The trailer begins with a tiny Baby Groot running from debris in slow motion. We then next encounter Rocket Raccoon. He explains we are in Chronopolis. In the comics, Chronopolis is essentially Kang's main base and home, the hub of his intertemporal empire.
A coupe of awesome detail. We see a Camelot-style castle (Kang tried to conquer Camelot once in Strange Tales #134), and a Ancient Egyptian pyramid (One of Kang's personas is Rama-Tut, a pharaoh). Nice attention to detail there. I wonder if we'll be visiting the Medieval Era and Ancient Egypt in the game. Would make sense. Time travel is Kang's thing, after all.
There's a funny bit with Rocket tossing a grenade onto a table where Enchantress, Loki, and Dr. Octopus are having tea. Rocket then asks what's the worst that could happen if one messes with the time-space continuum. As if the cosmos is saying, "This is why, Rocket!"...Hi, Ego! How ya been, buddy? Not holding any grudges against Star-Lord, I hope. Although, the way he's glaring at Rocket...maybe.
We then get a glimpse of some Spiders swinging through what appears to be a futuristic city. Spider-Gwen compliments Spidey 2099's suit, and I can't make out what the cyberpunk Spidey is saying. I think the city may be Nueva York 2099, Spidey 2099's home. As for the third Spider, I think that's Spidey Noir, another alternate Spider-Man.
We next see Baby Groot about get stomped by a...I think that may be a Sentinel. That can't be a Kree Sentry robot, the color is wrong...and Sentinels are colored purple. If it IS a Sentinel, it could hint about another possible timeline that this game could cover: Days of Future Past. Anyway, Star-Lord saves Baby Groot, and tosses the sapling into a time warp or something which causes Baby Groot to grow into his adult form. He then proceeds to stomp some mummies. Because he is Groot.
We next see more heroes fighting what I think are Kang's soldiers. And there's Hulk in his Ragnarok/Planet Hulk look. That's neat. Will we be visiting Sakaar in this game as well?
Hi, Kamala! Glad to see you're back!
Heh heh, Hawkeye shot Mysterio in the butt, and Drax tossed him around. He can't get a break.
And now Thor is calling Kang out. Kang responds, by laughing while in the form of a big cloud. Thor claims he's seen bigger. Well, he has encountered Celestials and Ego in the comics. They're pretty big. He may have a point there.
The trailer ends with a group shot of the heroes that appeared in this trailer. Nice bunch there. And I'm sure that's not all of them. There's bound to be tons more.
I can't wait for this game. It will be on my list of games to get when I get a Nintendo Switch. I'm a big fan of the Lego games, and this looks like another winner!
