Maybe simply to boost up sales? Last year was the 20th anniversary and they did a special event for it which coincided with volume 34's release. This year we get something else (regardless of the anime business, volume 35 is clearly being promoted here, that's undeniable).

If you check the Guts footage from the commercial, it matches up with one of the pictures we got last year, the one of Guts in the woods. It's clearly the same scene as far as I'm concerned. Now, if we believe what the guy who originally posted it said, that footage was from 2008. That means it's over 2 years old and would mark it almost certainly as test footage.
