Transcript
John-117 is seen grasping hold of a holographic representation of Cortana contained within a portable holotank, whom are both standing within the wreckage of the UNSC Forward Unto Dawn. The shot soon changes to various vistas scenery inside of Requiem.
- John-117: "Where are we?"
- The Didact: "And so you come at last."
AN ANCIENT HATRED
A Cryptum rises beyond a cliff. This is shown to startle John-117, and so he quickly turns around and upholsters his assault rifle in alarm.
- John-117: "Cortana, what is it?"
CONFINED FOR A MILLENIA
John-117 is now seen entering a chamber designed by the Forerunners. Afterwards, he is seen inspecting a Cryptum.
UNLEASHED IN A MOMENT
John activates it, which then subsequently emits a large burst of energy. Soon multiple Promethean Knights translocate to the vicinity.
- The Didact: "We are Forerunners, guardians of all that exists."
Halo 4 gameplay footage is then shown with an interlude of quotes by various video game-reviewing organizations. It begins with a Promethean Knight tackling John and opening its face-plate, footage of multiplayer maps such as Meltdown and Ragnarok, a cinematic featuring John-117 trying to grasp hold of a floating Cryptum with a Combat knife, and an animation of John-117 assassinating a Promethean Knight.
The montage continues, as John-117 is seen evacuating a malfunctioning Ghost, footage of John-117 using a jet pack is then shown afterwards, along with gameplay footage of Promethean Knights, and then it finishes off with a mysterious figure using a Constraint field to capture and disarm John-117.
- The Didact: "The Forerunners have returned."
Cuts to an icon similar to that of the Didact, glowing orange and spinning upside down.
AN ANCIENT EVIL AWAKENS
The video finishes with the Halo 4, 343 Industries, Xbox 360, and Microsoft logos being presented.
