Firaxis tactical RPG ‘Marvel’s Midnight Suns’ may be releasing soon

Firaxis has been working away on its Marvel-based tactical RPG, Midnight Suns, for a few years now. After announcing the game in August 2021 with a March 2022 release date, the game was quickly delayed to later in the year. Now, all signs are pointing towards the game launching soon. 

As spotted by Final Weapon, recently, Marvel's Midnight Suns has been rated in South Korea, as well as in Australia. Usually, these ratings board leaks occur within a month or so of a major announcement, meaning we may be able to expect Midnight Suns at Summer Games Fest next month.

Marvel's Midnight Suns will still be turn based, but rather than having an action bar for each hero, there is a card-based battle system. At the start of a combat scenario, you are dealt a hand of cards containing abilities for your heroes, from there it is up to you to use those abilities wisely to beat the mission. There will be a hub area where all of your superheroes can interact with each other, and Firaxis has previously confirmed plans for an in-game social system.

Marvel's Midnight Suns is currently expected to release this year, and we should get an official update on the game in June.

KitGuru Says: It has been years since XCOM 2 and Fire Emblem: Three Houses, so I've been itching for a new strategy RPG for a while. Will many of you be picking this up later in the year?

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
