Gaming news website Gaming Bolt had the opportunity to talk with IguanaBee; the developer behind G.I. Joe: Operation Blackout regarding the future of the game and other tidbits.

Daniel Winkler – creative director and CEO of IguanaBee stated that based on fan feedback, the team will work on expansions for the game.

“Given the game’s multiplayer component, are you considering adding more characters, weapons, maps, or modes to it after launch?

Yes! This is definitely a consideration, and we want to hear from the fans what they want to see in the game. G.I. Joe has a massive universe and lore full of characters and environments we can add to the game. We also can’t wait to hear what modes and weapons consumers want to play.”

He also mentioned the decision for a local multiplayer.

“One of the first pillars of the game was to create an awesome local multiplayer experience. Some of our best memories have been next to our friends and siblings playing games in local co-op. We felt that nothing compares to laughing alongside with your friend solving problems together and celebrating beating a level together, or bragging about beating your friend. Four players lets more people play on the same screen to maximize that multiplayer experience at home.”

IguanaBee; the developer behind G.I. Joe: Operation Blackout, sat down with the official Playstation Blog to talk about their upcoming game.

“I’m Daniel Winkler with IguanaBee and we’re the developer behind G.I. Joe: Operation Blackout. The team at IguanaBee grew up watching the animated G.I. Joe series, reading the comic books, and playing with the toys. We worked with Hasbro and Fair Play Labs to create a play experience that reimagined the third person shooter with mechanics inspired and made possible by the G.I. Joe and Cobra universe. It was an honor, and childhood dream, to work with these classic characters. We’re confident in saying G.I. Joe: Operation Blackout was made by fans for fans.”

“We always strive to define our core characters, their unique attributes/abilities and personalities through gameplay as much as possible,” says Rich Zambarano, Hasbro’s Gaming Content Manager. “Because this is a deeply story-driven gameplay experience, and I think we were able to successfully capture that depth for both the G.I. Joe and Cobra characters. I hope players and fans will greatly enjoy this aspect of the game.”

The developer also mentioned that G.I. Joe Superfans will find a special Easter-Egg on the final mission of the story mode.

Publisher Gamemill also confirmed that the game will be out tomorrow on Console (PS4, XBOX One, and Switch). No word yet regarding the PC release.

We have with us some extensive details from the upcoming video game G.I. Joe: Operations Blackout. This is not a review per se, but we’ll get to that, once we hit the official release date. Now, on to the main event.

The game consists of a story mode and several multiplayer features typical to most video games of this genre. But, this video game is not just another Third Person Shooter with a G.I. Joe coating. The game is in fact a love-letter to the fans of the franchise. Clearly, the developers are G.I. Joe fans. This is a game from fans to fans.

The story mode is NOT in two parts as earlier reported by gaming websites. It’s a mix. On one mission we play as Cobra and the another as G.I. Joe. But the story progression is linear. There are 4 difficulty settings, namely: Action Figure, Government Issue, Man Of Action, and Real American Hero.

There are total of 12 playable characters:

• Cobra: Cobra Commander, Destro, The Baroness, Zartan, Storm Shadow, and Firefly
• G.I. Joe: Duke, Scarlett, Snake Eyes, Roadblock, Sci-Fi, and Lady Jaye

NPCs include B.A.T.s, Red Ninjas, and unnamed Joe soldiers. We also have vehicle based missions.

There are 17 missions in total. We’ll keep the story details after the jump, so that we won’t accidentally spoil those who are treading the front page.

Any spoilers after this, is at reader’s fault. Don’t say that we didn’t warn you. *wink

Hasbro has applied for a new G.I. Joe digital entertainment trademark at the United States Patent & Trademark Office.

This is the first G.I. Joe Trademark to be registered after more than three years from the last one.

Back in 2017, Hasbro applied for the G.I. Joe toyline trademark (likely due to the start of the development work for the Classified Series) as well as the trademark for ‘Knowing Is Half The Battle’ tag line.

Motivation behind this trademark is easy to decipher, as we are just a week away from the release of the G.I. Joe: Operation Blackout video game.
