teaser video of <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.american-pinball.com\/\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.american-pinball.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">American Pinball&#8217;s<\/a> upcoming <em>Galactic Tank Force<\/em> game, but today the second teaser ahead of the full reveal has been published and it shows more of the feel of the graphics and how the previously-announced actors images might be integrated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The new video begins with a new speeded-up animation of the new American Pinball logo possibly acknowledging that, now it has been premiered, the extended animation from the first teaser is a little too lengthy to be used every time.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It then changes to what appears to be a tank commander in the midst of battle.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><a
