Is Will Smith a Playable Character in Undawn?

Have you ever wondered what it would be like if Will from The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air were to take part in a zombie game? We never in a million years would have thought he’d be in a video game where you needed to survive in a zombie game. Will Smith is not going to be taking on his fresh prince persona, instead, he will be playing Trey Jones, the guide of the group of survivors. Is he a playable character?

Trey Jones is a character in Undawn, but it’s unknown if you will be able to play as him. Trey will be able to navigate players to safety as they try to take down infected zombies. He will also play a hand in showing players how to control the world around them. The developers of Level Infinite had this to say about Trey Jones and his role in the team:

During their daring adventure, players will encounter legendary survivor Trey Jones played by global movie star Will Smith. Trey will act as a guide to help other survivors navigate the world four years after the global disaster. In this new civilization, players will explore an expansive open world filled with diverse environments such as plains, mines, deserts, swamps, and abandoned cities, each with unique ecosystems and dangers. Survivors must be prepared to brave rain, heat, snow, and storms while monitoring their character’s health and well-being to stay alive against overwhelming odds.”
