Last year episodic gamemaker Telltale Games revealed that they would be making a Marvel game in the future.
Tonight at The Game Awards 2016, what exactly that Marvel game would be was revealed. An announce trailer was shown confirming Guardians of the Galaxy: The Telltale Series is on the way.
It’s a brief confirmation and doesn’t show much, but you can watch the trailer and learn more about the game below.
Here’s more information from Telltale:
Revealed LIVE on stage at The Games Awards, today we can officially announce a previously-top-secret project we’ve been quietly working on behind the scenes”¦ an interactive episodic game series based on Marvel’s iconic Guardians of the Galaxy!

“The energizing blend of humor, emotion, teamwork, and full-on sci-fi action-adventure of the Guardians provides an enormously satisfying space to explore through Telltale’s unique style of interactive storytelling,” said Kevin Bruner, Co-Founder and CEO of Telltale Games. “In Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy: The Telltale Series, players will take on multiple roles within the ragtag band of heroes, and take the pilot’s seat in directing their escapades around the universe.

“With story at the core of everything that Marvel creates, who better to team with than master storytellers Telltale Games,” said Jay Ong, Senior Vice President, Games & Innovation, Marvel Entertainment. “Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy: The Telltale Series* fully showcases Marvel and Telltale’s rich legacy of storytelling, and fans will find themselves immersed in an original, character-driven narrative.

The series will also hit retail as a special season pass disc, which will include the first episode in the season, and will grant access to the subsequent four episodes as they become available for download via online updates. We’ll have more specific platform details to announce in the coming year.
While I love Telltale games and think this could be a lot of fun, all I really want to know it…where’s our season two of The Wolf Among Us?!
