New Trailer Analysis

Already next week we can play a little game with Boris. It will be published on February 10th, which is the studio’s in-universe birthday, and Bendy’s meta birthday in the real world.



Why “sketches”? Is this referring to the sketches on Joey’s desk?

This line strongly implies that the Boris in the game is the same one we met from the first game.

The studio being randomly generated may or may not be canon, as we know from the book that the studio’s layout in the “yellow world” is different from the real-life studio’s. The difference may be due to the studio having cartoon physics.

Wally here says “So, here’s my beef with the whole GENT thing” which is interesting. We know that the Ink Machine was GENT’s invention, but we also know that multiple ink machines were created, and at least some of them have Wally’s name on the blueprints. This might be the thing Wally’s referencing here. If so, then it’s a crucial piece of lore that’s definitely worth playing the game for!



It’s worth noting that we can see a symbol for the E key, which means that the game will have WASD controls rather than be controlled by mouse, like Showdown Bandit. This may be a test for future changes for SB’s gameplay improvements. Let’s hope this change proves effective!

Good catch! So, the Ink Demon does have a heart. Interesting implications, seeing as Joey implies in the book that heart is where the soul is stored. Did Ink bendy obtain a soul at some point?
