This one is probably one of the hardest hitting Halo trailers since the Believe campaign. Don't get me wrong, I loved the other Halo 3, Halo 3: ODST, and Halo Reach trailers. But the thing that sets this apart from even the Believe trailers is how realistic it is. There aren't really any older UNSC servicemen reminiscing the past, but there also isn't any epic action with maybe a somber song over it. No, no, no. This one is different. It shows the everyday people and what they went through. Just normal, everyday struggles. Nothing out-of-the-ordinary. Yet in less than a month, possibly even a week or day, how many of those people do you think were dead? It's chilling.

It's the Winter Contingency.............May God Help Us All Remember Reach

This could be the invasion day, reach was attacked and invaded while the rest of the unsc (and half the planet ) didn't even know something was wrong ,until the super cruiser was taken down and the entire covenant fleet showed up

The Couple at Visegrad were in the game. The man went missing. ThreeCharlieAlpha were the troopers that also went missing. Sadly they were show dead, tortured. The city is New Alexndra. It was glassed by the Covenant. Only a few of the civilians escaped

When a 3 minute trailer has better visuals and plot than a multi-million dollar TV show lmao

Halo actually has a pretty expansive universe, would love to see an RPG, show or movie that focuses less on the UNSC.

How they never made a movie when Halo's lore was at its prime is beyond me.

The chill I feel when I watch the Halo Reach trailers is unlike anything I have ever felt. These trailers are so realistic that you get drawn into them, you live them, and when it ends you realize that they aren't your reality. Then and there the chill appears, a sign that if you could; you would willingly enter that universe and fight for humanities future.

More than 10 years later and this trailer still gives me chills

The scariest thing about this trailer is the flight board as the woman heads the spaceport. Slowly, all the flights are being mysteriously canceled. No one's reacting because it's not out of the ordinary, but it's the UNSC gearing up for potential Insurgency activity...which eventuallt turns into Winter Contingency.

Paramount needs to get a pen and paper.

The new Paramount show aint got nothing on this 2 minute trailer smh...

Remember when there was a tomorrow. Remember our brothers and sisters. Remember when we had a dream. Remember when we had hopes. Remember the pain of that day. Remember those people that are no longer with us. Remember the thousands of lives that succumb to that horrid day. Remember the loss of our homes. Remember the anger. Remember the sorrow. Remember our Families Remember where it all began. Remember Reach.

Reach was an inside job! Covenant plasma can't melt steel beams!

"Remember where it all began" "Remember Reach" Boy that got me mad!

this legit gave me freaking chills man....

Damn those were the soldiers who were killed when you land and find out its the Covenant.

This trailer gave me chills when I first watched it.

Halo Reach is basically the 911 incident of the Halo lore...

I've never seen this before, and having played Reach 5+ years ago, this gives me the biggest sense of dread for the characters. It kinda reminds of the people who died on the titanic, who was waiting for them back home, and all that. Except on a much more massive scale

A halo movie was supposed to be made, but i guess they couldnt finish it in time. So thats probably why they havent made a halo movie and with halo 4 coming out machinima already said that there will be a series called "Forward Unto Dawn" but unfortunatly thats not going to be out untill closer to the release of halo 4

Master Chief's name is John, NOT Gabe, which is what the mother called the boy, and John was already a spartan and serving in the UNSC for several years when reach was attacked.

Hmm I wonder who's responsible for the destruction of Reach? 🤔

Made Reach seem a lot more... Human. Before I always thought Reach was just a boring military planet. Hope there is lore like this in-game.

I’ve never seen this before wow

Haunting.

Whenever I see the "Remember Reach" I get a chill that runs up my spine

I'm here now December 3, 2019 because Reach finally releases on PC!

It's so chilling to see this then play Halo 3 odst and seeing all the reach memorials

Seeing this for the first time. So well made!

Goosebumps.

I have never seen this and I'm sure as hell glad I did. Awesome! Gave me chills

im loving all these live action trailers

Is it just me, or is the woman saying goodbye to her son Sarah Palmer?

It's all making since now. The marines entering the warthog are the ones you see dead in the beggining, the house that couple were arguing in is a house you enter in the first stage and the little girls dad probably got eaten by a brute.

Boy,, bungie knew how to make trailers and commercials. I miss this military/unsc feeling. 343 just makes it look like power rangers

@Al3xtati0n The point is that Reach is where the Halo games began, it's the first scene in Combat Evolved.

"Remember When There Was A Tomorrow" Jesus, that hits hard.

The day before

Amazing Trailer. Keep up the good work Bungie.

seems like they got everything they need to make a GOOD movie and I would love to see one ^^

lol the boarding signs at the airport look like the in game leaderboards

i love the story of the halo univerce, honestly i think its what give halo an edge over other games, it has a very well thought out univerce with ALOT of backstory from the books

lol remember reach arbitur?

I have been the biggest Halo fan for all my life, and as much as it burns my heart to say it, there is nothing, as meaningful n halo 4, than there was in reach. Before you replay, just let me say it really kills me to say that, especially since I really wanted it to be that next step in the series. :(

I have a question, why'd they cancel the boarding of the ships if they didn't know the Covenant had arrived yet? I thought perhaps that was after Noble team discovered the Covenant at Visegrad, but even then, it seems that the public wasn't aware of the Covenant being there until later in the battle, otherwise it doesn't make sense why they were evacuating citizens from New Alexandria literally a month later from the initial date of the Covenant arriving.

Man, so sad to think that a lot of people thought that about the war being far from home...

That Xbox 360 logo 11 years later just hits different

halo is evolving so well, i love this game

Happy Birthday Halo Reach

This was the best Halo trailer ive ever seen... in my opinion. I cant see how people really hate this and find it boring. Its so beleivable on how a future could look in my eyes.. id love to watch a full length movie like this trailer.. just about the life of Reach before is was destroyed. Halo is about the story.. and this just makes all my envisions of the Halo world even better. People think its just about aliens and war.. and thats what it will become. But try and love story leading up it..

They really need to make a damn movie. That would be AMAZING!!!

I would love to see more

If they wont make a Halo movie they really start doing a tv show. It will be crazy popular as these low budget short films show it is easily done with much higher budget and a proper TV channel backing up it will be HUUUGE!

Incredible trailer.

so excited for halo reach

@iniquitouszephyr oldskool is in style again?

Seriously I. WANT. A. MOVIE!!!!!!! They've been promising one for years!!!!! And don't Bungie still own the film rights?

Will the video keep increasing until the whole thing is released?

hundreds of years from now and we still carry our own luggage?

@TheChiefAtlas Visegrad is the place on reach where the Campaign basically starts. Where Noble Teams Stroy about the Fall of Reach began.

@Take0ffYaHoser and these live action trailers? How much do these cost?

Amazing.

by far the best one hundred and seventy four seconds of my life !!!! NOW MAKE A GOD DAMN MOVIE ALREADY!!!

@HAHA705 where do you see new york?

These might be a bit boring, but it gives good back story on the Battle of Reach. They're going to release a live action battle soon. I saw the pictures. The armor of Carter looks AWESOME.

I dont remember ever seeing this. I saw deliver hope and birth of a spartan.

@TheReallyAwesonMan12 Thanks for the heads up.

i wanna live 560 more years to this in real

At the end I was feeling so sad for the little girl and her balloon😞

Damn they need to do a movie and it will be EPIC!

Its basically saying buy this experience epicness.

AMAZING!!!!!!!! someone make a movie already!!!!!

Man this is deep. I mean like uber deep.

i'm a ps3 / pc gamer but that was actually pretty well done. liked

@Erikthebrave what do you mean by fake :l ?

Why is it all of Bungies trailers give me goose bumps?

@busyherzel why couldnt it be purple instead....

I wonder what the Master Chief is doing right now.

i think we gona get a surprice when rach comes out

when are they gonna make a movie ?

@PenneyBack lol everyone happened to be wearing clothes from 500 years ago! it's like all of us wearing clothes from the 1500s one day

This game is gonna be fucking amazing. I had chills down my spine watching this entire thing. I am ridiculously excited for the multiplayer but damnit Halo is such a good story. Can't wait to see the last Halo go out with a bang. I love you Bungie.

@Artimas212 It's just showing some day to day life on reach. Then at the end its saying remember when there was a tomorrow, remember reach. Because reach was destroyed by the covenant, and none of those people saw it coming

@MindlessHeresy after seeing this ad same goes here

with all these short films they couldn`ve made a movie

Kinda weird how they have a Metroid: Other M trailer for advertisement before this video

old spice ad FTW

2 days from my birthday there :)

bungie is basically predicting the future!

awesome...if they were to do a movie it would be awesome if it was about reach

@CookiesAndGuns95 I would break down in tears of joy.

this live action director needs to make the movie!!!!!

@TheChiefAtlas and in the begininng of reach jorge was talking to the farmers in hungarian

See,its things like this that make me want a halo movie,and i'm not even an avid follower!

they should make this into a movie

HOW FUTURISTIC

I wonder if what reach could be compared to best: pearl harbour or 9/11?

@cptroger how so?

"Remember where it all began." You mean Harvest?
