A new trailer has been released for an upcoming game titled Under a Rock. This trailer focused on the combat gameplay for the upcoming game. Under a Rock was developed by Nordic Trolls and published by Gameforge 4D GmbH, and it is yet to receive either a release date or year. Other games that Nordic Trolls has helped develop include Karnage Chronicles and the Sword And Gunpowder VR Bundle. Under a Rock will be released on consoles such as the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series S|X, along with PC stores such as Steam.

Going into more detail on Under a Rock, Gameforge 4D GmbH said:
Explore a primitive but dangerous place with a different evolutionary path; here, wildlife is oversized, Neanderthals still exist, and curses are real.

When it comes to the trailer, we first see text that says Isla Snugget, which is labeled an expedition seed. It is unclear in the trailer if this is referring to the area itself, something inside the island, or the main character exploring it. Later on we get to see what appears to be bossfights between the main character and giant Neanderthals, along with other giant creatures, including crabs. Near the end, the main character is fighting off dodo’s, and this could be the main villain of Under a Rock, as the trailer song has the lyric ‘’dodo’’ in it, and the promotional image for the game features a dodo next to an egg. Also of note is that most, if not all of the gameplay shown was likely singleplayer, as only one character was fighting off the enemies.
