The fan favorite Cartoon Network series returns in video game form and we've got gameplay footage.
The crystal gems always save the day and now they'll be doing it in the real way on consoles. That's right, this summer the fan favorite Steven Universe is becoming an RPG. Titled Steven Universe: Save The Light, this game functions as a sequel to the Steven Universe mobile game, Attack The Light.
We've got gameplay footage right here, which also features an interview with series creator Rebecca Sugar.
Sugar confirms the game will feature eight playable characters. The video confirms that Steven, Greg, Connie, Garnet and Amethyst are playable. We can assume Pearl will also be as well, which leaves two other characters to fill the gap. Lapis and Peridot would be logical choices, but we'll have to wait and see.
In Attack The Light, Steven functioned as a cheerleader (of course he did) for Garnet, Amethyst, and Pearl, giving out power-ups, and items while the Gems took on the enemies.
This time around Steven looks to be getting in on the action. As evidenced by Connie's sword, we know this game will take place at least during season two of the series.
In the background of one of the shots we see Lars and Sadie outside the big donut and in the gameplay footage we see Sour Cream and Peede so maybe others will at least show up in cameos.
Series creator Rebecca Sugar contributed an original story for the game, which should excite hardcore fans of the television series.
No word on which consoles the game is coming to or a release date. Stay tuned to Den of Geek for more and make sure to check out our Steven Universe reviews as well.
