They aren't set in the Halo universe outside a reference or two due to using the game to make the show in. It is basically equivalent to the RWBY Raptor easter eggs from the first three Volumes due to it being a thing that came free with Poser.

They aren't stories set in the Halo universe, they are unique stories filmed in the Halo games, I suppose would be the best way to put it. Basically like Mini said. The only reference to Halo's story that I can recall was Grif complaining that he signed up to go fight aliens but Master Chief went and took on the Covenant himself, so he got put in that canyon instead.

Though, you later find out there's a reason the Reds and Blues got put in that canyon. They're not real soldiers. They just think they are. There's a whole plot going on about a group of freelancers who go by codenames of the states of the USA. Y'know, Texas, Wyoming, Carolina, etc.

I posted a link to the season 9 preview earlier. In that video, you see the twins North Dakota and South Dakota on a mission to steal data, and Carolina shows up. Btw, Carolina is voiced by the same voice actress who voiced Pyrrha.
