SDCC 2017: Our first look at Steven Universe – Save The Light

Cartoon Network offered an exclusive look at Save The Light and Steven Universe Soundtrack: Volume 1   San Diego Comic Con during the Steven Universe panel today.

The first official gameplay trailer for Save the Light, the upcoming console RPG from the imaginative world of Cartoon Network’s hit series Steven Universe, introduces Squaridot, a new game-exclusive gem, to the beloved franchise. Squaridot guards the Great North as an ally of the game’s yet-to-be-revealed main villain.

The new footage also introduces Peridot as one of the playable characters and showcases some of the fusion characters players can unleash in turn-based battles, such as Stevonnie (Steven and his friend Connie), Opal (Amethyst and Pearl) and Sardonyx (Garnet and Pearl).

Cartoon Network also invited fans to join Estelle for a one-of-a-kind sing-along experience in San Diego’s Horton Plaza on Sunday, July 23, to celebrate love, kindness, inclusion and the newly announced Steven Universe Soundtrack: Volume 1 vinyl release with a special performance of “Stronger Than You.”

Steven Universe Soundtrack: Volume 1 debuted earlier this year on the top of six Billboard charts, including the Billboard Top 200. Originally released on June 2, 2017, as a digital download album, the “Stronger Than You” 7” inch vinyl was made available as a limited edition at San Diego Comic-Con. The full soundtrack vinyl will be released later this year.
