Marvel’s Midnight Suns Delayed To Second Half Of 2022

Firaxis has announced that its superhero strategy game, Marvel’s Midnight Suns, won’t make its March release window. It will launch in the second half of 2022, as it needs to be polished. It was impossible to provide a more precise date.

A statement from Jake Solomon, creative director of the studio was tweeted by the studio explaining why there had been a delay. Simply put, the game needs more time in the oven to come together, and four months from now won’t be enough. “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,” reads Solomon’s statement. The tweet contains the complete announcement.

Marvel’s Midnight Suns blends turn-based and deck-building gameplay with a story based on the ‘90s Midnight Sons story and team. The Hunter is a new hero, created by Marvel, Firaxis and leads an alliance of Doctor Strange and Blade as well as Wolverine and Magik against Lilith. It was featured on the cover recently of Game Informer, and you can read deep-dive articles breaking down every facet of the game’s features and development in our coverage hub.
