Winter Contention (sometimes styled Winter Contention: A Halo Waypoint Chronicle) is an upcoming short story written by 343 Industries and due to release on February 8, 2023, to celebrate the Halo Infinite in-game Noble Intention event. The story follows the Spartan supersoldiers of Noble Team during a mission set prior to the Battle of Fumirole, and features the first major appearance of Rosenda-A344 in Halo media and the first appearance of Thom-A293 since his debut and death in Deliver Hope. Accordingly, the story's cover artwork depicts a stylistic take on the original Halo: Reach Noble Team artwork recreated with Halo Infinite art assets, albeit with Rosenda and Thom replacing Emile-A239 and Noble Six, respectively.

As with the previous story in the Halo Waypoint Chronicle series, Vertical Umbrage, the story will be available as an audiobook on YouTube narrated by Alex Wakeford.
