Unleash the dark side of Marvel with Midnight Suns.

Developed by Firaxis Games, best known for creating the XCOM license, Marvel’s Midnight Suns is a turn-based tactical RPG with deck-building mechanics where cards represent the different moves and abilities each Marvel hero possesses. Marvel’s Midnight Suns has been confirmed to feature cosmetic microtransactions only, and players won’t be able to purchase new cards with real money.

Marvel’s Midnight Suns is inspired by the Midnight Sons comic book series from the mid-90s, which tells the story of a group of supernatural superheroes fighting against Lilith, the mother of all demons. However, the video game adaptation is taking a different path with the comics and will feature a completely original story that will see players slip into the skin of the Hunter, a fully customizable character who must team up with experienced superheroes and dangerous supernatural warriors to defeat the demonic Lilith and her formidable horde as well as the evil Hydra armies.
