Microsoft wanted too much money, so most studios passed (viaNY Mag).
As a result, the movie was never made and remains unmade as of 2025.
The primary purpose of this release was to showcase the parameters and special effects introduced in the gameHalo 3.
As a result, it was more about promoting the video game than telling a cohesive story.
The third of these shorts was released just before the video game to lead into the gameplay.
The story was a prologue that showed what happened before the events ofHalo 3began.
This involved the Human-Covenant War and an ancient parasite known as the Flood.
In the game, Master Chief leads the battle against both the Covenant and the Flood.
Each of these stories explores a different part of theHalovideo game world.
Its initial release was between October 5, 2012, and November 2, 2012.
Master Chief is not part of the storyline, but he does make a cameo.
This was released as a complete movie on DVD and Blu-ray after its release as a web series.

However, the improvement wasn’t enough, andHalowas canceled after two seasons on Paramount+.
There are 17 episodes between the two seasons, andHaloended in 2024.

The various anime inHalo Legendsmostly take place after 2552.
