This year’s gameplay trailer already showed a glimpse of a few of these shenanigans. With the trailer leaving more questions than answers, it was clear from day one that the IP’s latest entry would not be any less strange.

The title is even said to feature in-game concerts, so fans will certainly find more than a few unexpected things once they embark on Sam’s latest journey.
