Awesome New Teaser Trailer for the PAC-MAN Episode of SECRET LEVEL
I’ve got another great teaser trailer to share with you for the adult-animated anthology series Secret Level, and this one focuses on the episode dedicated to Pac-Man, and as you’ll see, it’s unlike anything you expected from this property, and it looks awesome!
This is going to be a much darker take on Pac-Man than anything we’ve ever seen before, and it reimagines the ghosts as carnivorous monsters!
Creator Tim Miller previously teased: “When I pitch it to people, I go, ‘It's actually our bloodiest episode ever. And they're like, ‘Oh my God, I can't wait.’”
In the story, “a man (voiced by Aleks Le) wakes from his slumber, suspended inside a water tank. He has no memory of who he is or how he got there. Over email, Le likens this character to ‘a newborn baby in concept but with the motor functions and capabilities of an adult.’
“All this character knows is that there’s a spherical android of some sort floating in front of him (voiced by The Mandalorian’s Emily Swallow). Puck — named after Pac-Man’s original moniker of Puck-Man — claims he’s ‘the Chosen,’ someone destined to escape the maze in which they are currently trapped.
“Whether Puck can actually be trusted or if there's more to this reality is a different matter. Puck guides the man to a sword, which he uses to cut across the jungles and barren deserts of this world to find a means of escape.”
The series features original short stories that are set within the worlds of some of the most beloved video games. It comes from Amazon MGM Studios and Blur Studio, creators of Love, Death + Robots.
Each episode of Secret Level serves as “a gateway to a new adventure, unlocking exciting worlds from beloved gaming classics and highly anticipated new titles.
“Prepare for an unforgettable journey, where Amazon MGM Studios and gaming’s finest unite in a first-of-its-kind event that brings together more game IP in a single series than has ever been done before.
