Firaxis Games, the team behind the XCOM and Civilization franchises, will release Marvel's Midnight Suns next year. Featuring tactical, turn-based gameplay, the game will feature a new combat system and a story mode that will see players interact with other heroes from the Marvel Universe.
Between missions, you'll head to The Abbey. There, you can explore your surroundings in third-person, talking to your fellow superheroes through extensive dialogue trees and choosing who to add to your team. Teammates include Blade, Doctor Strange, Captain America, Iron Man, Captain Marvel, Magik, Ghost Rider, Wolverine, Captain Marvel, and Nico Minoru (with more to be revealed).

That looks pretty badass, right? While the gameplay mechanic is unlikely to appeal to anyone who isn't into games with playing card/deck-based combat, it's fair to say it still has some potential.
Hopefully, more will be revealed soon, but this does actually look better than Marvel's Avengers!
"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," reads the official synopsis for Midnight Suns. "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."
Marvel's Midnight Suns is set to be released on March 2022 for PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and PC. Stay tuned to GameFragger.com for additional updates!
