Created by Firaxis Games, the legendary studio behind the critically-acclaimed, world-renowned XCOM and Civilization franchises, Marvel's Midnight Suns combines the rich story, character relationships, customization, and progression of an RPG with the tactical strategy and combat mechanics of a revolutionary new card-based tactics game.

Marvel’s Midnight Suns launched to critical acclaim, with VGC awarding it at 5 out of 5, calling it a “ modern strategy classic;” PC Gamer said it was “completely brilliant” and scored it an 88 out of 100, and Rock Paper Shotgun called it “ one of the best super hero games full stop.”

"The Firaxis team has created a remarkable game in Marvel's Midnight Suns, " said Jay Ong, Executive Vice President at Marvel Games. "Marvel authenticity and love for our characters permeates every battle, decision, and interaction. It’s a dream come true for any Marvel fan who ever fantasized of being able to not just fight alongside legendary Marvel heroes, but to live among them as well."

"We’re thrilled to have Marvel trust us with their universe to create something brand new in Marvel’s Midnight Suns," said David Ismailer, President at 2K. "This game represents some of Firaxis' finest and most ambitious work yet, and we are excited for players around the world to experience Marvel's Midnight Suns."

Set in the darker side of the Marvel Universe, players will forge unbreakable bonds with legendary Marvel Super Heroes and dangerous supernatural warriors in the fight against the world’s greatest threat yet…the demonic forces of Lilith and the elder god Chthon.

“From the explosive action of the battlefield to the unfolding mysteries of the Abbey, we are so excited for players to explore the darker side of the Marvel Universe,” said Bill Rosemann, VP & Creative Director, Marvel Games. “Firaxis dug deep into the Marvel Vault, chose to spotlight characters that they truly love, and poured their hearts into expertly delivering their vision of the rising stars that are the Midnight Suns.”

"I can't overstate how excited we are to finally bring Marvel's Midnight Suns to our fans, whether you are a hardcore Marvel comics reader or a longtime tactics veteran," stated Jake Solomon, Creative Director at Firaxis Games for Marvel's Midnight Suns. "Thank you to everyone who has joined us on our journey to bring this game to life."
