After a brief run in with the UNSC, Voridus disables the Sentinels and his forces find themselves at the entrance to High Charity. Sent on a salvage run around the ruins of High Charity, the former capital city of the Covenant empire that crashed on the Ark during the events of Halo 3 after the Gravemind took control of it, the Jiralhanae brothers, Voridus and Pavium, begin to assault the Sentinel defense system, put around the city by the Installation’s monitor, and clear a path to the crash site. A new campaign told from the Banished perspective, two new multiplayer leaders, a new Firefight, two new maps, a spectator mode, and the glorious return of the parasitic Flood, Awakening the Nightmare is a marvelous package that will leave you blinded by its majesty and very much worth the $20 price tag.Īwakening the Nightmare’s story is a simple one. After six months of new leaders, units, and a mini campaign following a squad of ODSTs, Halo War 2 rounds out it’s DLC with the largest, and best, one yet.
