Announcement Trailer Overview
The Warrior Cats Clans of the Forest announcement trailer is the first official look at the licensed RPG developed by Bamtang Games and published by Trailmark Games under license from Coolabi. The trailer frames the game around a single fantasy: you create your own warrior cat, join one of four forest Clans, and live through prophecy-driven adventures in the Lake Territories.
Video Highlights:
- Hunting sequences showing prey stalking in forest environments
- Training scenes tied to character progression
- Clan-versus-Clan confrontations and territorial tension
- Glimpses of the cat creator and customization options
- Story framing built around the four Clan campaigns
The announcement trailer emphasizes atmosphere as much as mechanics: misty woodlands, moonlit clearings, and the quiet ritual weight of Clan life. Every scene in the trailer maps to a confirmed system — hunting, training, combat, and branching story choices — rather than pre-rendered cinematic filler.
Watch the trailer on the official Trailmark Games YouTube channel or check the official game page for the highest quality version and updated pre-order information.
