Trivia

 * Contributors at HBO have noted that the final image of Noble Six staring at a crashed Covenant vessel resembles Crashed, a piece of artwork from Marathon 2: Durandal that was drawn by Craig Mullins.
 * A shorter, forty second long version of this trailer has been made as a television comercial, which features some alternate footage.
 * At approximately thirty seconds, the chainguns on the Warthogs are firing; however, their barrels are not spinning.
 * The trailer's running time (1:06) may be a reference to the number 7, as 1+0+6=7.
 * In the scene with the warthog charge, the gunner turns his turret around to shoot the banshees, but in the scene before, all the turrets were already aimed forward.
 * At about 0:42 seconds Noble six is holding a pair of dog tags. To whom these belong to is unknown.
