  Mechanical

• Gamora (AI): A highly skilled assassin and the 'Deadliest Woman in the Galaxy.' In combat, Star-Lord can command Gamora to use her sword for powerful single-target attacks (e.g., 'Deadly Strike') or wide-sweeping area-of-effect slashes. She is agile and focuses on high damage output. Outside of combat, she can use her sword to cut through obstacles like thick vines or cables.
  Zehoberei
• Drax the Destroyer (AI): A fierce warrior driven by a desire for vengeance. Star-Lord can command Drax to use his immense strength to stagger powerful enemies ('Destroy'), break their guard, or unleash area-of-effect ground pounds ('Katathian Charge'). He can also be commanded to pull down heavy, weakened structures or throw large objects.
  Kylosian (Comics - Human in MCU generally)
• Rocket Raccoon (AI): A brilliant weapons expert, tactician, and pilot. Star-Lord can command Rocket to deploy various gadgets, such as his 'Cluster Flark Bomb' for area damage, a 'Gravistack Grenade' to pull enemies together, or focused fire from his custom blasters. He can also be commanded to hack terminals or squeeze into small spaces to retrieve items.
  Genetically Engineered Raccoon

Star-Lord can command Groot to use abilities like 'Entangling Roots' to immobilize groups of enemies, 'Gift of the Florae' to revive all downed Guardians (including Star-Lord), or 'Groot Slam' for an area-of-effect attack. He can also create bridges or platforms for traversal when prompted.
  Flora Colossus
• Mantis (Temporary AI - Narrative): Joins the Guardians later in the story. While her primary role is narrative and using her empathic abilities to influence events or characters, she might offer minor support or unique interactions during specific sequences, though not a consistently commandable combat companion like the core four.
  Celestial Madonna (Comics - various origins)

• Guardian Collectibles (Items specific to each Guardian): 3 items specific to each of the five Guardians (Star-Lord, Gamora, Drax, Rocket, Groot), totaling 15. These are objects found in the environment that hold personal significance for that character. Finding one triggers a unique dialogue sequence on the Milano starship where the Guardian shares a story or memory related to the item, providing character development and backstory.
• Archives (Lore Entries): Data logs, messages, historical records, and other readable/listenable lore items found by scanning objects with Star-Lord's visor or interacting with terminals. These provide extensive backstory on the game's universe, factions (Universal Church of Truth, Nova Corps, Chitauri), planets, characters, and the galactic war. Collected in Star-Lord's journal.
• Outfits (Cosmetic Skins): Hidden in distinctive pink chests found throughout every level. Each chest contains a new cosmetic outfit for one of the five Guardians (Star-Lord, Gamora, Drax, Rocket, or Groot). These outfits are often references to their comic book appearances or other Marvel media.
• Components (Basic & Advanced): Scattered throughout levels in small piles or containers, and dropped by defeated enemies. Used at workbenches by Rocket to craft Perks for Star-Lord.
• Compendium Entries (Scannable Objects, Enemies, Characters): Star-Lord can use his visor to scan various elements in the environment, including new enemy types, notable characters, flora, fauna, and technology.

  The protagonist's signature tool. It is a flying drone that can be used for exploration and as a ranged projectile. It can also be recalled and transformed into a powerful melee weapon for close-quarters combat.
• Conventional Firearms (Speculative): Sidearms / Rifles
  Given the civil war setting, players will likely be able to acquire conventional firearms from fallen soldiers, such as pistols and assault rifles, though these may be less effective against the supernatural entities.

• Star-Lord's Element Guns (Kree Submachine Guns): Dual Pistols (Elemental Damage)
  Peter Quill's signature dual blasters. Can be imbued with four different elemental powers unlocked through story progression: Ice (freezes enemies, creates platforms), Lightning (stuns, powers conduits), Wind (pulls enemies, interacts with vents), and Plasma (deals damage over time, melts specific materials). Standard rapid fire is also available.
• Star-Lord's Melee Attacks: Close Quarters Combat
  Star-Lord can perform basic punches and kicks, often integrated with his jet boot assisted dodges and slides. Primarily used for staggering weaker enemies or as part of combo finishers.
• Gamora's Godslayer Sword & Abilities: Companion Offensive (Melee)
  When commanded, Gamora uses her sword for powerful single-target attacks, area-of-effect slashes, or to quickly dispatch specific enemy types. Her abilities focus on high damage output.
• Drax's Knives & Abilities: Companion Offensive/Defensive (Melee/Stagger)
  When commanded, Drax uses his knives for brutal attacks that can stagger powerful enemies, break guards, or deal significant damage to single targets. His abilities often focus on crowd control or stunning.
• Rocket Raccoon's Custom Blasters & Gadgets: Companion Offensive (Ranged/Explosive)
  When commanded, Rocket uses various custom-built guns and explosives, such as his Cluster Flark Bomb (AoE damage), Gravistack Grenade (pulls enemies together), or focused blaster fire. He can target multiple enemies or specific weak points.
• Groot's Branch Attacks & Abilities: Companion Offensive/Defensive/Utility (Melee/Support)
  When commanded, Groot uses his ability to manipulate his wooden body for attacks (e.g., slamming branches, creating AoE spikes), defense (e.g., creating a protective barrier), or utility (e.g., creating bridges, lifting platforms). His 'Gift of the Florae' ability can revive downed Guardians.
• Call to Action / Guardian Abilities (Command Wheel): Team-Based Special Attacks
  Star-Lord can direct each Guardian to use one of their specific, powerful abilities via a radial command wheel. These abilities have cooldowns and are crucial for controlling the battlefield, exploiting enemy weaknesses, and dealing burst damage.
• Environmental Interactions (Explosive Barrels, Destructible Cover, etc.): Contextual Damage/Utility
  Players can shoot explosive objects in the environment or use Guardian abilities (like Drax throwing an explosive barrel) to damage enemies or alter the battlefield.

• Protagonist's Attire: The game does not appear to have a traditional armor system. The protagonist wears a practical, modern outfit. Upgrades are expected to be focused on the drone and character abilities rather than equippable armor pieces.

• Star-Lord's Outfits (Default, Sun-Lord, City-Lord, Throwback, etc.): Peter Quill (Star-Lord) can unlock and equip various cosmetic outfits. These are primarily visual and do not provide direct stat bonuses for Star-Lord himself. Outfits are found in hidden chests, earned as pre-order/deluxe edition bonuses, or unlocked via game progression. His health and shields are universal stats.
• Guardian Outfits (Gamora, Drax, Rocket, Groot): Similarly, each of the other four Guardians (Gamora, Drax, Rocket, Groot) has multiple unlockable cosmetic outfits inspired by their comic book appearances or original designs for the game. These are found in hidden chests and are purely visual, not affecting their combat performance or stats, which improve via Star-Lord's ability point allocation.
• Perks (Craftable/Unlockable): Star-Lord can craft and equip a limited number of Perks at workbenches using components found in the environment. These Perks provide passive bonuses, such as increased shield regeneration, more health from pickups, faster ability cooldowns for Guardians, increased elemental damage, or improved chances of staggering enemies. This is the primary way to 'armor' or enhance Star-Lord's and the team's capabilities beyond direct ability unlocks.

• Guardian Outfits (Star-Lord, Gamora, Drax, Rocket, Groot): Each of the five playable Guardians (Star-Lord is primary, others are AI controlled but their appearance changes) has multiple unlockable cosmetic outfits. These are found in hidden pink chests throughout the game's levels or are given as pre-order/Deluxe Edition bonuses. Outfits are often inspired by their various comic book appearances (e.g., Star-Lord's Annihilation Conquest suit, Gamora's classic green attire, Drax's various comic looks, Rocket's different uniforms, Groot's different 'growth' stages/designs). These outfits are purely cosmetic and do not affect stats or abilities.
• Star-Lord's Walkman & Headphones: While not clothing, Star-Lord's iconic Walkman and headphones are a constant part of his visual design and the source of the game's licensed 80s music. The appearance of the Walkman itself is not customizable.

• The Milano (Starship): Primary Interplanetary Transport / Mobile Hub
  The Guardians' signature starship, captained by Peter Quill (with Rocket often co-piloting). Used for traveling between different planets and star systems in the galaxy via a warp drive. Serves as a central hub between missions where players can interact with the crew, listen to music, craft perks, review collectibles, and initiate new chapters. Players do not directly pilot the Milano in free-flight combat; travel is generally menu-based or cinematic.
• Star-Lord's Jet Boots: Personal Traversal Gear
  Peter Quill is equipped with jet boots that allow him to perform short aerial dashes, double jumps, and hover for a limited time. Essential for platforming, evading attacks, and navigating vertical environments.
• Environmental Traversal Aids (e.g., Groot's Bridges, Rocket's Hacking for Platforms): Contextual / Companion-Assisted
  While not vehicles, certain traversal challenges are overcome by commanding companions: Groot can extend his branches to form bridges, and Rocket can hack terminals to activate moving platforms or open new pathways. These are scripted interactions within levels.
• Sliding Sections: Scripted Traversal Sequence
  Certain levels feature long, often high-speed, sliding sections down slopes or through tunnels, requiring player input to steer Star-Lord and avoid obstacles. These are cinematic, on-rails style traversal moments.

• Peter Quill / Star-Lord: Protagonist / Leader of the Guardians
  The main playable character. The charismatic (if sometimes bumbling) leader of the Guardians of theGalaxy. Wields his signature Element Guns and uses his jet boots for mobility. Player choices in dialogue often reflect his leadership style.
• Gamora: Companion / Deadliest Woman in the Galaxy
  A highly skilled assassin and member of the Guardians. Known for her deadly swordplay and agility. Star-Lord can command her to perform powerful single-target attacks or AoE slashes.
• Drax the Destroyer: Companion / The Destroyer
  A fierce warrior driven by the loss of his family, known for his literal-mindedness and immense strength. Star-Lord can command him to stagger enemies, break guards, or unleash powerful AoE attacks.

  A genetically engineered raccoon, a master tactician, and explosives expert. Star-Lord can command him to deploy various gadgets like cluster bombs or gravity grenades, and to target multiple enemies.
• Groot: Companion / Flora Colossus
  A sentient, tree-like being and Rocket's best friend. Capable of immense strength and regeneration. Star-Lord can command him to use abilities like entangling roots to immobilize enemies, create protective barriers, or create platforms for traversal. He can also revive downed Guardians.
• Mantis: Supporting Character / Empath
  A celestial Madonna with empathic abilities, capable of sensing and influencing emotions. She joins the Guardians later in the story and plays a crucial role in understanding and countering the game's main threat.
• Grand Unifier Raker: Main Antagonist / Leader of the Universal Church of Truth
  The charismatic and fanatical leader of the Universal Church of Truth, dedicated to spreading 'The Promise' across the galaxy under the direction of Magus.
• Magus (Adam Warlock's Dark Persona): Main Antagonist / Cosmic Entity
  The powerful and malevolent entity behind the Universal Church of Truth and 'The Promise.' The ultimate threat the Guardians must face.
• Lady Hellbender: Antagonist (Initially) / Monster Collector
  The formidable ruler of Seknarf Nine, a collector of rare and dangerous monsters. The Guardians attempt a con on her, leading to a chaotic encounter.
• Nikki Gold: Supporting Character / Potential Future Guardian
  A young girl with a mysterious past encountered by the Guardians. She is revealed to be Ko-Rel's daughter and plays a significant role in the latter half of the story, potentially joining the Guardians in the future.

• Adam Warlock (Mentioned/Post-Credits): Cosmic Being / Potential Future Character
  A powerful, artificially created cosmic being whose cocoon is seen, and who is intrinsically linked to Magus. His full appearance is teased for potential future stories.

• Main Story Quests
  The main narrative will likely revolve around the player's self-directed investigation into the Calamity, discovering new regions and piecing together the central mystery through exploration rather than following a linear quest log.

• Story Chapters (Approximately 16 Chapters + Prologue)
  A series of linear, narrative-driven chapters that take the Guardians across various planets and locations. Each chapter involves exploration, environmental puzzle-solving (often requiring teamwork with other Guardians' abilities), combat encounters, dialogue choices, and cinematic cutscenes that advance the main plot of stopping the Universal Church of Truth and Magus.
• Finding Guardian Collectibles
  Explore levels to find hidden items specific to each Guardian (Star-Lord, Gamora, Drax, Rocket, Groot). Picking these up triggers unique conversations aboard the Milano starship, revealing more about their backstories, personalities, and relationships.

  Use Star-Lord's visor to scan various objects, enemies, characters, and points of interest in the environment. This adds lore entries to the Archives (for world-building) and data to the Compendium (for enemy weaknesses and character bios).
• Navigating Environmental Puzzles
  Solve puzzles that require using Star-Lord's elemental blasters (ice to freeze water, lightning to power conduits, wind to move objects, plasma to melt) and commanding other Guardians to use their unique abilities (e.g., Groot to create bridges, Rocket to hack terminals or enter small spaces, Gamora to cut cables, Drax to move heavy objects).
• Boss Battles (e.g., Dweller-in-Darkness, Blood Brothers, Grand Unifier Raker, Magus)
  Confront and defeat powerful, often multi-phase, boss enemies that serve as climactic encounters at the end of chapters or major story arcs. These require utilizing all Guardian abilities, exploiting weak points, and understanding boss attack patterns.

Available in Standard Edition and Cosmic Deluxe Edition. The Cosmic Deluxe Edition included the Sun-Lord Outfit for Star-Lord, City-Lord Outfit for Star-Lord, digital artbook, and digital original game soundtrack. Pre-order bonuses often included throwback Guardian outfits.

No major story DLC or expansions were released for Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy. Post-launch support primarily consisted of patches for bug fixes, performance improvements, and adding features like ray tracing on supported platforms. Some cosmetic outfits were available through deluxe editions or pre-orders.

• Q: What is Hell is Us?
  A: It is an upcoming single-player, third-person action-adventure game set in a country torn by civil war and a supernatural event. It is known for its 'no hand-holding' design, meaning there will be no map, compass, or quest markers.
• Q: When will it be released?
  A: As of August 2025, there is no official release date for Hell is Us, though the developer is targeting a 2025 release after being delayed from its original 2023 window.
• Q: Who is making the game?
  A: The game is being developed by Rogue Factor and published by Nacon. The project is led by Creative Director Jonathan Jacques-Belletête, who was the art director for Deus Ex: Human Revolution and Mankind Divided.
• Q: What makes the gameplay unique?
  A: The main unique feature is its exploration philosophy. By removing all traditional navigational aids, the game forces players to be truly observant and explore the world organically. The protagonist's drone that transforms into a melee weapon is also a key feature.

• Q: Is Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy connected to the MCU movies or comics?
  A: The game features its own original story and unique interpretations of the characters, distinct from the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) films or specific comic book storylines. However, it draws heavy inspiration from various comic book runs of Guardians of the Galaxy for character designs, personalities, and lore elements.
• Q: Can I play as other Guardians besides Star-Lord?
  A: No, players exclusively control Peter Quill / Star-Lord throughout the game. However, a core gameplay mechanic involves issuing commands to the other four Guardians (Gamora, Drax, Rocket, Groot) in combat, making teamwork essential.
• Q: How do dialogue choices affect the game?
  A: Dialogue choices primarily affect team morale, the banter between characters, and can lead to slightly different short-term outcomes in conversations or minor gameplay sequences. While they add flavor and depth to relationships, they do not drastically alter the main plot trajectory or lead to multiple major endings for the core story.
• Q: What is the 'Huddle Up' mechanic?
  A: During combat, Star-Lord can initiate a 'Huddle Up.' The other Guardians will share their thoughts on how the fight is going. Star-Lord must then choose a dialogue option to give a pep talk. If successful (based on matching the team's sentiment), a licensed 80s song from his Walkman will play, and the entire team (including Star-Lord) will receive a temporary combat buff (e.g., faster ability cooldowns, damage boost, or reviving downed members).
• Q: Is Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy an open-world game?
  A: No, it is a linear, narrative-driven action-adventure game. While levels are often large and offer some room for exploration to find collectibles and resources, players progress through a defined series of chapters and locations rather than a fully open world.
• Q: Are there microtransactions in the game?
  A: No, Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy is a single-player game with no microtransactions or online service elements. All outfits and content are unlockable through gameplay or included in deluxe/pre-order editions.

Developed on Eidos-Montréal's Dawn Engine (a modified version of IO Interactive's Glacier Engine), the game showcases stunning visuals with highly detailed character models (especially facial animations), vibrant and diverse alien worlds, and spectacular cosmic environments. It features advanced lighting, particle effects for abilities and explosions, and impressive cinematic presentation. Ray-traced reflections and transparent reflections are available on PC and current-gen consoles.

Original score composed by Richard Jacques, featuring epic orchestral themes and character motifs fitting a cosmic adventure. A significant feature is the licensed 80s pop and rock soundtrack (e.g., Starship, KISS, Wham!, Blondie, Mötley Crüe), which Star-Lord plays on his Walkman and is integrated into gameplay via the 'Huddle Up' mechanic. Sound design includes distinct blaster effects, alien creature sounds, and ship ambience. The game is also lauded for its excellent voice acting and witty team banter.

Features a third-person HUD displaying Star-Lord's health, shield, elemental blaster charge, and Guardian ability cooldowns. Enemy health bars and stagger meters are shown. A compass and objective markers guide players. The Guardian command wheel is a key UI element for directing teammates in combat. Dialogue choices are presented clearly. Star-Lord's visor can be used to scan the environment for points of interest, collectibles, and enemy weaknesses.

Offers a good range of accessibility options, including customizable controls (PC), extensive subtitle and caption customization (size, background, speaker names), options to change QTEs to holds or auto-complete, aim assist options, adjustable difficulty levels (including a story mode), colorblind modes, and options to reduce camera motion/head bob.
