And this all happens against the backdrop of the Cold War.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s a pretty unbelievable story, and one of gaming&#8217;s greatest, and the trailer does a pretty fantastic job of getting across the high stakes and drama. We think this could be a real surprise when it hits the streaming service next month, and this trailer has us a little bit excited. The movie is directed by Jon S. Baird, who also helmed the fantastic biopic <strong>Stan &amp; Ollie<\/strong> about Laurel and Hardy.<\/p>\n<p>The movie is premiering at South By Southwest 2023 between 10th and 19th March ahead of its official streaming release.<\/p>\n<p><!-- cache: html:nintendolife.com\/ssl\/retro\/related-articles:144691 @ 2023-02-17T07:13:35+00:00 --><\/p>\n<aside class=\"block object-related\"> <\/aside>\n<p><em>What do you think of the trailer for Tertis?
