Africa on February 27. Thanks to Kotaku for the heads up.
Original story:
Robbie Bach, President of Microsoft’s entertainment and devices division, spoke during yesterday’s CES 2009 keynote. There, he confirmed that Halo Wars would ship on February 28, a few days earlier than originally planned. He also noted that the RTS title will have a "T" for Teen rating, becoming the first in the Halo series to have less than a "M" for Mature rating.
Bach went on to reiterate that Halo 3: ODST will be launching in Fall 2009. He also noted that the series as a whole has sold over 25 million copies worldwide.
