Halo 4: Forward Unto Dawn, the upcoming web series exploring the human side of the franchise, was teased with a new vignette today.

"Cryo" focuses on a young cadet who's understandably apprehensive about being cryogenically frozen. He turns to his roommate for details on the process, and her detached explanation — "for me it's like dying," she deadpans — is no comfort.

The previous teaser, "Enlist," also looked at nervous new recruits.

Halo 4: Forward Unto Dawn will premiere on October 5th. Halo 4 is set for release on November 6th, exclusively on Xbox 360.
