Stop the presses! The newest trailer for Secret Level, the animated anthology coming to Prime Video this December, has dropped, and it’s a feast for the eyes—especially for us Warhammer 40,000 fans.
If you thought seeing the grimdark universe rendered in top-tier animated detail was exciting before, this trailer takes it to a whole new level. Seriously, we’re losing it over here. Let’s break it down.
The Warhammer 40,000 Episode: What We Spotted
Blur Studios, the creative powerhouse behind Love, Death & Robots, has pulled out all the stops with their Warhammer 40,000 contribution to Secret Level. With Tim Miller at the helm and Dave Wilson as executive producer, we’re in for some breathtaking storytelling and visuals. Here’s what caught our eye:
1. The Grizzled Veteran
We caught a quick glimpse of a hardened Space Marine Veteran with service studs marking decades—maybe centuries—of loyal service. Could this be one of the Bladeguard Veterans from later in the trailer? Either way, he looks like someone who’s seen more heretics than we’ve had hot recaff.
2. Combat Chaos
The action kicks into high gear with a shot of Titus and his squad in the thick of battle. Who are their enemies? The trailer keeps it vague, but whatever they are, they’re clearly about to experience firsthand what “purging” means in the Emperor’s name. From the energy crackle of power swords to the fiery roar of bolters, it’s clear that this episode is delivering all the brutal spectacle we crave.
3. The Squad in Action
We see Lieutenant Titus leading a trio of Bladeguard Veterans—each a walking arsenal of righteous destruction. Sure, it’s just four warriors, but if you’ve played Space Marine or know your lore, you already know that’s more than enough firepower to bring down entire armies. It’s a small squad with big energy, and we’re ready for the cinematic carnage.
Why This Is a Big Deal
This isn’t just another spin-off—it’s a love letter to Warhammer 40,000’s rich universe, lovingly crafted by a studio that knows how to deliver jaw-dropping animation. For newcomers, it’s a gateway into the lore. For veterans of the hobby, it’s a chance to see the 41st Millennium come to life like never before.
