A powerful new trailer for Velvet Assassin has been released and it features a black and white montage of painful looking executions, set to a speech by an angry Fuhrer and Beethoven’s timeless classic, the Moonlight Sonata.

The game already received some less-than-stellar review scores, but that doesn’t mean the latest trailer shouldn’t be nominated for one of the best trailers of the year. The cinematic artistry and color mixing are blended with the background vocals and music superbly. From the reviews it doesn't seem as if the actual game lived up to the same standards as this trailer.

Nevertheless, Velvet Assassin is set during the early 1940’s of World War II. Gamers take control of the porcelain-looking Violette Summer, as she sets out to bring down the Nazis regime from the inside out using stealth and shadowy tactics.
