LONDON, September 21, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- Gamers worldwide have been queuing overnight to get their hands on a copy of Halo: Reach, the final episode of the legendary computer game (http://www.tescoentertainment.com/store/browse/games/) series from Bungie studios.

Complete with mind-blowing new features like jet packs, forklift trucks and holograms, the latest release in the record-breaking series has been tipped to become the best-selling game of 2010.

Set up as a prequel to the original games, Halo: Reach ( http://www.tescoentertainment.com/store/browse/campaign/halo-reach/) takes players back the roots of the bloody conflict between elite Spartan supersoldiers and an alien alliance known as 'The Covenant'. In this darker, rawer environment we join Team Noble at the height of their military strength in the opening phases of an epic battle to save the human race.

Since its multiplayer beta release in May 2010, over 2.7 million gamers have been testing and perfecting the game's exciting new features including upgraded reusable armour and equipment customizations, which can be bought with multiplayer 'credits'. The Firefight mode has also been redesigned with a brilliant new range of options which give players the power to customize their battles in more detail than ever before.

In this latest release, the world-class engineers at Bungie have managed to combine the best elements of the original games with pioneering techniques in Artificial Intelligence, creating an explosive mix of organic and challenging gaming.

Packed with 10 hours of epic battle, this unmissable disc also includes extensive adversarial multiplayer modes and a suite of user-customisable features. A must-have for any gaming fans, Halo: Reach is available online at Tesco Entertainment.
