ThePredatorfranchise constantly been changing and reinventing itself, andPreyseems to be the latest in a series of pivots.

However, there are glimpses of a different-looking Predator from previous movies.

This may have been to better emphasize the animalistic nature of the Predator.

There has also been speculation that thePredator’s new maskcould be a trophy taken from a past victim.

Again, this can be explained by this Predator coming from a less advanced society.

However,thePreytrailerdoes still feature the iconic triangular laser marks that the plasma caster used to target its foes.

The Predator’s shield is attached to the wrist allowing it to be easily used alongside more offensive items.

The metal shield reflects the more old-school, low-tech approach ofPrey.
