In case you missed the announcement during Square Enix's conference, Guardians of the Galaxy is getting a new game developed by Eidos Montreal. The game will feature a complex combat system as well as narrative choices that can affect the outcome of your story and your relationships with your pals.

We also learned shortly after the announcement of the game on Sunday that co-op play was dropped during development in favor of surrounding the player with personality-filled characters. According to senior creative director Jean-François Dugas, multiplayer co-op was heavily discussed, but it was decided that Guardians of the Galaxy is all about "colorful personalities clashing with each other."

Wel also learned that Guardians of the Galaxy will not be getting microtransactions or DLC, unlike Square Enix's other Marvel game, Marvel's Avengers. The publisher has made it very clear that Guardians of the Galaxy will be a single-player, story-driven experience, likely to differentiate it from Marvel's Avengers.

Whilst a lot of the story is still unknown and will be until launch, we do know that you take on the role of Star-Lord as you look for a way to pay off the debt on your ship. Obviously, there's more to the game than that, and the trailer shows us some classic Guardians villains that you'll be facing.

Guardians of the Galaxy is due to release on October 26th for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and now, Nintendo Switch. Guardians of the Galaxy was originally announced during Square Enix's press conference on Sunday, but if you missed the event, you can read about everything that was announced in our handy guide here.
