The '''Halo Xbox One announcement trailer''' is a pre-rendered [[trailer]] announcing the return of the ''Halo'' franchise on the [[Xbox One]] console in [[2014]].<ref name="H5">[http://news.xbox.com/2014/05/games-halo-journey-announcement '''Xbox Wire''': ''The Halo Journey'']</ref> It features [[John-117]] journeying through a desert on an alien planet and encountering an unknown machine. The trailer was shown at [[Microsoft]]'s [[Electronic Entertainment Expo|E3]] 2013 conference.<ref>[http://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/universe/detail/111609fe-d53c-4400-b4d6-44ae3629dda3/halo-xbox-one '''Halo Waypoint:''' ''Halo Xbox One'']</ref> The trailer does not assign a number or specific title for the game, as 343 Industries' intention was not to showcase the the next game, ''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]'', in particular, as that game will not be released until [[2015]].<ref name="H5"/> Rather it was set to depict a broad idea of John-117's future journey, and let [[Bonnie Ross]] announce that 343 Industries was officially developing a ''Halo'' first-person shooter that would be released in 2014 on Xbox One. Thus, the trailer may not be directly representative of the content of any particular game.<ref>[http://www.ign.com/articles/2013/06/25/microsoft-on-halo-5-halo-2-anniversary '''IGN''' ''Microsoft on Halo 5, Halo 2 Anniversary'']</ref> | |||

A version of the trailer posted by Axis Animation in their web portfolio displays the title ''"Halo 5"'' in the end as opposed to simply ''Halo''.<ref name="axis"/> This version also features a few changes from the original version. The background melody is slightly more audible than the original version, and some sound effects were changed and/or deleted. | |||
