Getting started: five useful tips

  • Scan areas before leaving: resources and secondary paths are often placed just off the main route.
  • Use the right Guardian: Drax stuns, Gamora deals heavy damage, Groot immobilizes enemies and Rocket controls groups.
  • Save your units: purchases on Knowhere can prevent you from paying the fine in Chapter 9.
  • Listen to the dialogue: some important choices are buried in an ordinary conversation.
  • Keep a main save: chapter select lets you retrieve missed outfits. New Game+ is required to equip outfits unlocked after finishing the game and complete Fashion Passion.

Which choices really have consequences?

Most responses only change the next line of dialogue. Lasting decisions notably involve Nikki, the llama or Rocket's equipment, selling Groot or Rocket, the Worldmind, Cosmo and paying the fine. Our complete guide to choices and consequences clearly distinguishes major decisions from simple dialogue variations.

Guardian outfits, archives and items

Hidden items are divided between outfits, archives, Guardian collectibles and entries in the Galactic Compendium. The outfit and collectible checklist lists the relevant chapters, the Chapter 4 branches and the points of no return.
