Guardians Of The Galaxy Devs Say It's Single-Player For Better Storytelling - Kotaku

When Eidos Montreal revealed Guardians of the Galaxy at E3 2021, many were surprised to see the upcoming Marvel game will be a single-player, Star-Lord-focused experience rather than offering multiplayer with the whole ragtag squad.

In a move reminiscent of the now-defunct Telltale Games (which, funny enough, released its own Guardians of the Galaxy adventure game in 2017), Star-Lord’s allies will remember things like his strategic decisions in battle and whose side he takes in an argument.

Speaking with The Washington Post, members of Eidos Montreal added that centering Guardians of the Galaxy around single-player gameplay also played to the studio’s strengths in developing previous games like 2016’s Deus Ex: Mankind Divided and 2018’s Shadow of the Tomb Raider.

Hopefully it’s that all the Guardians feel alive, and that it feels just like I was really part of the Guardians of the Galaxy.”
