Deliver Hope is a live-action trailer for Halo: Reach. It was released 26th August, 2010 and runs for 1:06. It has a somber note to it, following the game's noticeably darker tone.

Trivia

  • The fact Catherine-B320 does not have a prosthetic arm implies that the events seen in the trailer take place before the Fall of Reach. This was confirmed by Brian Jarrard, who stated that the takes place during the mission where Kat lost her arm. The Spartan who delivers the MFDD nuke into the cruiser is also implied to be the previous Noble Six, Thom-293. However, the trailer is intentionally vague about the setting, which may lead casual fans to assume it takes place on Reach.[1]
  • Early storyboards of the trailer showed Kat's arm being severed, presumably by the Banshee Fuel Rod Cannon blast that knocks her down, but the scene was cut due to being deemed too violent for television.[2]
  • The scene shown in the trailer is reminiscent of a part of Halo: First Strike, where Red Team destroys a Covenant cruiser from the inside with a Fury Tactical Nuclear Weapon.
  • One Elite Ultra is shown to be wielding both Energy Sword and a Plasma Rifle, a combination that has never been seen before.
  • At 0.21 into the video, Carter-A259 can be seen killing an Elite with his combat knife.
  • It is possible that radiation from the plasma got into Catherine-B320's arm and needed to be amputated.
