"This is a more character-driven piece, and its also about a planet that everyone knows will fall, and falls to the Covenant. So it's a more somber, more visceral introduction to the game that we're making."
— Martin O'Donnell[1]

Trivia[edit]

  • The Halo: Reach Soundtrack is one of three soundtracks that does not directly include the Halo Theme, with the other two being the Halo 3: ODST Original Soundtrack, and the Halo 4: Original Soundtrack.
  • The last 8 songs on the soundtrack are not fully featured in-game. They are merely bonus tracks which appear in short clips throughout in-game campaign missions and cutscenes. From the Vault is fully featured in game, but only within the bonus Tribute Room.
  • There are two known songs - "Uphill, Both Ways" and "Lone Wolf" - that did not technically make it onto the official soundtrack, but appear as MP3 files downloadable through Bungie's website. "Uphill, Both Ways" is a shortened version of "Both Ways (Remix)", while "Lone Wolf" is simply a section of the track "Winter Contingency" using the same name.
