Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy: available on Switch 2

Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy, the third-person action-adventure game developed by Eidos-Montréal and published by Square Enix, is now available in a Nintendo Switch 2 version. It combines shooting, melee combat and dialogue, in a humorous science-fiction universe taken from Marvel comics.

You play as Star-Lord, leader of a group of very different heroes that he brought together himself. A series of catastrophic events, for which the team is partly responsible, threatens the balance of the galaxy, and Star-Lord has to keep the Guardians together long enough to stop it. The story is original: it brings together new characters and new versions of well-known Marvel figures. In combat, Star-Lord uses his elemental blasters and jet boots, and triggers duo attacks with his teammates; decisions made during the adventure have consequences later on. A compilation of 80s music accompanies the game.

This Switch 2 version contains the full game, with performance optimised for the console, improved controls and the option to play in handheld mode.

Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy has been available since 5 November 2026 for around £40 on Switch 2. Price checked at the time of writing and subject to change. The game has also been available on PS5, PS4, Xbox Series and Xbox One since 2021.
