“Guardians of the Galaxy” is arriving on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and PC.
On Monday, gamers received updates from Square Enix about the video game Guardians of the Galaxy. It became the first-ever official reveal to the Marvel title following its leak earlier in 2017.
As part of its game showcase for E3 2021, the publisher dropped the official trailer of the material during its recent presentation. Comic Book released a report on the matter, covering some of the details of the title.
Square Enix and Eidos-Montreal drops official trailer
The official trailer from Square Enix features the graphics and premise of Guardians of the Galaxy. It also shows the characters who will be in the game, alongside the theme of the material.
Based on the publisher and developer’s revelations, the game will revolve around the iconic characters from the Marvel universe. These include Star-Lord, Gamora, Rocket Racoon, Drax, and Groot.
The synopsis appears to have centered on the team, “trying to make a living” out in space on their own. But, along the way, they “unintentionally” cause major problems, leading them to resolve the conflicts.
The title will be available on October 26. The compatible video gaming consoles include PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, Xbox One, and PC.
Details and gameplay of Guardians of the Galaxy
Guardians of the Galaxy is a single-player game, in the third-person perspective. Gamers will play the role of Peter Quill or Star-Lord.
Reports said that taking the role means playing Star-Lord as he combats enemies and communicates with other characters. Gamers will also experience the manipulation of the “flow of the game’s battles and dialogues.”
Polygon said that the upcoming title is a “new interpretation” of the iconic gang. It is not an adaptation of the MCU film. Nevertheless, it draws inspiration from both the movie and the original comic books.
While the recent reveal of the game already dropped who will be part of the team, it remains unclear how the other essential characters will arrive in the picture. As seen in the trailer, the likes of Mantis will also play a significant role in the entirety of the title.
