Warhammer 40K: Amazon’s ‘Secret Level’ Features A Story Set In The Grimdark
Amazon’s Secret Level animated series takes fans into the worlds of the most popular video games – including Space Marine 2.
Prime Video announced their new adult-animated anthology series, Secret Level, during the Gamescom 2024 Opening Night Live global livestream. It will feature a collection of fifteen shorts set in the worlds of some of the most popular and beloved video games. It promises ground-breaking animation and mind-bending stories.
Warhammer+ has been offering a variety of animated stories set in the 40K universe for a few years now. It’ll be interesting to see how this new episode differs from that. One big change: the animation is being handled by Blur Blur Studios – the folks behind the award-winning Love, Death + Robots series. Take a look at the first trailer.
The episode is inspired by the next installment of the Space Marine video game series and will take us to the 41st Millennium. We’ll join Titus and a squad of Ultramarines as taking on some unidentified foes. What do you think? Those feet in the first bit say Kroot to me… but I could be wrong.
Games Workshop shared a still featuring the squad that’s in better focus…
