Marvel's Midnight Suns Trailer Reveals October Release Date, New Heroes, And Special Editions

Today’s Summer Game Fest livestream provided a new look at Marvel’s Midnight Suns, Firaxis' upcoming superhero RPG, including a release date and two new playable heroes. 

Marvel’s Midnight Suns swings to stores on October 7, and a new cinematic trailer pulled the curtain back on Spider-Man (voiced by Yuri Lowenthal) and Scarlet Witch. These fan-favorite heroes join the likes of Ghost Rider, Captain America, and Magik to battle Lilith, Mother of all Demons. Not to be outdone by our do-gooders, the trailer also revealed Lilith's line-up of corrupted antagonists: Venom, Sabertooth, Hulk, and interestingly, Scarlet Witch again. 

Firaxis also laid out four different versions of the game, each offering its own batch of goodies. They are:

Standard Edition ($59.99): PS4, Xbox One, and PC base game.  

Enhanced Edition ($69.99): PS5 and Xbox Series X/S version that includes five premium skins.

Digital+ Edition ($79.99): Available on all platforms and includes 11 premium skins. 

Legendary Edition ($99.99): Available on all platforms and includes 23 premium cosmetic skins plus a post-launch season pass. 

Marvel’s Midnight Suns will be available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. Firaxis plans to launch a Switch version at a later date.
