Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy’s Surprise Switch 2 Port Has Some Fans Hoping for a Sequel

Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy has re-emerged, five years after its release, with a new Switch 2 version… and some fans hope it could lead to a sequel.

During today’s Nintendo Direct, fans were surprised to learn that Eidos Montreal’s Guardians of the Galaxy game is coming back. It’s getting a new “Encore Edition,” exclusive to Nintendo Switch 2, which not only brings the game to a new platform, but also adds new content like special outfits for the cosmic heroes. This news came as a bit of a shock, since the game missed sales expectations despite having great reviews, so fans assumed that we’d never see this iteration of the Guardians ever again.

Now, this new release has some hoping that the Guardians may live on. Over on social media, excited fans are pleading to Marvel and Eidos Montreal to produce a sequel. Maybe a Switch 2 version could be used to test the waters, but it’s hard to say. Either way, it’s great to see such a beloved game finding its way back into the market, and hopefully, it can create some demand for another entry in the series.
