Those who have preordered the "Halo Wars: Definitive Edition" can now play the title as an early access bonus. Microsoft stated that they will send an email that contains the access codes to the early access players.

As of this time, the access codes have not been sent out yet. VG24/7 recommends players to refresh their email accounts from time to time to check if the email has arrived. Also, it may be a good idea to check the spam filter folder. Otherwise, players will have to wait for several days for the access code to be seen in their inboxes.

Once the code is received, players will have to visit Xbox.com so that they can start downloading the Halo Wars: Definitive Edition for Xbox One and PC. The great thing about it is that the game has a Play Anywhere feature so players can cross-save.

Furthermore, 343 is said to have something up on their sleeves when the game designer's group manager said, "I can't really say anything of substance but yesterday we had a studio-wide presentation by Tim Longo, Halo Creative Director, on some super interesting topics pertaining to super-secret future stuff."
