EA has released a trailer being billed as the intro cinematic from its upcoming sequel Army of Two: The 40th Day. The spoiler of a title page aside, the opening sequence depicting a seemingly normal day in Shanghai through a tourist’s lens is deftly directed, with subtle setups and visual clues that a conflict is about to enter the everyday setting. It’s worthy of a film. Part of its impact comes from the reality cum fiction premise of devastation befalling a mostly unsuspecting metropolis.
