The creators managed to flesh out some of the film’s best scenes, repackaging them into the arcade gaming format. All the gang including Star-Lord, Gamora, Drax, Groot and Rocket are side-walking about to the catchy 70s soundtrack, which features on Peter Quill’s mixtape throughout the film.
While the arcade reimagining may not contain the same big-budget special effects, it certainly begs the question: why haven’t the gaming powers that be released a Guardians of the Galaxy video game?
With plenty of memorable action scenes and laugh-out-loud moments, the 8-bit remake definitely shows potential in the franchise transferring to gaming. Even the film’s director agrees, with James Gunn writing in the YouTube comments: "I love it."
