You've seen (and probably drooled at) the lovely screenshots, but with today's release of the first English trailer for The Whispered World, now you can see the game for the first time in action.

The highly-anticipated fantasy adventure from Daedalic tells the story of a young clown named Sadwick. Rather than entertaining circus folk, however, Sadwick has a vision that foretells the end of the world – an end that he himself will be integrally responsible for bringing about. To stop this prophecy from coming true, Sadwick and his skill-adapting pet caterpillar Spot must set out on a journey into the Autumn Forest and beyond to face whatever obstacles and dangers await them.



The trailer displays several of the beautiful hand-drawn locations, from deep underground to high above the clouds, introducing the main characters and several of the strange creatures the protagonists will encounter in their travels.

The Whispered World is due for for release next month in both the UK and North America.
