Microsoft has released a fake making-of live action trailer for Sunset Overdrive, which as you might expect doesn’t exactly go to plan.

“Some of you may have heard that Insomniac Games and Xbox have been filming a live action trailer to promote the upcoming Xbox One exclusive, Sunset Overdrive,” explains Microsoft.

“Over the past several months, the team put together an extensive production crew, drafted an array of storyboards and scripts, and created realistic costumes, props and backdrops to replicate the colourful scenery from the game.

“Insomniac Games and Xbox’s end-goal was to bring the humorous and over-the-top elements of Sunset Overdrive’s Awesomepocalypse to life, showcasing the games’ unconventional weapons, ferocious mutants and tongue-in-cheek satire. However, Sunset Overdrive proved to be too crazy and insane for anything real-life.”

Sunset Overdrive launches October 31, only on Xbox One.
