The Consumer Electronics Show (CES), the world’s largest consumer technology show, is currently on the go, and it was announced by Microsoft at their show keynote that the upcoming strategy title set in the Halo universe, Halo Wars, has a new confirmed release date, as well as plans for a demo.

Previously thought to be arriving a little earlier, Halo Wars is now expected to arrive on February 28th, exclusive to Xbox 360, while a demo will be made available over Xbox LIVE on February 5th.

[UPDATE] Microsoft has since announced that the release date for Halo Wars remains unchanged - it will be released across the US on the 3rd of March.
