As part of Marvel’s renewed interest in the video games market, the superhero giant partnered with a number of different publishers and studios to develop a range of games based on their iconic legacy of characters. While this has led to major successes (with Insomniac’s Spider-Man games) and infamous failures (such as the live-service Avengers title), the initiative also spawned a number of more forgotten projects. Fortunately, one of their most underrated releases – Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy – could be getting another chance at life, with the ill-fated 2021 title seemingly set to land on the Nintendo Switch 2 soon.
As discovered by reddit user ‘venom_daemon’ the Taiwanese Game Rating Board recently published a listing for Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy for the Nintendo Switch 2, all-but-confirming that the title is scheduled to arrive on Nintendo’s latest system sooner rather than later.
No additional details were revealed, and so for now it is unknown when the game is planned to release. Even so, this latest listing is interesting not only due to the fact that Guardians of the Galaxy was a critical hit yet a commercial miss, but also due to the fact that the title is technically already playable on the OG Switch (albeit only through a cloud streaming version).
Upon its release, Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy was somewhat unfairly maligned, with the sour taste of the previous year’s live-service Avengers tainting the overall perception of the title – despite the fact that it was a wholly different narrative-driven AAA single player experience.
With half a decade of hindsight behind us however, it will be interesting to see what players think of Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy upon its eventual arrival onto the Switch 2.
KitGuru says: What did you think of the Guardians of the Galaxy game? Was it unfairly lumped into the Avengers hate? Will it receive a critical re-evaluation upon its Switch 2 arrival? Let us know down below.
