A new Agents of Mayhem trailer is out this week, featuring a handful of Agents we certainly don’t remember seeing in previous videos. The new trailer also features an incredibly brief cameo from the infamous Johnny Gat, looking like Magnum, P.I., and a brief look at vehicle customization before Agents of Mayhem hits PC and consoles in August.
There isn’t a particular focus for this week’s Agents of Mayhem preview. The trailer offers glimpses of locations throughout Volition’s futuristic take on Seoul, South Korea. A handful of Agents, vehicles and enemies are also sprinkled throughout the 80-second clip. The game’s customization options get some time in the spotlight and we even get to see alternate skins for previously introduced members of MAYHEM, the organization trying to push LEGION back out of the capital city. Yeti is sporting a green and purple skin (which will presumably be part of the game’s Cosplay DLC) that should be familiar to any longtime Marvel fans out there. And who isn’t looking forward to playing as Johnny Gat in his finest Tom Selleck cosplay?
Agents weren’t the only ones in the spotlight this week. Volition also released new information on a high-ranking member of LEGION and the brilliant mind behind MAYHEM’s Gremlin Tech. The former, Ariadne, is one of Dr. Babylon’s most trusted lieutenants. She’s a genius, and wants recognition for it, but has also been driven insane by a control chip implanted in her brain. We also got some background information on Gremlin, a MIT prospect who joined MAYHEM after the school halted normal operations in the wake of Devil’s Night. Gremlin is the brilliant mind behind the organization’s R&D department and single-handedly responsible for creating the arsenal of Gremlin Tech available to the Agents in Seoul.
For an early look at Agents of Mayhem, take a few minutes to watch the new trailer from Deep Silver and DS Volition. Then head down to the comments and let us know if you’re planning to check out the studio’s next open-world shooter when Agents of Mayhem debuts next month.
Agents of Mayhem is in development for PS4, Xbox One and PC. The game debuts Aug. 15.
