Sizzle reel shows off game anthology series Secret Level – wait, was that Mega Man?

What's he doing here?

In what will likely be the most memorable moment of , a very emotional Tim Miller, co-founder of Blur Studios and director of Deadpool, has shown of footage of the upcoming Amazon Prime video game anthology series, Secret Level. This is coming so fast, but I definitely saw Mega Man in there.

Secret Level is supposedly a series of original short narratives set around various video games. It’s an incredibly eclectic mix including Armored Core, Sifu, and Spelunky alongside more mainstream stuff like Concord and God of War. Maybe also Pac-Man.

There’s also Mega Man, but he’s doing that really cliche gear-up sequence. Like, it’s so ubiquitous that Doom Eternal even opened with it.

I am entirely unable to process what’s going on. I’m not sure if t🧸here’s some sort of metanarrative here. As I mentioned, ꦚit’s reportedly going to be a series of short narratives (), but doesn’t exactly clarify that.

The introduction by Tim Miller was especially interesting. I mentioned to my colleagues that he soun🀅ded like he was on the verge of tears before he seemed to break further and admit his emotions. Some sounded cynical about the sincerity, but as a prolific crier, it seemed genuine. Listen, it’s sometimes easy to get emotional about stuff. I can cry pretty easily on some days. Dude might just really love showing off his team’s efforts.

Secret Level airs December 10, 2024 on Amazon Prime.
