Halo is Xbox's most celebrated gaming franchise. A sci-fi epic that set the bar for all other video games. But like many classics, the influence of the game and its hero, Master Chief, has been so prevalent that it's easy to forget why Halo is so special.

For the latest incarnation of Halo, Xbox wanted to spiritually reboot the franchise, giving gamers the same experience as the most classic installments. So we created a photorealistic CG film that transforms Master Chief’s iconic armor into an origin story.

A story of humanity on the brink of extinction.

A story of futuristic technology. Built by robots. In orbit. Above a planet strip-mined to its core for a single drop of a rare mineral.

A story that invites gamers to return to the Halo universe, step inside the armor, and assume the mantle of a true hero once more.
