Rick and Morty is now working its way through the sixth season of the series, and the first look at Episode 3 of the new season is setting the stage for video game parody! Rick and Morty Season 6 kicked off with a huge premiere stacked with the kind of reveals and status quo changes that made fans excited for the rest of the season, and it was soon followed up with a lighter, more episodic story. Now there’s a question as to what could be coming in the new season next as it continues to ramp up.
Rick and Morty Season 6 Episode 3 is titled “Bethic Twinstinct,” and the trailer for the next episode of the series sees Morty angry over the fact that Summer and Rick are playing a Street Fighter like game. This is likely far from the main meat of the episode, as fans have come to know from this series, so it’s likely just a glimpse at one of the opening or early gags outside of the main narrative of the episodes. Then again, it could be the whole thing! To judge for yourself, check out the first trailer for Rick and Morty Season 6 Episode 3 below as spotted by @swimpedia on Twitter:ย

With a title such as “Bethic Twinstinct,” referencing the two Beths, it’s hard to imagine that this gaming scene will be the main focus of the episode. And even if it is, the fact that the title references Beth at all could be a hint that we’ll get more of her story moving forward. The premiere brought the two Beths to a new level of understanding as they both came to accept their respective paths, and it teased that we would be seeing much more of Space Beth as a member of the family moving forward.ย
Given that Season 5 had ignored her entirely (referenced by Space Beth noting it’s been two years since last seeing the family in the Season 6 premiere) after her full introduction at the end of Season 4, so hopefully the episode title is the more tease of the story rather than the trailer. Still, it’s a promise that it will all be funny either way! What are you hoping to see in Rick and Morty‘s next episode? How are you liking Season 6 so far?
