New Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy Trailer Introduces the Grand Unifier

The official Eidos Montreal Youtube channel has released a brief trailer for their upcoming action title, Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy, introducing the Grand Unifier, Raker. He is the Universal Church of Truth leader, which aims to fulfill a certain galaxy level promise. Unfortunately, chances are that this promise is going to initiate its own fair share of conflict.

You can view the cinematic trailer introducing the Grand Unifier below:

Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy is in development for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and PC for an October 26 launch. A Nintendo Switch cloud version is also scheduled to release at that time in certain regions.

The game looks very similar to Marvel’s Avengers without the live service. Instead, the gameplay has players take a strategic approach to gunplay where players can switch skills on the fly to take down enemies. From the reveal trailer, it seems the characters resemble their film counterparts in personality, but not their appearance.

In the story, the group has been together for less than a year, and they must face off against a massive threat to the galaxy. Non-popular enemies are promised to make appearances, so players have hopefully inventive battles to look forward to.

During gameplay, players can choose dialogue options that get a reaction from the others. Additionally, environments will feature enemy waves where players can utilize character skills, including Starlord’s jet boots.
