That Blizzard anime from last week was one of the coolest video game clips I have ever seen, but it turns out it wasn’t the work of the company’s in-house cinematics team. Instead, it was made by two British studios, with help from some of the best video game artists in the business.
LeSean Thomas did the storyboards.
Below you’ll find a bunch of art that went into the clip’s creation.
