From the Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marvel%27s_Midnight_Suns):
Marvel's Midnight Suns is a tactical role-playing game developed by Firaxis Games in collaboration with Marvel Games. It will feature comic book characters from multiple Marvel Comics properties, such as Midnight Sons, Avengers, X-Men, and Runaways. Players will be able to create their own superhero named "The Hunter" with choice of over 40 different powers.
The game was announced at the virtual Gamescom 2021 in August, and was released on December 2, 2022 for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S. Versions for PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch will launch at a later date.
Players will take the role of "The Hunter", a customizable superhero created for Midnight Suns by Firaxis Games in collaboration with Marvel.[2] The playable roster includes Iron Man, Captain America, Wolverine, Spider-Man, Venom, Morbius, Scarlet Witch, Doctor Strange, Captain Marvel, Blade, Ghost Rider, Storm, Magik, Deadpool, Hulk, and Nico Minoru. The Hunter can be male or female and customized in appearance.[2][3] Players will be able to choose The Hunter's superpowers from over 30 different abilities.[4] The game will include 13 different heroes, including The Hunter.[5] Combat will be turn-based similar to Firaxis Games' XCOM series. Between combat missions, players will be managing their upgradeable base of operations called "The Abbey" which they can walk around in a third-person view to explore the grounds and interact with other heroes.[2] Role-playing elements such as interaction with other characters will influence the gameplay and those heroes' abilities.[2] At the start of a new mission, players will be allowed to choose from three heroes to take into battle.[6] They are dealt a deck of random ability cards which they are restricted to during the mission.[6] Those abilities will affect either enemies, the player's own heroes or the environment in order to defeat enemies.[6]
Rumors that Firaxis Games, the studio responsible for the Civilization and XCOM series of turn-based tactical strategy games, was developing a Marvel Universe-based game similar to XCOM emerged in early June 2021 ahead of E3 2021. Bloomberg's Jason Schreier confirmed that such a game was in development though was not sure when it was planned for the announcement.[7]
Midnight Suns was announced during Gamescom 2021 on 25 August.[8] It was given a scheduled release date of March 2022.[4] In January 2022, Michael Jai White announced that he will be voicing Blade.[9] In June 2022, alongside the reveal of Spider-Man as a playable character in the roster, it was announced that Yuri Lowenthal would be voicing Peter Parker in the game, reprising his role from the Marvel's Spider-Man games by Insomniac Games, and Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3: The Black Order (2019).[10] Nico Minoru is voiced by Lyrica Okano, who reprises her role from the Marvel Cinematic Universe television series Runaways.[11] According to the game's lead engineer Will Miller, the game has around "65,000 lines of voiced dialogue" and "over two hours of cinematics".[12]
The game includes a tribute to Luke Wiltshire, who had died from long-term complications from neuroblastoma in November 2021 at the age of 23. Wiltshire had been told earlier that all treatment options had run out and was transitioned to end-of-life care. As part of his last wishes, he said he wanted to play Midnight Suns. The charity Solving Kids' Cancer put out a request on LinkedIn, which was seen by executives at 2K. 2K, Firaxis, and Marvel worked to create a playable build of the first act of game within 24 hours and brought it to Wiltshire to be able to play before he died.[13]
On September 1, 2021, a first gameplay trailer was released showcasing the card system used in combat.[6] Midnight Suns is directed by Jake Solomon.[2] In November 2021, it was announced that the game had been delayed until the second half of 2022. The game was reintroduced during Summer Game Fest in June 2022 with new footage, additionally confirming the October 7, 2022 launch date for all platforms excluding Nintendo Switch, and revealing the additions of Venom, Hulk, Scarlet Witch, Doctor Strange and Spider-Man to the roster of characters.[14]
