Firaxis Games delays 'Marvel's Midnight Suns' to late 2022

Marvel’s Midnight Suns  is delayed to late 2022, as Firaxis Games needs a bit more development time.

“We decided to share that we’ve made the very tough decision to move our launch window to the second half of 2022,” Firaxis said on Twitter. “We know many fans were looking forward to playing the game originally next spring, and this decision did not come lightly.”

Fixaxis stated that it wants Marvel’s Midnight Suns  to be as good as it possibly can be and that extra time in the proverbial cooker will help them meet expectations. 

“We believe in our creative vision for Marvel’s Midnight Suns  and want to do justice in delivering an unforgettable adventure set in the supernatural side of Marvel,” Firaxis explains. “These extra months will be used to add more story, cinematics and overall polish and will be essential in helping us make out vision a reality.”

There’s a ton of hype for Marvel’s Midnight Suns, especially since Firaxis is behind classics like XCOM: Enemy Unknown  and Civilization IV. So a tactical RPG with a Marvel veneer is a perfect fit for that studio. Hopefully, it won’t end up like Marvel’s Avengers, which had to  apologize for paid consumables  on Tuesday.

We’ll find out if Marvel’s Midnight Suns fares better when it comes out for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S and PC in 2022.
