In keeping with the in-universe framing of the video series, the videos contain their own narrative audio drama. At the end of each video, starting with ''Conflict Evolved'', the final part of the trailer is cut off with a "Transmission Interrupted" notice, and a short audio snippet is heard. The audio drama centres around Director [[Schaefer]] and a unnamed Comms Officer working within ONI, and features numerous nods to other pieces of fiction with the mention of characters like [[Michael Sullivan]]. In ''Allied Forces'' and ''Helljumpers'', the Comms Officer comes across upon some new - presently undisclosed - information, which is soon followed up by [[Codename: FIXER]]. This meta-narrative presumably ties into the upcoming ''[[Halo Infinite]]''.
