Marvels Guardians of the Galaxy has impressed fans and critics alike thus far. The latest patch for the game has just been released, and its without doubt the biggest one yet. PS5 and Xbox Series X/S players will be glad to hear the addition of ray-tracing, whilst there have also been improvements in performance for the PS4.

Additionally, we will also see the Save Rollback feature added, allowing players to go back to an earlier checkpoint of the mission. Obviously, the patch will also help fix any bugs and issues which the game has had, which we have to say haven’t been that many. Unfortunately for PC players, they will have to wait until November 19 for their update to arrive. Could this be due to the vast amount of storage the original game needed? Perhaps not, but it’s still worth noting for anyone looking to purchase the PC version.

Despite this, PC players are still certainly in for a treat, especially with how the game looks on it. On the other hand, that doesn’t mean the console editions don’t look stunning either. Have a quick look at the trailer below to remind yourselves of the Guardians adventures right here:

The post Guardians Of The Galaxy Adds Ray-Tracing first appeared on Get2Gaming.

After much anticipation, The Guardians have finally arrived! We’ve been waiting for this one for a while now, so we’re glad its made its way onto our screens. Combining a choice-based narrative with thrilling combat, its been an absolute blast so far!

However, we’re here to make it even better for you. After much time spent with the game thus far, we’ve managed to find out some nice details which will help all you starting up the game. Let’s have a look at the best perks to unlock first to make those world-fighting battles even more exciting!

Best Guardian Perks To Start Off With

Despite popular belief, those extra health and shields aren’t as useful as you’d expect. Why would Star-Lord need them at the beginning when no enemy is entirely challenging? You won’t be needing them to later on, so let’s hold off on them for a bit.

Component Localizer- Let’s start off things nice and slow. The Components Localizer is the must-have perk to get as soon as you load up the game. It adds a symbol to the top-right of the screen which also makes a noise when Crafting Components are nearby. Sure, it may not sound like the most glamorous perk, but believe us, your going to need it. It saves so much time looking for materials so you can crack on at a much quicker pace!

Tactical Scan- This one is also more handy rather than pretty. It allows Star-Lord to scan enemies with his visor while in combat. Revealing enemy weaknesses allows us to find out the best way to beat them! Whilst we did say you don’t need the extra health and shields as their isn’t much point, these are really helpful when fighting high-leveled villains throughout the game. Believe us, there’s quite a few weird ones you have to take on.

Charged Shot- Now this is the perfect perk for combat in the game. It’s also a must-buy as soon as you can really. It is used to help stagger enemies and since it takes a while to build up enough ability points to spend on extra characters who do that this will help greatly.  Drax is the only one that can cause stagger to enemies. Therefore, this charged shot can save a lot of time very early on.

Air Glide- Air Glide makes Star-Lord glide around targets for a short time while shooting. It’s basically a mini-version of his “Vantage Point” ability and can help save on health and death count when getting overwhelmed by enemies. Jumping while near an enemy will help activate it. This one is a fun on to use too, unlike the previous examples we’ve given you.

I hope all the information we’ve given you here will really help you on your galaxy quests! Now go get out there and save that guard that galaxy!

The post Guardians Of The Galaxy: Get These Perks First first appeared on Get2Gaming.

With only a few weeks to go until players take control of Star-Lord on an all-new adventure, Eidos Montreal have decided to treat fans with sneak-previews of some of the Guardians enemies.

The upcoming Guardians of the Galaxy video game will see you take on a wide variety of cosmic threats. Visiting the bizarre worlds of the Guardians universe will have the team come up against some the whackiest enemies Marvel have to offer.

If your unfamiliar with the exploits of Peter Quill and his crew, check out the trailer below for an idea of what you’d be getting yourself into:

From Cultists To Inter-Galactic Law Enforcement: Guardians Aren’t Afraid To Go Wild

As you’d expect from a team of space mercenaries (one of which a talking raccoon), the bad guys they’re taking on aren’t going to look like your generic video game henchman.

Quite the contrary, actually.

Eidos Montreal sparingly shared new character posters with the twitter-verse throughout last week. Toothy alien lifeforms, one-eyed beasts and heavily armed troops ensure we’re going to have quite the fight on our hands come Oct 26 . We even get a preview of the Universal Church of Truth cultists under Grand Unifer Raker (quite the mouthful I know).  Judging from the trailer, they look to be the main antagonists to our team of misfits.

Take a look at all these wild character designs below:

Aren't they supposed to be good guys? #CosmicEnemies #GOTGgame pic.twitter.com/aU7mnKqwlc

As you can see, the enemies encapsulate the colourful and eccentric features you’d expect to see in the Guardians universe.  We reckon the art team must’ve had such a fun time creating these bad guys and they deserve all the praise they’re getting at the moment.

Our personal favourite has to be the monstrous Moniscuble, who looks like he’s gonna take quite a few bites out of us with those daringly long teeth.

Familiar Faces And Boss Fights

Not every extra-terrestrial life you meet out there is going to want to rip our team to shreds, with the telepathic space dog Cosmos looking to help the Guardians in this latest clip:

To be fair, who wouldn’t want to ask for help from Cosmos and his pups? Less terrifying and more cuddly than the other lot, that’s for sure.

Eidos Montreal have also confirmed that the game will feature large-scale boss fights. If those are just the standard enemies, we’re truly scared of what villains we’re going to be going up against in these.

The Guardians Of The Galaxy game is set to be released on Oct 26 and will be available on Microsoft Windows, Nintendo Switch, PS4, PS5, Xbox One and Xbox Series X/S. Check out why PC players will be getting the best out of Star-Lords adventure here!

The post Guardians Game Reveals Cosmic Enemies first appeared on Get2Gaming.

Marvel’s Guardian of the Galaxy game has got PC fans across the world rejoicing this week as they release a brand new PC tech trailer- with its enhanced graphical features giving any Guardian fan another reason to count down the days till its October 26th release.

Whilst the Marvel teams first solo game is also set to be released on the PS5 and Xbox Series X, it seems PC Gamers who boast the latest and greatest in PC hardware are going to get the best out of Star-Lord and co’s latest adventures.

PC Gamers Lucky Once More

“PC players will enjoy this stunning universe’s visuals with even higher performance”, said Olivier Proulx, senior producer at Eidos-Montréal.  The  developers really are undoubtedly throwing every graphical trick possible to get fans on board the hype train, and if this trailer is anything to go by, well it’s certainly working. Unafraid to show off and flex their muscles here, the trailer highlights resolutions going up to 8k, diffuse illumination, HDR, wide colour gamut, ray-tracing and Nvidia DLSS technology which will hope to enhance the games visuals to an unprecedented level.

"The result is always interesting when you're kicking ass while blasting Rick Astley's Never Gonna Give You Up." https://t.co/gcAJfiXZcm

The upcoming action-adventure game looks set to help capture the same whackiness of their 2014 motion picture outing which helped propel the names of Star-Lord, Gamora, Drax, Rocket and Groot into the mainstream media . With beautiful colour designs required to create such vibrant environments, Eidos Montreal are not holding back in their attempts to produce truly immersive worlds for us to explore from the third-person perspective of Peter Quill.

Marvel will hope all this will be enough to get fans back on board with their gaming adventures, with their Avengers title not quite reaching up to the expectations everyone had wished for. A divisive 68/100 PC metacritic score wasn’t what Marvel were hoping to receive, so fans will be anticipating the Guardians of the galaxy game will be able to learn from the Avengers mistakes.

Similarly, Eidos Montreal will be hoping to recreate the success of the Deus Ex titles, which supposedly serve as a major inspiration for the games campaign, with players decisions as Star-Lord impacting the outcome of the story as other guardians of the galaxy may disagree with your choices.

All in all, come October 26th Eidos Montreal will be expecting PC gamers to reiterate Rockets quote in the trailer here, as they look forward to being able to experience ‘all the wonderful and terrible things we can do with all this tech’.
