Rick and Morty: The Anime is gearing up for its premiere with Adult Swim later this year, and now fans have gotten to see a new look at it in motion with a new preview clip! Rick and Morty won't be officially returning for Season 8 until some time next year, but thankfully it will still be making its full anime debut with Adult Swim this year. Rick and Morty: The Anime will be offering a much different take on the multiverse seen in the main series, and this means a whole new slate of wild and wacky new adventures are ahead. 

Rick and Morty: The Anime has yet to confirm its release date as of the time of this publication, but there have been a steady stream of new looks at the upcoming spin-off shared over the course of the last few months in particular. With the world premiere in a special screening of its first episode planned for later this month, it won't be too much longer until we get to see the full series in action. Until then, Adult Swim has shared a new clip of Rick and Morty: The Anime featuring a surprising shoot out at the Smith house. Check it out below:
