Expect lots of dodge rollsMotion Twin has announced (https://twitter.com/motiontwin/status/1668982072797454338?s=20) that their indie mega-hit, Dead Cells, is getting the animation treatment in 2024.
The 10-episode series is being handled by Bobbypills, the group that handled all of Dead Cells? animated trailers (https://youtu.be/MqlDDiEL6tE). The Animation Digital Network will be co-producing. Right now, we have a short teaser trailer of the prisoner sitting on a pile of corpses attempting to spark their head back to life. This comes complete with the sound of someone flicking a cheap lighter.

That?s not much to go on, admittedly, but despite being a roguelite, Dead Cells has a lot of lore to draw from. It also has a lot of memorable characters to draw from, like, uh, that one lady who dies. Or maybe that guy who? Crap.
I?m going to be honest with you. I picked up Dead Cells for their Return to Castlevania DLC (https://www.destructoid.com/reviews/review-dead-cells-return-to-castlevania-dlc-switch-pc-xbox-one-ps4/), and I loved the heck out of it. Once I finished with Return to Castlevania, it was my intention to continue on through the rest of the content. I guess it was a busy time for me because I just didn?t do that. When was that? March? Oh, yeah. I did 12 reviews that month. That wasn?t a very good idea.
However, my time spent with it does leave me convinced that it could be adapted into a very watchable animated series. No word on whether or not you have to start from the beginning if you fail to watch the series from start to finish.
The Dead Cells animated series will arrive sometime in 2024. The show will premiere exclusively on French network ADN, before screening worldwide.
