Trivia
- This is the second episode to feature animation outside of the Halo games, as well as the first fight scene, animated by Sephtic. The first was Invader.
- During production and in the original script, this episode was titled Promotion before Syp had changed the title to Overture in reference to this episode's status as a turning point for the series as the true start of its story as well as because Syp wanted the episode to have a more memorable name.
- Pathfinder, and by extension Forge, is revealed to work for Trinity, a company first mentioned in Replacement and again in Stashed.
- This episode introduces Balboa, a character who was intended to be first heard during Invader instead of Forge before it was changed due to Revoltge lacking the time to record the lines.
- The fax machine from Fax appears in the background while Sarah and Nicole converse over Mexican food, shown to have been thrown in the trash since that episode.
- The scene with Louie on Outpost High Ground was added very late into production, with Syp writing, voicing, and filming the scene mere days before it aired.
- The guards of Outpost High Ground are shown to have been taken prisoner since they were last seen in Machine, with the exception of Captain Jasper who was killed in Invader. O'Brien is shown to have been killed offscreen, with his body left by the computers where he seemingly alerted HQ about the Damned's arrival.
- O'Brien is revealed to be a corporal, rather than a captain as he claimed to be in Machine.
- It is heavily implied that HQ directly lied to Geff about the circumstances of his reassignment, with Geff believing and telling his team that they're becoming Spartans despite Alana and Randy discussing their transfer to Trinity.
- Alana's death scene was originally going to be offscreen between episodes before Syp considered asking Sephtic due to wanting the episode to feel more substantial.
- This episode is a reimagining of The Transfer while also incorporating elements from Deception and Ambush.
