The show is set for release on VOD on March 17, 2015 and is set between the events of Halo 4 and the upcoming Halo 5: Guardians.
Halo: Nightfall steps into the personal story of Jameson Locke, a legendary manhunter and agent with the Office of Naval Intelligence (ONI), Earth’s most powerful and secretive military branch. The film provides the background to this pivotal new character in the Halo universe, who will play a key role in the next gaming installment.
Whilst investigating terrorist “chatter” on the distant colony world of Sedra, Locke and his crew are caught in a horrific biological attack. Led by Locke, ONI agents are forced to coordinate with the local command who have a deep-rooted mistrust of ONI. As they unravel a plot that draws them to an ancient, hellish artifact, they are forced to fight for their survival and to make the ultimate choice between their loyalty and their lives.
