343 Industries have released an official launch trailer for the upcoming Halo: The Fall of Reach Animated Series.
The animated series is an adaptation of Eric Nylund’s 2001 novel of the same name and will be comprised of three acts, promising to be a “high-quality animated production.”
The official description for the adaption reads:
Halo: The Fall of Reach tells the dramatic tale of the origin and intrigue behind the SPARTAN program that propelled characters like the Master Chief and Dr. Catherine Halsey into the pantheon of Halo lore. The story reveals the events that brought Master Chief and Blue Team together, including their Spartan training and their daring mission to strike back at the Covenant during the first days of the deadly alien invasion.
Halo: The Fall of Reach Animated Series is produced and directed by SEQUENCE, an award-winning studio which we have to thank for the stylish and slick Terminal videos in Halo 4 and Halo 2: Anniversary.
The series is included in the Digital Deluxe Edition, Limited Edition, Limited Collector’s Edition of Halo 5: Guardians and the Halo 5: Guardians Limited Edition Xbox One console when it releases on 27th October 2015, with the console going on sale a week earlier on 20th October.
