Rather than announcing a particular title in the manner of a conventional teaser, the trailer was intended to showcase the future direction of the ''Halo'' franchise in a broader sense, in particular the "journey" the Master Chief would undertake. Thus many of the elements in the trailer are most likely more symbolic or general as opposed to being directly representative of the actual game set for release in 2014.<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>

The teaser opens with a hooded figure journeying through a desert on an alien world. The figure, revealed to be John-117 clad in battered MJOLNIR armor, clutches Cortana's empty data crystal chip as he encounters an enormous Forerunner machine rising from the sand.[3]
