Star-Lord, Gamora, Drax, Rocket, and Groot aren’t just brought together by the happenstance of being in the same prison, they’re brought together by loss only a family could understand. Through all its action and deep character moments, it’s easy to lose sight of the core theme of family. Getting you to feel something is where the game excels. Featuring songs like “Crazy On You” by Heart and other tunes from legendary groups like The Buzzcocks, the game’s soundtrack and score are meticulously curated for the rollercoaster of emotions you’re put on. Telltale absolutely gets put on par with great Marvel music choices. In fact, episode five’s climactic battle between the team and Hala might be my favorite action scene from Marvel this year, right up there with that Ragnarok one set to Immigrant Song. That final boss battle puts players on a figurative moving bullet train as quickly go from controlling each of the Guardians showing off what they do best from Gamora ninja-ing through the air to Rocket firing a comical amount of ammunition.
Sure, the scenery in the episode is reused but it allowed a more quality action scene focus thus making it a trade-off I’ll take any day. This “I am Groot” introduction is probably one of the best from any medium, topped off with jokes that provide a good balance to the action. Without spoiling things too much after coming with these characters through their most devastating moments, it’s good to finally see the other side of the coin where their recollection builds them up. It’s only fitting that the audience gets the group’s first shared memory in the finale. Every episode in this series has shown audiences a defining painful memory from each member of the team. He needs to get the band back together in order to stop Hala from destroying planets she holds responsible for her current predicament. Yes, the same Mantis used by the Vol.2 movie.Īfter the penultimate episode left players with an overflowing dam’s worth of threads needing to be resolved, we pick up with the Guardians disassembled and depending on your choices, an all-alone Star-Lord. Over the course of attempts by both sides to gain control of this cosmic power, the Guardians are each faced with a painful memory from their past brought on by the game’s add-on the empath Mantis. A villain on her mission of trying to bring back her lost son. After a run in with Thanos that will not be paid off in this series, the team has a new enemy to contend with a Kree warrior named Hala. A relic with the power to restore loved ones but needs deaths to power it.
In GOTG: The Telltale Series this band of rogues is an established team on the trail of a mystic artifact known as the Eternity Forge. Star-Lord, Gammora, Drax, Rocket, and Groot are a team of intergalactic misfits familiar to anyone who’s been to a movie theater in the past five years.
