Fire up Star-Lord's jet boots for a wild ride across the cosmos in this fresh take on Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy. With the unpredictable Guardians at your side, blast your way from one explosive situation to another, with both original and well-known Marvel characters caught in a struggle for the fate of the universe. You got this. Probably.

Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy is created by the seasoned Eidos-Montréal team, working closely with Marvel Entertainment to provide an original and authentic experience inspired by over 50 years of Guardians of the Galaxy lore. Influenced by the comics, this spin on the Guardians of the Galaxy takes players on a riotous journey across the stars as Peter Quill and the Guardians unintentionally become the galaxy's first and last line of defense.

In the game's universe, Star-Lord started the Guardians to sell their services as heroes-for-hire, and convinced Gamora, Drax, Rocket and Groot to join him along the way. The promise of adventure and profit was exactly what they were looking for. They even have a business card to prove it!!

An epic journey through the cosmos awaits.

Eidos-Montréal is pleased to announce, in collaboration with Marvel Games, that Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy: Encore Edition will be available for Nintendo Switch 2 on November 5, 2026. Developed and published by Eidos-Montréal and distributed by PLAION Partners, the Encore Edition is the Switch 2-optimized version of the award-winning game and includes new content exclusive to this edition.

Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy: Encore Edition includes everything fans love about the original game, plus exclusive new content for Switch 2:

• The complete main game – the original Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy , including all previously released digital content
• 5 new exclusive outfits – brand new looks for each of the five Guardians, inspired by 1980s glam rock, available exclusively in the Encore Edition
• Mouse control support – full mouse functionality via the Nintendo Switch 2's integrated mouse for menus and aiming.
• Gyroscope control support – Tilt your controller to steer the Milano through space or to move Peter while sliding or in zero-gravity gameplay sequences.
• Three game modes – TV mode, table mode and handheld mode

“We put a lot of love into these five characters, and the players’ reactions confirmed that they felt the same way. With the Encore Edition, we want to give the Guardians one more night on stage, this time on the Nintendo Switch 2,” says Jean-François Dugas, Studio Creative Director at Eidos-Montréal.

Inès Bruckner, Associate Producer, adds: “By developing the Switch 2 version in-house at Eidos-Montréal, we wanted to ensure we delivered a version of the game that always felt right – whether you were playing on the TV or in handheld mode. And with the new outfits in the Encore Edition, we wanted to give the Guardians unique looks inspired by the same glam rock era as the album by Star-Lord’s band that resonated so strongly with fans.”

“Bringing one of our most critically acclaimed Marvel Games stories to a new platform – the Nintendo Switch 2 – was a natural step. With Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy: Encore Edition, players can experience a true video game classic firsthand. Knowing that Star-Lord’s band will be restringing their guitars and cranking their amps to 11 for an encore is the icing on the cake. We can’t wait for new generations of fans to play one of our greatest hits,” said Eric Monacelli, Executive Producer at Marvel Games.

At the beginning of the game, they trigger a chain reaction of catastrophic events, which will eventually put the fate of the universe at stake. Obviously, preventing intergalactic annihilation was never part of the plan. But they (and you) got this. Probably.

Master Star-Lord's dynamic combat style to obliterate foes with his Element Blasters and call on the abilities of each Guardian to defeat a variety of interplanetary enemies. Also, as self-proclaimed leader of the Guardians of the Galaxy, players engage in select player-choice driven dialogue and interactions between Quill and the Guardians that further strengthens the bonds within this dysfunctional family.

With Rocket, Groot, Gamora and Drax always around you, you can expect a lot of laughs and touching moments - our writing team had tons of fun. But in true Guardians spirit, we also wanted to capture what it’s like for a ragtag group of misfits to become family. Making those personalities collide, fight and come together… there’s going to be some real drama as well.

But even when the odds are stacked against them, the Guardians never back down.

Finally, Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy wouldn't be complete without a killer soundtrack to rock out to while soaring through space in the Milano. There's Iron Maiden, KISS, New Kids On The Block, Rick Astley and more. But it doesn’t stop there and Square Enix/Eidos-Montréal will have more to say about the music in our game soon! The game is jam-packed with classic 1980s hits and kicking original tracks.

Currently available for Nintendo Switch (Cloud Edition) PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S and PC, Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy is coming to Nintendo Switch 2 on November 5, 2026.
