Bioware, the studio behind Jade Empire, Knights of the Old Republic, and Mass Effect, is releasing its new game Anthem next week. It’s supposed to be its answer to Bungie’s Destiny, and when Destiny 2 released, it got a live action trailer by Kong Skull Island director Jordan Vogt-Roberts, so naturally, Bioware and EA try to one-up that by getting District 9 and Chappie director Neill Blomkamp to direct a live-action trailer for Anthem.

It’s called Conviction – An Anthem Story, and you can watch it in all its shiny glory below.

Anthem is a co-op MMO shooter where you get to swan about in fancy mech rigs and battle a slew of baddies whilst drinking in some luscious backdrops. I’m still not sure quite how the game is going to turn out (a review will be coming) but if nothing else, there’s the bare bones for a cool-looking movie, eh?

Anthem is out on PS4, Xbox One, and PC on February 22.
