The Halo Xbox One announcement trailer is a pre-rendered trailer of the upcoming title, Halo Xbox One. It features John-117 journeying through a desert on an alien planet and encountering an unknown machine. The trailer was shown at Microsoft's E3 2013 conference.[1] 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 in particular. 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 the game.[2]
The music featured in the trailer was composed by Kazuma Jinnouchi,[3] who was responsible for some of the music in Halo 4.[4]
Transcript
Open on a dim desert landscape, with sand flying off of dunes in the audible wind.
A cloaked figure trudges through the sandstorm. The shape of a SPARTAN-II helmet is visible under the hood. The edges of the cloak flutter in the breeze as the figure keeps moving forward. There is a long trail of footprints left behind.
Finally, the figure reaches some bare rocks and stops. In the distance, a large sharp-edged rocks sticking out of the ground in a manner that evokes the dead, damaged Forerunner aesthetic. Above them, a large, bare moon sits in the sky.
The figure starts to continue, but the ground ripples and the rocks lift into the air as a strange, mechanical groan is heard.
The figure stops.
The rocks hover briefly and then fall. As they touch down, the ground falls away, sucked downward as something rises up.
The figure watches as a large, lit machine floats upward, cascading sand beneath it. It continues to rise, casting shadow over the land.
The figure stares up at the mechanical giant, now with visible Forerunner aesthetics, and a Spartan hand exits the cloak. It holds an empty data crystal chip--Cortana's.
The machine lifts what are now clearly large wings formed of disconnected segments, hovering in an organized pattern. It pulses, sending a shock wave outward that blows back the figure's hood, revealing John-117. He clutches the chip with resolve and looks upward. The machine's light reflects from his partially cracked visor.
