The newEvil Westtrailer pokes fun at subjects such as season passes and loot boxes, the latter a controversial subject well-known toOverwatchplayers,which saw changes with the release ofOverwatch 2. Danny Trejo appears sitting in a chair on a film set, being instructed by two Focus Entertainment employees on how to show his excitement about loot boxes to make a good impression on shareholders.
Despite this one of the employees shows the difficulty in explaining to the actor the benefit that players can get from buying a loot box, and his colleague completes the explanation. She then tells Trejo about other benefits that the company has to offer to players, such as season passes, weekly DLC sets, and weekly login bonuses. When she tells Danny Trejo that he will be premiering the new ultra-rare five-star hero card, Machete gets annoyed and says that he “just wants to play a game.” Next, the trailer shows a bit more of the frenetic action ofEvil West, which will include atwo-player online co-op campaign experience. The gameplay shows off different locations and enemies, the protagonist in action with his weapons, and his lightning-powered gauntlet.
The monetization system of the video game industry divides many opinions, so audiences should enjoy the newEvil Westtrailer with its subtle and humorous critical tone, starring Danny Trejo, who is a beloved actor. The trailer also serves as a warm-up for therelease ofEvil West, which will release next week.
Evil Westis set to release on November 22 for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
