The Last Guardian Gets a New Featurette Trailer

Recently, PlayStation Japan released a new trailer for The Last Guardian, serving as one last update prior to its release.

The nearly nine-minute trailer is an introduction to the game itself, showcasing how the game’s boy-protagonist eventually meets Trico, the winged creature we’ve all come to know and love.

Throughout the footage, it’s shown how boy and creature assist each other in traversing perilous locales and evading treacherous soldiers, as Trico can be seen attacking stone soldiers as they attempt to capture the boy, while the boy is also seen pulling a spear from Trico as the beast comes under attack. 

The Last Guardian serves as the third game created by Team Ico and Fumito Ueda. The title as such shares some design similarities to both Ico and Shadow of the Colossus. These design choices include minimal dialogue, a focus on character design and a strong focus on story driven by character interaction.

Adventure fans can look forward to The Last Guardian in December for the PlayStation 4.
