Ensemble Studio’s RTS twist on the Halo universe, Halo Wars, is now available for Xbox Live Gold Subscribers to download and try out for themselves. In the demo, players will be able to play the first two campaign missions and the Skirmish mode on one of the 14 multiplayer maps. Weighing a heavy 1.4GB, the Halo Wars demo might take a bit to download, but hey it’s free, so go ahead and start that download.

Halo Wars will officially be hitting stores on March 3rd with two versions: the standard version and the limited edition version, which will contain three news maps for Halo 3.

During its CES 2009 keynote, Microsoft announced that the Halo Wars demo would be arriving to the Xbox Live Marketplace on February 5, just a few weeks before the actual game hits stores on February 28.

Being a fan of the Halo series, I’m kind of skeptical about this game because it’s not an FPS. I’m glad to hear there’s a demo coming out to see if I’d like it.
