Attain will fall in Halo’s season 2 trailer

Halo season 2 is lower than a month away, and Paramount Plus has simply revealed the season’s newest trailer. Grasp Chief and the Spartans (glorious title for a Halo cowl band, by the way in which) will return to face off in opposition to the Covenant on one of the vital essential areas within the Halo universe: the planet Attain.

The trailer lets you understand instantly what the stakes are for Halo season 2, with a voiceover addressing the individuals of Attain. The voice — probably belonging to Makee (Charlie Murphy), Grasp Chief’s girlfriend — continues, saying she would be the instrument of their extinction. We’re handled to gloomy scenes of Grasp Chief (Pablo Schreiber) outnumbered by covenant elites and Kai-125 (Kate Kennedy) watching Covenant orbital strikes destroy UNSC ships, whereas Captain Jacob Keyes (Danny Sapani) conjures up a bunch of troopers to make their final stand.

If you understand Halo lore, you’re most likely getting goosebumps proper now. When you don’t, right here’s a prescription for Halo: Attain on Xbox, the Ship Hope trailer, and a duplicate of Halo: The Fall of Attain by Eric Nylund — take all three and name me within the morning.

Realizing that the Halo live-action sequence takes fascinating liberties with the characters and tales, I’m just a little bummed we gained’t see the autumn of Attain by the heroism of Halo: Attain’s Noble Workforce or in Nylund’s guide. However the first season of Halo labored finest when it let Spartans grapple with their humanity, then allow them to off the leash to punch some aliens to loss of life. I can consider no higher scenario suited to discover each of these concepts in full than throughout one of the vital important occasions in all of Halo lore.

Halo season 2 premieres February eighth on Paramount Plus.
