But earlier this week the first trailer for the animated adaptation of the beloved indie game, Dead Cells: Immortalis, dropped, and I&#8217;m thinking I&#8217;ll have to make time for it. The trailer is a short one, only running for around a minute and a half, but it packs a whole lot into the limited amount of time it does have. Right off the bat I should note that it&#8217;s going for its own artstyle different from the one used in the game&#8217;s animated trailer, though it is made by the same animation studio, Bobbypills.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nYou will have to read some subtitles as the trailer is dubbed in French, but an English version is expected later this year. The Dead Cells series is out next soo too, next month actually, on June 19, where it will be available on the streaming service Animation Digital Network. This is a French streaming service, to be clear, and there doesn&#8217;t seem to be word on where else it will be available just yet, so you might have to wait a while before you can check it out in other territories.\n<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vg247.com\/dead-cells-animated-series-first-trailer-looks-like-fun\">Read more<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vg247.com\/dead-cells-animated-series-first-trailer-looks-like-fun\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The first trailer for the Dead Cells animated series is here, and it&#8217;s looking like one of the most exciting video game adaptations to date.
