"Deserves a sequel": Guardians of the Galaxy gameplay praised by Xbox Game Pass users

Not long after it was announced that Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy sold below Square Enix's expectations, we also learned that that the game would be coming to Xbox Game Pass, barely four months post-release. While the reason for the decision is apparent, the game's addition to the service has breathed fresh life into it.Users have already stated why the game is a must-play on the service. As a likely result of the sudden praise being heaped on the title, it currently sits in sixth spot among the most popular games on the Xbox Game Pass.Benji-Sales@BenjiSalesGuardians of the Galaxy has entered the Top 5 Most Popular Games on Game Pass on ConsoleLove to see it.

One of the suprises of last year.Square Enix's previous title, The Avengers, was not just very poorly received by gamers but its microtransaction-driven gameplay rubbed a lot of players the wrong way. With that in mind, @TheGreatZamboni correctly noted that sales of Guardians of the Galaxy were likely affected by wary consumers.They even went as far as to say that the game reminded them of their favorite title from the past: Marvel Ultimate Alliance.TheGreatZamboni@TheGreatZambon1@BenjiSales Glad to see it's doing well. I bought the game shortly after launch and it's really good, kinda reminded me of Marvel Ultimate Alliance mixed with a third person shooter. I'm guessing a lot of people skipped it because of the Avengers game.12:59 PM · Mar 16, 2022@BenjiSales Glad to see it's doing well.

However, the quality was always there, as stated by the above users. The better accessibility of the Xbox Game Pass will now allow the game to get the recognition and reach that many fans feel it rightfully deserves.
