Marvel’s Midnight Suns video game: combat overview trailer and prequel shorts are now online

Once expected to be released in March of this year, the long-awaited video game Marvel’s Midnight Suns will finally be reaching PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and PC this Friday, December 2nd (with PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch releases also coming at some point down the line), and in anticipation of the game’s release a new trailer has arrived online. This one gives a combat overview, and can be seen at the bottom of this article. Marvel’s Midnight Suns is also being marketed with a series of prequel shorts that you can watch over on YouTube.

A tactical role-playing game, Marvel’s Midnight Suns has the following description: The world as we know it is changed forever when Hydra, through a procedure of magic and science, manages to revive Lilith, Mother of Demons. In an effort to prevent Lilith from spreading her armies across the world, destroying everything in her path, The Avengers enlist the Midnight Suns to assist in their battle. This team of supernaturally powered heroes will need to work with the likes of Captain America, Iron-Man and Captain Marvel if they want to stop Lilith from resurrected Chthon, her all-powerful master.

However, the powers of The Avengers and the Midnight Suns won’t be enough. Only the Hunter, the child of Lilith, is capable of slaying the Mother of Demons. This original character will be the player’s window into the world of Marvel’s Midnight Suns. Creating the Hunter from scratch, players will need to use their ancient abilities to gather and control their team, issuing commands on the battlefield and forging bonds during downtime, all in an effort to smite their evil mother.

Players will be able to design the Hunter “however they see fit”, from appearance to their variety of skills. Creative director Jake Solomon has said there are twelve Marvel heroes in the game, including Ghost Rider, Blade, Doctor Strange, Captain America, Iron Man, Wolverine, Magik, Captain Marvel, and Nico Minoru.

Marvel’s Midnight Suns is inspired by an awesome run of Marvel comics from the early 1990s. Check out the trailer embedded below, then let us know what you thought of it by leaving a comment. Will you be playing this game?
