MARVEL's Midnight Suns, Firaxis Games‘ XCOM-like MARVEL game, gets its release date delayed to the latter half of 2022.
Revealed at Gamescom 2021, Midnight Suns‘ release date was originally set for March 2022. Now, after the announcement of its delay, the release date is now on an unspecified date on the second half of 2022.
The delay was announced through the Midnight Suns Twitter account. In a joint statement, Creative Director Jake Solomon and Senior Franchise Producer Garth DeAngelis says, “We decided to push our launch because we need more time to make this the best game possible.” The statement described Midnight Suns as a “true dream project.”
“These extra months will be used to add more story, cinematics, and overall polish and will be essential in helping us make our vision a reality.”
The game’s story is inspired by Midnight Sons Unlimited comic series, featuring both mainstay characters as well as lesser-known, more obscure heroes and villains, which might mean that we'll get a very wide cast of characters in the final game. In Midnight Suns, the player takes the role of “The Hunter,” a customizable original character made specifically for the game. Other confirmed playable characters for the game are Iron Man, Captain America, Wolverine, Doctor Strange, Captain Marvel, Blade, Ghost Rider, Magik, and Nico Minoru.
