Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy: The Telltale Series Gets a Trailer and Release Date

Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy: The Telltale Series now has a release date as well as a trailer. Check it out!

Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy: The Telltale Series will premiere via digital download on April 18 2017. It will be a single episode premiere. A physical season pass disc will be available at North American retailers on May 2 2017.

The upcoming game will consist of five episodes which is common for titles developed by Telltale Games. The first episode “Tangled Up in Blue” will be available for the PS4, Xbox One, PC, Android, and iOS devices. It will retail for $4.99 USD.

The special season pass disc will be available for $29.99 USD. It will include the first episode. The remaining four episodes will be available via download upon release.

Here’s the official synopsis:

Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy: The Telltale Series is a brand new story of the universe’s unlikeliest heroes: Star-Lord, Gamora, Drax, Rocket, and Groot. In the wake of an epic battle, the Guardians discover an artifact of unspeakable power. Each of them has a reason to desire this relic, as does a ruthless enemy who is the last of her kind, and who will stop at nothing to tear it from their hands.

From Earth to the Milano to Knowhere and beyond, and set to the beat of awesome music, you wear the rocket-powered boots of Star-Lord in an original Guardians adventure, where your decisions and actions drive the story you experience.

The new trailer does boast some impressive graphics. Star-Lord looks different and I had to tell myself that Peter Quill doesn’t actually look like Chris Pratt.

The cast includes Scott Porter as Star-Lord, Emily O’Brien as Gamora, Nolan North as Rocket, Brandon Paul Eells as Drax, and Adam Harrington as Groot.

Telltale Games has a good track record. That’s why I’m looking forward to the new series.

The live-action Guardians of the Galaxy vol. 2 will be releasing on May 5 2017 in the US.
