Outright Games has announced that its forthcoming DC title Justice League: Cosmic Chaos will take place in an open-world setting and have co-op play. As a result, gamers will have to collaborate with friends and family to play the game. Outright Games originally teased the title during its OG Unwrapped Presentation event that occurred on May 19.
The announcement came via a trailer that Outright Games released to its YouTube account, which follows Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman as they work together to take down the new big bad villain in town Mr. Mxyzptlk. Aside from the three playable characters, other members of the Justice League will make cameo appearances, including Aquaman and The Flash.
On their mission to defeat Mr. Mxyzptlk, the trio of superheroes must fight and vanquish the numerous bad characters they will encounter. One of these characters is the mind-controlling alien, Starro the Conqueror – the giant starfish that made an appearance in the DC Studios film The Suicide Squad. Fun fact: Starro the Conqueror is one of the first villains the Justice League had to combat following their formation in the original comics.
The game’s overview on Steam reads:
Unite against chaos, in an all-new open world adventure where the Justice League go head-to-head with Mr. Mxyzptlk, a powerful prankster from the 5th Dimension. Suit up as Batman, Wonder Woman and Superman and go face off against some of the most powerful Super-Villains in the DC universe; including Bizarro, Starro the Conqueror, Clayface and many more in an epic battle to bring peace to Happy Harbor.
Justice League: Cosmic Chaos will incorporate puzzles and missions for the players, which they must complete successfully to progress and ultimately finish the game. Also, success at the puzzles and missions will let players access upgrades and change outfits in-game.
