WATCH: gen:LOCK Official Trailer
Fifty years in the future, an oppressive authoritarian force threatens to conquer the world. A daring team is recruited to pilot a new form of weaponized neuroscience that powers devastating mecha, but they must be willing to sacrifice everything to save the world.
WELL DAMN!
I mean, I know I already saw the first episode, but this new gen:LOCK Official Trailer for season 1 has me even more hyped.
Story teases
This trailer basically hints at all the elements that seem to make up gen:LOCK, as a good trailer should. Action, the formation of the gen:LOCK team, more action, a little bit of romance, and a load more action. This could have just been a full on giant robot smash-em-up and I’d probably have still loved it. But that’s not what Rooster Teeth do. They do like to subvert expectations. So gen:LOCK gives us giant robots, but also a team with human motivations for what they do.
If you are as excited as I am for this show then you don’t have long to wait. gen:LOCK premieres on RoosterTeeth.com on January 26th (straight after the RWBY Vol. 6 finale) with the first TWO episodes. The first will be free for everyone to watch. Episode 2 and subsequent episodes will be exclusive for paying members. gen:LOCK will premiere weekly on Saturdays with the finale episode premiering March 9.
