The Japanese trailer includes a "world premiere scene.

We are ignorant.

We have believed that life exists only on earth.
We were wrong.
The world is full of unknown threats.

The film begins with the disturbing words, showing a new form of Godzilla emerging from the ice, its dorsal fin dyed a suspicious pink color! And then there is Kong, running around in the vast underworld! And then there is the roar of the Scar King, a red-headed conqueror who looks like Kong!

In this film, humanity faces an unknown threat hidden in the world..! A completely new adventure unfolds, challenging the mysteries of the history and origins of monsters and the very existence of mankind. What does the title "A New Empire" mean?
The last part of the film includes a scene that will be shown for the first time in the world! What is Godzilla trying to do in the amphitheater, the symbol of ancient Rome, when he appears at the Colosseum, a World Heritage Site in Italy?
The trailer foreshadows a grand scale that far surpasses the previous films in the series.

In addition, a poster visual has been released.
The visual shows Godzilla with its dorsal fin dyed pink, the huge silhouette of Kong wearing gauntlets on his arms, and a giant statue of Christ on Corcovado Hill in the Brazilian city of Rio de Janeiro. The accompanying copy, "The world is now witnessing..." The copy accompanying the image, "The world is now witnessing..." is also a meaningful visual.
