The video game company Square Enix are taking another shot at doing a Marvel video game. After a luke warm reception to their take on The Avengers they are back with a video game take on Guardian’s of the Galaxy. You’ll play as Peter Quill or Star-Lord instead of rotating between the characters. Game lead Jean Francois explains the reasoning behind that decision:
“It felt like a natural fit to put players in the boots of Star-Lord. He’s always at the heart of the group and in the center of the action, getting to interact with characters that have such strong personalities and calling the shots for them in and out of combat… Or at least trying to!”
Nothing in regards to Guardians of the Galaxy is complete without a killer 80’s soundtrack and the game will feature that. Songs from Kiss and Iron Maiden are already confirmed with the full soundtrack coming before the release of the game on October 26th.
