''As the Falcons move into the distance, a colossal [[plasma]] [[Glassing|explosion]] erupts from the sky, revealing the shadow of a {{Pattern|Ket|battlecruiser}} looming in the clouds overhead.

==Differences from the final game==
*The trailer's graphics are slightly higher rendered on some of the surfaces, including helmets, armors, and vehicles. There is also no blurring present, though these changes may have been to accommodate the final game's entire resources.
*Noble Six is wearing a UA attachment and [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/FJ/PARA variant|FJ/PARA]] knees, both of which are not default in the final game.
*Jun has his helmet on while first seen in the seat of the Falcon in the trailer, and his lines in the trailer have been changed on the final game merely to "Welcome to Reach", though the old ones may occasionally appear randomly during gameplay.
*Emile-A239 does not speak in the trailer.
*Kat has lost her line while aboard the Falcon at the end of the trailer and gained a new one in response to Emile.
*Carter's head is shaven in the trailer, has more visible stubble around the jaw, and is lighter in skin tone versus the final game.
*[[Colonel]] [[Urban Holland]] in the trailer is nowhere to be seen or heard.
*Noble Team's objective in the trailer is implied to be helping out in the main battle, while in the final version, it is to head to the [[Visegrád Relay|Visegrad Relay]] in search of [[Insurrectionist]] activity.
*Jorge-052 has his helmet on, is standing, and in the final game his brief dialogue with Carter over Six's possible survival from Beta Company's annihilation at Operation: TORPEDO has been removed, likely because canonically Kat too was also a survivor of Beta and neither she nor Six ever took part in TORPEDO.
*Noble Six does not speak in the trailer and is set as male gender.
*Carter's dialogue with Six is slightly shorter than in the final game, and discusses nothing about the rest of Noble Team or of Six's predecessor [[Thom-293]].
*The orbital glassing at the end of the trailer does not occur in Noble Actual, and indeed it is over two months before any glassing will occur at all.
*The trailer's chronology along with the [[Halo: Reach Announcement Trailer|Announcement Trailer]] is placed just at the beginning of the Fall of Reach, though in Noble Actual, the Fall of Reach has not yet begun.


==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*The number [[Seven|7]] can be seen in the sky near the end of the trailer just as the ''Ket'' Battlecruiser is revealed.<ref>[[:File:HR Video Game Awards Trailer glassing.png]]</ref>
*The [[Halo: Reach Announcement Trailer]] has some of the same dialogue as this trailer, such as Kat's final line and the "Winter Contingency" dialogue heard over the radio. This would imply the events in the announcement trailer and this trailer are close chronologically.
*A [[Halo: Reach Video Games Awards 2010 Trailer|longer version of the trailer]] was released in Bungie.net's ''Halo: Reach'' Multimedia page after the game was released.
*The number [[7]] can be seen in the sky near the end of the trailer just as the CCS Battlecruiser is revealed.<ref>[[:File:7inTheSky.png]]</ref>
*Kat's final line of the trailer mimics a similar line spoken in the [[Halo: Reach announcement trailer]].
*The Xbox 360 download of the Halo: Reach Announcement Trailer is 117 MB, possibly a reference to the Master Chief.
