“The Halo app will be the quickest and easiest way to find, download, and launch all Halo games that are available on Windows PCs”, the post reads.

Details on the REQs, weapons, and armors were not shared yet, but the official description from Xbox Wire mentions “three new weapons, new Sound Dampener attachments, weapon and armor skins, and more”.
The Halo app will be available for free on the Windows Store on September 8.
