The story of Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy, while original, feels like it has been pulled directly from the pages of a comic book (or the big screen). The result is a fun-filled original story, intriguing and fleshed-out characters, and polished gameplay that successfully balances action and exploration. There’s no tacked on microtransactions, no character levels or gear score and, despite it being a game that revolves around a group of characters, no convoluted online multiplayer.īecause all of this excess fat has been trimmed, Eidos Montreal is able to fully hone in on story and fundamental gameplay mechanics. But that’s about as far the similarities go with these two games.ĭeveloped by Eidos Montreal, Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy is a straight-up single-player action-adventure with RPG mechanics sprinkled in. Like Marvel’s Avengers, Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy is published by Square Enix.
