Kept under tight wraps, the set was announced unexpectedly on July 10, 2007 with the release of the first video. Along with [[Museum]], Halo: Arms Race represents the Halo franchise's first foray into the world of live-action films, and possibly the only one, as the development of the [[Halo Movie]] has been indefinately postponed.

+Kept under tight wraps, the set was announced unexpectedly on July 10, 2007 with the release of the first video, '''''[[Halo: Arms Race]]''''' on the front page of [[Bungie.net]]. ''Arms Race'' featured several shots of characters as well as special effects and set props, but little real action. The film was also shown at [[E3 2007]], and with it came promises of additional shorts.
