'''Prepare To Drop''' is a video promoting the release of ''[[Halo 3: ODST]]'' in ''[[Halo: The Master Chief Collection]]'' on [[Personal computer|PC]] and the launch of [[Firefight]] mode within the collection. It was released on September 14, [[2020]].

The title alludes to the tagline of ''Halo 3: ODST'', and the name of the game's [[Prepare To Drop|opening cutscene]].

==Transcript==
''Open to [[M7S SMG]]s on a wall, with a row of [[M90A shotgun]]s behind them. Cut to a [[flag]] with the emblem of [[Orbital Drop Shock Troopers]] on it. A sire goes off in the background.''

*'''[[Taylor Miles]]''': "Now's one of those times, pays to be the strong, silent type."

''Cut to a row of [[M8900 drop pod|M8900 Single Occupant Exoatmospheric Insertion Vehicles]].''

*'''[[Edward Buck]]''': "Troopers! We are green and very, very mean!"

''Cut to black. Opens to [[Jonathan Doherty]]'s [[heads-up display]] as his SOEIV drops from {{UNSCShip|Say My Name}}. Cuts to his view as the SOEIV enters [[Earth]]'s atmosphere, above [[New Mombasa]].''

*'''[[Michael Crespo]]''': "We're way off course!"

*'''[[Veronica Dare]]''': "We're heading exactly where I need to go."

''A stream of energy flickers across the hull of ''[[Solemn Penance]]. A Slipspace rupture opens before the carrier, and carrier disappears into the rupture. The event creates a massive explosion and shockwave.''

*'''Miles''': "EMP! Losing power! Radiation!"

*'''Buck''': "Stabilize, then pop your chutes! We're going in hard!"

''Cut to black, then open to a SOEIV in the nighttime streets of Mombasa. Fade to a closer view of the empty pod. Its interior is lit by the red lights inside. Fade to an M7S SMG and an ODST helmet. Fade to black.''
