by

As someone who’s spent countless hours immersed in the pixelated worlds of gaming, I can confidently say that “Secret Level” has managed to hit the sweet spot for me and fellow gamers alike. The show’s unique blend of nostalgia and fresh perspectives on classic games is a testament to the creativity and passion of its team.

If you share our passion for video games, then you’ll surely appreciate them even more when they are brilliantly transformed into movies and TV shows. This trend is evident with recent successes like “The Last of Us,” “Fallout,” and “Twisted Metal.” Now, we can include another series in that list as the animated show “Secret Level” has been a massive hit among viewers, quickly climbing to the top of the ratings.

Starting December 10th, I’m thrilled to share that “Secret Level” is now leading the pack on Prime Video, outpacing other recent releases such as “Pop Culture Jeopardy”, “Cross”, “The Sticky”, and the revamped “Cruel Intentions”. Given the impressive lineup behind this project, it’s not hard to understand why. The series boasts some big names in voice acting, including Arnold Schwarzenegger, Patrick Schwarzenegger, Kevin Hart, Laura Bailey, and Keanu Reeves.

For the first time showcased at Gamescom in August, “Secret Level” provides a compact overview of some classic games we know and love, introducing innovative adaptations of titles such as “Dungeons & Dragons”, “Pac-Man”, “Warhammer 40,000”, and “Unreal Tournament”. The series consists of eight episodes, with the longest episode in the debut season lasting for 19 minutes, while the shortest runs at 10 minutes. This makes it a perfect choice for those seeking entertainment without a long-term commitment.

‘Secret Level’ Season 1: Part 2 Is Not Far Off

Indeed, given that the initial episodes of “Secret Level” Season 1 were brief, the curiosity arises: “When can we expect the second half of the season?” Fortunately, we have some good news! And here’s something unexpected – it’s not too far in the future. We’re talking about just a few days from now!

As a passionate cinephile of all things gaming, I’m thrilled to share that I’ll be immersing myself in the next installment of Secret Level Season 1: Part 2, set to premiere on Prime Video on Tuesday, Dec. 17. This continuation promises to delve deeper into some classic games we all hold dear, such as Mega Man, The Outer Worlds 2, Spelunky, and the entire PlayStation console. The specific episode lengths haven’t been disclosed yet, so we’ll have to wait and see which ones will offer a marathon viewing experience and which ones will be more of a quick flick. However, considering the pace of the first half, I’m confident that you’ll find yourself glued to your screen for the entire season in one go.

Regarding the potential future of “Secret Level” and whether there will be a second season, the decision hasn’t been made yet. However, if it does happen, creators Tim Miller and Dave Wilson have hinted at other video games they might adapt with their unique style. In an interview with Screen Rant, Dave Wilson expressed his desire to create an episode based on Pong, while Tim Miller referred to Fortnite as the “Moby Dick of video games.

At present, no definite information has surfaced, so for the time being, we’ll need to make do with everything that Season 1 of “Secret Level” provides. Our preferred episode thus far is “PAC-MAN: Circle,” and it’s intriguing to speculate how they might surpass it in the second half. Regardless, we’re absolutely thrilled to receive additional video game adaptations, particularly those like “Secret Level” that offer a unique, twisted take on our cherished classics.
