The '''Season 03: Echoes Within Intro Cinematic''' is a cinematic that plays when opening ''[[Halo Infinite]]'' during the duration of [[Season 03: Echoes Within]]. It is notable for being one of only three cutscenes pre-rendered by [[Axis Studios]] rather than being created in-engine; the other two being Infinite’s campaign opening cutscene, and the Multiplayer Season 1 Cinematic Intro.
