Halo 2 is a genre of first person shooter (FPS) video games. The game was developed by Bungie Studio. The game was released for the Xbox game console on 9th November 2004 in Canda, Australia, New Zealand, and the United States. The game is a sequel to Halo: Combat Evolved, more popularly known as Halo. Halo 2 has an upgraded engine with new weapons and vehicles. There is an additional option of a new multiplayer map. The story is continued and is somewhat similar to Halo: Combat Evolved. Halo and Halo 2 fall under the list of most popular games played on Xbox.

The game gained so much of popularity that there is a new line of toys, which are characters of Halo 2. The initial toys were pioneered by JoyRide Studio. They released the first series of Halo 2 Action Figures on October 1. These toys feature six different Master Chief, which match the color of the new online multi team elements of the Halo 2 game and built to 1:12 scale. These toys are manufactured with a greater detail and are better than the original Halo figures. The Master Chief can be articulated to any position the customer likes, including some dramatic poses. There are equipped with multiple weapons, which include 2 SMGs that are used for dual-wielding action.

Joyride has also designed the enemy, giving Master Chief something with which he can fight. He is the new covenant enemy, who is large, huge, and powerful named Brute. Brute is less articulate as compared to Master Chief. The reason is that he is less agile character. This was the only covenant enemy in the first wave of Halo toys. There are covenant soldiers, which are also available in the market.
