The '''Halo: Reach E3 Campaign Demo''' is a demo showcasing a section of a [[Campaign]] level in ''[[Halo: Reach]]'', first shown on June 14th, at the [[Microsoft]] Press Conference at [[Electronic Entertainment Expo|E3 2010]].

In the demo, [[Noble Team]], after being dropped off to a beach by a [[UH-144 Falcon]], fight their way to a [[United Nations Space Command]] base, under heavy attack from invading [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] ground and air forces. Upon clearing the base, [[SPARTAN-B312]] and [[Jorge-052]] enter a [[Sabre]], a rocket-launched space fighter, and enter [[Reach]]'s orbit to engage [[Seraph-class Starfighter|Covenant Seraphs]] while assisting a [[UNSC Frigate]] in combat with a [[Covenant Corvette]].<ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ZNhC1onduY '''Halo: Reach''' ''E3 Campaign Demo'']</ref>

==Transcript==

''The video opens with a view of a nebula.''

''The screen darkens. The '''[[Bungie]]''' logo is shown.''

''A view from an asteroid field in the [[Epsilon Eridani System]] is shown, facing toward the star.''

''The screen darkens. The '''[[Microsoft|Microsoft Game Studios]]''' logo is shown.''

''The camera moves from behind one of Reach's moons, passes through the moon's rings, to reveal the planet Reach.''

''The screen darkens. The '''Halo: Reach''' logo is shown.''

''View opens on the surface of Reach, showing a large UNSC base beside a body of [[water]], surrounded by mountains. The camera turns downwards and shows a [[UH-144 Falcon]] landing on the beach. [[Jorge-052]], [[Catherine-B320]] and [[SPARTAN-B312]] jump out of the craft and the camera moves to Noble Six's first-person perspective. The team stands ready, with [[Carter-A259]] on the lead as the Falcon takes off and flies away.''

'''Carter-A259''': "Move up the beach, Noble."

''The screen flashes white as the player is given control. Carter and Kat take point, and the screen skips forward to a point where they move over a small hill. The player looks up, to see numerous [[Type-25 Troop Carrier|Covenant "Spirit" dropships]] in the sky, as well as incoming Covenant [[Orbital Insertion Pod]]s.''

'''Jorge-052''': "Is there any place the Covenant isn't?"

''One of the Orbital Insertion Pods hits the beach some distance in front of the team, and an [[Sangheili|Elite]] steps out.''

'''Carter-A259''': "We've been engaged!"

''The team engages and kills several Elites, and moves over a small hill. A UNSC base is present, turrets engaging nearby Seraph fighters. On the next section of the beach, [[Type-25 Troop Carrier|Spirit dropship]] drops off Covenant troops, including a Ghost. As the Ghost approaches Carter, he engages [[Armor Lock]], destroying the vehicle. The team then moves up toward the base entrance, and the player switches the Assault Rifle to the [[M319 Individual Grenade Launcher]] and dispatches some [[Unggoy]] and [[Kig-yar]] with it. On top of the hill near the base entrance, there is a single Elite Ultra with a [[Concussion Rifle]]. After the player kills the Elite, the team moves toward the base entrance.''

'''Carter-A259''': "Inside, Six. Lets go!"

''Noble Team enters the UNSC base, with two UNSC soldiers covering the entrance.''

'''Female Trooper:''' "Spartans, coming in!"

''The Spartans follow the hallway, passing several infantrymen. Eventually they reach a point where the wall has been knocked down. As the Noble Six approaches the wall, a Marine is killed by a Wraith's [[Plasma Mortar]], dropping his Rocket Launcher. Noble Six promptly destroys the Wraith with a rocket and moves on. The team continues down the hall, and witnesses a trooper being thrown into the wall. A [[Sangheili Officer]] steps out but does not notice Noble Team. It immediately takes fire from nearby troops and is assassinated by Noble Six. As the player moves forward, the two UNSC soldiers back off.''

'''Catherine-B320''': "Beautiful."

'''Trooper''': "I owe you one."

''They continue down the hall until they reach a control room with a [[Holotank]] displaying a Covenant Corvette. Blast doors open to reveal a docked Sabre. More Seraphs fly overhead. ''

'''Carter-A259:''' "Six, get to the Sabre before the Covenant wreck it."

''Six moves on, and passes a trooper kicking a dead Elite.''

'''Trooper:''' "You want some more!?"

''Noble Six continues, meeting another trooper near the Sabre.''

'''Trooper:''' "Sabre's prepped and ready for launch."

''As the player gets on top of the staircase, a cinematic cutscene begins.''

''Noble Six and Jorge enter the fighter's cockpit. ''

'''Female announcer''': "Struts disengaged. Commencing launch in T-minus five... four... three... two..."

''The Sabre's rocket engines fire up, and it takes off. The launch sequence is shown from various angles.''

'''Female announcer''': "First stage, engine temp nominal."

''As the Sabre reaches the planet orbit, the multistage rockets are detached.''

'''Female announcer''': "Stage separation."

''The Sabre ignites its booster engines and flies toward [[Anchor 9]].''

==Trivia==
*Later at E3, a longer version of the level was shown, featuring a slightly different opening, a longer take-off cinematic and an extended space combat sequence.<ref name="1up">[http://gamevideos.1up.com/video/id/30048/bigger '''1up''': ''E3 2010: Halo Reach Stage Video Demo'']</ref>
*The scene of Carter engaging Armor Lock to destroy an incoming Ghost was scripted in the E3 build of the level for presentation purposes, but will most likely not be in the final game.<ref name="1up"/>
