Prime Video has launched a new trailer for its upcoming series Secret Level. Secret Level is an anthology series from the creators of Love, Death + Robots. The anima💧ted series will consist of 15 episodes, each featuring a story set i🎃n the world of one or more popular video games.

The series, slated for a December launch, includes episodes based on notable games like the now-defunct Concord; The Outer Worlds 2 (due its own gaming sequel); Sifu, which has recently been added to Xbox Game Pass; and Warhammer 40,000, which saw Space Marines 2 enjoy a successful launch in September. The latest trailer from Prime showcases the Unreal Tournament episode.

Unreal Tournament was developed in the 1990s by Epic Games. It was one of the first titles to use the Unreal Engine, developed by Epic Games founder Tim Sweeney in 1995. Now in its fifth iteration, Unreal Engine went on to become the most successful video game platform of all time. Unreal Tournament launched in 1999 and was the second title in the Unreal Series after 1998’s Unreal. The game saw players take on a series of arena battles against bots in the single-player campaign or online against human opponents. The trailer r♌ecreates the intro to the game and introduces the premise of government-sanctioned kill tournam꧒ents.

As well as Unreal Tournament, Amazon’s ad also teasඣes some of the other games 🀅set to feature in the anthology series.

The Outer Worlds launched in 2019 and🍷 enjoyed generally very positive reviews. The Obsidian Entertainment action role-playing game has am🌺assed quite a following and players are expecting a sequel to land sometime soon. Obsidian announced they were working on a sequel in 2021, but there has been no definitive news of a launch date yet.

Sifu is another game to get its own Secret Level episode. Launched in 2022 on PC and consoles, the game is billed as a third-person brawler and is available to play on Xbox Game Pass. The game boasts non-stop martial arts action as the title character seeks revenge on those who killed his master. Viewers can likely expect a similarly action-packed Sifu episode.

Warhammer 40,000 launched as a tabletop skirmish game in the 1980s and remains popular today. The tabletop experience has been converted to video games several times in its history, most recently with the launch of Space Marine 2. Space Marine 2 launched on consoles and PC in September and has enjoyed positive reviews since. Prime Video will launch a Warhammer 40,000 series with Superman and The Witcher actor Henry Ca🐷vill starring and executiꦿve producing the show.

A little surprisingly, the episode Concord is still set to air. Firewalk Studios launched Concord in August 2024 but announced they were closing down servers two weeks later. Only 25,000 copies of the game sold with buyers being promised refunds. Amazon will undoubtedly be hoping the episode of Secret Level fares better than the game’s disastro🔯us performa🅷nce.

  • Pac-Man
  • Warhammer 40,000
  • Concord
  • Mega Man
  • Unreal Tournament
  • New World: Aeterneum
  • Armored Core
  • Spelunky

  • Sifu

Secret Level will be exclusive to Prime Video. It launches on December 20 and has been created by Blur Studios. Blur Studios was founded by Tim Miller in 1995 and has contributed to various video games and animated titles. Blur Studios is also the team responsible for the massively popular Love, Death + Robots series on Netflix.
