Watch the Halo 4 “Forward Unto Dawn” Live Action Trailer

I’ll say it time and time again; The Halo live action stuff is some of the best marketing out there for a video game franchise. Each installment dating back to Halo 3 has had some great live action advertising.

It’s being done again with Halo 4 and it’ll make a bigger bang than ever. Machinima partnered up with Microsoft and 343 Industries to bring to you a live-action miniseries that will prepare you for the game in November.

The series follows a up and coming UNSC soldier when his military academy is attacked by the Covenant. I’ll leave it at that and let you watch the full-length trailer:

While it may not look as good as the Reach TV spots and be a little cheesy in parts, who doesn’t want to see Master Chief do his thing outside of the game? Watch the premiere on October 5th through Machinima Prime.
