We have received preview images and clips for Thundercats Episode 19: The Pit.

Lion-O and company come upon a Dog City where they unexpectedly find a cat: Pumyra. This comes as a surprise since they believed all the cats were enslaved by Mumm-Ra, but an even greater surprise is that this cat has no love for Lion-O and, in the end, he’s forced to face the cat down in a death match — and she’s not pulling any punches. Meanwhile, Panthro runs into an old friend turned enemy, Dobo.

Game Trailers has a video interview with Austin Keys. He is a producer for Namco Bandai of America. In the video, we get confirmation that Lion-O is the only playable character. It also gives us our first look at the gameplay in motion.

We get to see Lion-O calling upon Tygra to clear out a screen filled with enemies. We also get to see how combat will work, which looks fairly basic. Run, jump, slash, rinse and repeat. Levels will be based on locations from the cartoon and both Slithe and Mumm-Ra have been confirmed as enemies in the game. No word on more recent show additions like Kaynar and Addicus. For now, you can check out the brief video below.

Talk about flying under the radar. I haven’t seen this talked about anywhere. Apparently, Namco Bandai are releasing a Thundercats Video Game for the Nintendo DS. The game is being developed by Aspect Digital, who previously worked on Naruto: Ninja Council.

Siliconera got a chance to play a demo of the game at the Global Gamer’s Day press conference, where the game wasn’t even announced, but just sitting on the demo floor unceremoniously. The game will be a side-scrolling brawler. In the game you play only as Lion-O, who can be assisted by the other Cats. The game is set to follow the cartoon story closely. It will feature sound effects and voices from the cartoon and will feature concept art as unlockable extras.

Thundercats for the Nintendo DS is scheduled for a release in August 2012. Click the headline of the story to check out some screen shots!
