Check it out here!

This is looking surprisingly good. Also, I love that the classic Halo monk chant is making a return.

VinFTW · Oct 22, 2014

Looks incredible... Production value looks through the roof and I'm really liking this Locke character/actor.

Halo<3

Sh0tGuN · Oct 22, 2014

Ok. This is pure epicness.

Is super interesting for the contents...

Is that the Gravemind at the end speaking to Locke? What about the "Spartan" guy?

Sooo hyped! It looks great!

dancegrenade · Oct 22, 2014

Where is Master Chief?

Jawmuncher · Oct 22, 2014

Looks pretty good.
Have high hopes considering Halo Forward Unto Dawn was quite the surprise.

EBE · Oct 22, 2014

streaming, right? not on disc?

The Flash · Oct 22, 2014

Gave me some legit chills.

Correct. Included with Master Chief Collection, streams on Halo Channel. But you own it and can watch it whenever. After they've all aired you can obviously watch in any order, etc.

Ol No Bones · Oct 22, 2014

Very cool.

BY2K · Oct 22, 2014

The monk-like chanting gave me chills.

And I don't even play Halo, I just love the music.

ProvenDeadly · Oct 22, 2014

343 is killing it w/ content.

Am I the only one to want watch this at Cinema? :/
Something so good MUST be in Cinema not in streaming!

GrizzNKev · Oct 22, 2014

This is looking very promising. Excite

Grisby · Oct 22, 2014

Neat.

How long is each episode, and how many episodes are there?

Eventually.

Five. Variable length (as was Forward Unto Dawn - and actually one of the better aspects of non-commercial digital - the episode gets to be the right length instead of an arbitrary ad=mashed half hour) and they will add up to about the length of a feature film.

Guerrillas in the Mist · Oct 22, 2014

One of the characters is an ex-Spartan? Interesting.

AcePartyN7 · Oct 22, 2014

Yeah Halo in cinema will be awesome

I cannot wait to see this first episode and Locke seem a very good character.

T.O.P · Oct 22, 2014

This looks so damn good, will rewatch FUD later as well

Will there be a download option as well? For those of us who want a higher fidelity video.

gdt · Oct 22, 2014

Man, I really gotta get an XB1. Need the Halo collection. My buddy won one and sold it for $300. Really sucks I missed out on that.

That story aspect is pretty damn interesting, it should be cool to watch it play out.

Prelude to Halo 5, Locke's origin story who is a big character in that game.

RoKKeR · Oct 22, 2014

Well shit, looks good. Better than expected.

this is my follow up question as well. even if the option only becomes available once theyre all out.

production looks good. wouldnt want to waste it on my internet speed.

How does that work? Aren't they different from normal humans?

klodeckel · Oct 22, 2014

Looks amazing.

Who is that voice at the end? Is that the Gravemind?

Stinkles · Oct 22, 2014

They're surgically, mechanically and medically enhanced. But ultimately they are baseline humans (initially).

Yeah, I remember. But how does one go back after all that? Cant ungrow 2 feet for example.

Watch the trailer carefully.

His augmentations probably failed so he never finalized his training

KINGofCRA5H · Oct 22, 2014

If this is anything like Forward Unto Dawn, then holy shit. FUD was amazing and this is looking pretty good too

Guerrillas in the Mist · Oct 22, 2014

[Halo geek mode enabled] SPARTAN-IIs (like Master Chief) were abducted by ONI as kids, given a shit-ton of physical enhancements and brutal training which killed many of them, and then turned into supersoldiers.

There's also SPARTAN-IIIs (like most of Noble Team in Halo:Reach) which were recruited from orphans whose parents were killed at colonies attacked by the Covenant, given some more drugging/enhancements and brutal training, before (mostly) being sent off on near-suicide missions.

Either way, what happens to them once the massive war of survival against a genocidal alien force ends?

rogue_nine82 · Oct 22, 2014

Looks really good. So I can watch this in full when the master chief collection drops on the 11th or will it be released as episodes like Foward Unto Dawn?

Stinkles · Oct 22, 2014

You can START watching it. Airs weekly, like Forward unto Dawn.

Sh0tGuN · Oct 22, 2014

What about the languages? Will there be others than English at the D1? At least for subtitles?

VisceralBowl · Oct 22, 2014

Can you say roughly how long individual episodes are?

You send them to fight terrorists and clean up the mess that the war left.

Same languages as game, same day.

Krappadizzle · Oct 22, 2014

Looks great. I got MCC preloaded and am ready to go.

jem0208 · Oct 22, 2014

Oh man, that was a really good trailer.

I wonder what this new threat they seem to be so afraid of is...

bishoptl · Oct 22, 2014

Impressive looking trailer. Hope this eventually comes to Netflix a la Forward Unto Dawn.

Succinct Verbosity · Oct 22, 2014

My concern is that there will be too much action. I'm not saying there shouldn't be any action, but this style of media should allow Halo to expand past shoot bang.

Flintty · Oct 22, 2014

Ohh yeeeaaasssss! Looks so damn good. I cannot wait to see this!

AcePartyN7 · Oct 22, 2014

Stinkles said:

Nice! Off topic but what about MCC, do you know if they will be multiple languages in the game disc?
Or do you know if at least English will be present for the non-English version of the game? If I remember Dan and Dennis confirmed that in Gamescom to me but with the recent space issue maybe this has changed.

Balmung421 · Oct 22, 2014

DAYUM that was a good trailer. So hyped now

dancrane212 · Oct 22, 2014

Impressive, I hope the showtime series looks this good!

SargerusBR · Oct 22, 2014

Looks much better than Forward Unto Dawn, and that was already good.

Solidsoul · Oct 22, 2014

There will be no shortage of Halo for at least over a year. With Halo MCC, watching Nightfall, playing the Halo 5: Guardians Beta in December as well as Halo Spartan Strike, continuing to play Halo MCC while watching/reading trailers and news on Halo 5 all year long, as well as the Halo TV show that's supposed to air next year and then Halo 5: Guardians official release.

It's an great time to be a Halo fan, thanks 343.

hawk2025 · Oct 22, 2014

Got dem chills!

The Elite looked a bit... off, though? I don't know.
