The first episode of Halo 4: Forward Unto Dawn is now live, and viewers can watch it right here on Mobile & Apps. Forward Unto Dawn is a mini Web series that will feature on Machinima's YouTube channel right up to the launch of Halo 4 on November 6, 2012.

The opening episode spans 19 minutes, and mostly highlights cadets from the Corbulo Academy of Military Science, which is an institution that trains the children of the United Nations Space Command's high-ranking officers.

Halo fans and non-fans alike will definitely enjoy the first episode, which is good for the continuation of the series. By the way, there is a real live Warthog in this episode, and it looks great.
