Halo: Winter Contention | Audiobook

Alongside the Noble Intention event in Halo Infinite, the arrival of Spartans Thom-A293 and Rosenda-A344 brings a new short story that explores an earlier configuration of Noble Team, seven months before the events leading to the fall of Reach would take place.

“December 2551. Though the Covenant invasion of Concord has seen a rare UNSC victory, the Spartans of Noble Team find themselves stranded in a remote hinterland town. Though the Covenant’s orbital presence has been neutralized, the remaining alien survivors have regrouped and prepare to make a devastating final stand.

With dwindling time and no reinforcements, Kat-B320 comes up with a daring plan to do what Spartans do best and turn the tide—and it’s up to Thom-A293 and Rosenda-A344 to make it happen.”

"Nice moves Kat. You're a natural Wheelman".

*Everyone who's played Reach* LMAO!

Just saw one of the Halo shorts with this guy narrating and thought it would be cool to have an audiobook narrated by him. This is perfect.

Been waiting for a Noble Team book for years, this'll have to do.

[diosbatman]

Please for the next seasons make this short stories animated! Like terminals

[phanto]

More like this 343! I believe in your new management and your development team so please prove me right. So far you have been doing that! Great job with this event

Oh sweet, some lore on Thom and Rosenda.

[captainnapollo]

Jun and Rosenda will definitely be reuiniting. For those who don't know, after the events of halo reach, jun is now a recruiter for the latest spartan program. "two six six" is almost definitely referring to jun, as his tag is A266. I reckon the little message epilogue is teasing a reunion between the two :)

Rose is coming back! Can't wait to see her and Jun in a cinematic together

[UnscMinusStudios]

This is how reach was before the covenant arrive... i miss this Planet so much

[LiterallyIzutsumi]

i wish jorge was able to get that peaceful life he wanted RIP

[LuisRivera]

Wow! This was amazing. I can listen to this all day. Keep this up. Shout out to the narrator. His voice made this audio very epic.

[Real_Halo_MC]

Bittersweet story for sure, with the Battle of Fumirole (where the rest of Noble are being deployed to at the end) being where Thom lost his life, meaning that this story is the last time Rosenda saw most of Noble, but I wonder if this is going to bring her straight into some of the recent events with that ending 👀. Would definitely be cool to see her become important in the MP story, alongside Jun

Very cool audio piece

24:52 "She wondered if she'd ever see them again.."
Noble team after that: *rip*

[MadlyMesozoic]

Nice try 343, I refuse to believe Kat would come up with any good plan that involves driving.

[Nobe_One]

i am losing it. this was such fun AND we got to see Noble again. Please publish this in a book of short stories or something. Please give us more Noble!!!

[AgentSkidZ]

“Military magenta” and “violent violet” sound like good names for Covenant themed coatings.

[shadepizza]

8:00 Ah yes, the warthog. The vehicle Kat famously drives very well.

[Munchpoke]

New Reach content?! Thaaaank you!! You made this old Spartan very happy today!

[kostakatsoulis]

Hell yeah more lore for planet Concord!

[KwonCustoms]

Ah hell yeah We're back in Good ol' 2010 Halo days
