If you're thinking to yourself, "wait, didn't this game already get a release date? And didn't you tell us about it?" Well, yes and yes. But that was for the PC version, on Steam, you see. Today, we're talking consoles!
That version came out in September, and its release date was announced only days beforehand. So it just makes sense that they would announce the release of the console version (that's Xbox, PlayStation, and Nintendo Switch) only days beforehand, too, though a few more this time. In this case, you've got just over a week to get tough, and practice your best "Yo, Joe!" for when G.I. Joe: Wrath of Cobra arrives on November 21st. Just a week before Thanksgiving!
The new trailer above gives us a roll call of the Joes' best and brightest. Well, mostly -- no General Hawk or Sgt. Slaughter or even Chief Warrant Officer Flint to be seen. But there's Duke (Duke, in command), Snake-Eyes (hand-to-hand), and Scarlet (ready to fight), squaring off against the fiercest foes Cobra Command has to throw at you, including Destro, Destro and the Baroness (but they're not practicing the clarinet here) and the king snake himself, Cobra Commander (who looks like he's embracing his inner-Shredder. Just watch. IYKYK). You can put up your Duke -- er, dukes -- in multiple modes, including Story, Arcade, and Enemy Shuffle. You can even play couch co-op with friends!
As noted above, the game has already been available on Steam for a good month and a half or so now, and is currently 20% (or more, depending on the version) off until November 19th (not an ad). There, the reviews have been... mixed. But aren't they all? More specifically, 65% of the 61 user reviews for the game are positive, according to Steam.
Here's just a little skimming of what has been said:
