Helmed by Square Enix subsidiary, Eidos-Montréal, the game is based on the Marvel comic book series of the same name. Players control Peter Quill as he roams the galaxy, with the help of his rag-tag team comprised of Gamora, Rocket Racoon, Groot, and Drax the Destroyer. Your companions are controlled by the game's AI, but that doesn't stop you from issuing them commands to upscale the combat.
