Guardians of the Galaxy star Dave Bautista will reprise the role of Drax in Avengers: Infinity War but before we get to see him back on the big screen, the actor has returned as the fan-favourite hero in a new promo for Marvel and FoxNext's mobile game Marvel Strike Force. We won't spoil what happens in the video below but it's really funny and makes good use of Drax's trademark deadpan humour.
If you haven't heard about the game, it pits players against Ultimus, a Kree Eternal who has big plans for Earth. In order to hold off his attack, Earth's Mightiest Heroes come together and join forces with S.T.R.I.K.E. (Strategic Tactical Reserve for Interdimensional Key Events), the British version of S.H.I.E.L.D.
In MARVEL Strike Force, ready for battle alongside allies and arch-rivals in this action-packed, visually-stunning free-to-play game for your phone or tablet. An assault on Earth has begun, and Super Heroes and Super Villains are working together to defend it! Lead the charge by assembling your ultimate squad, including Spider-Man, Doctor Strange, Groot, Rocket Raccoon, Loki, Elektra, Captain America and Iron Man, as you enter strategic combat against an all-new enemy threat. It’s time to fight! Gather your squad and prepare for the battle to save Earth!
It's surprising to hear the voice of a star from the Marvel Cinematic Universe in a promo like this but it's also a nice treat and the sort of crossover fans will appreciate.
