Marvel's Midnight Suns gets Spider-Man and an October release date
A new Marvel's Midnight Suns trailer debuted at Summer Game Fest, revealing a new character in Spider-Man and a release date set for October 7.
That October 7 release date applies to PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X and S, Xbox One, and PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store. The Switch version "will be available at a later date."
The trailer opens with an attack by Venom, joining the villains in wreaking havoc on the city. Naturally, Venom's traditional foe, Spider-Man, swings into the fight, confirming suspicions that he would join the roster of playable characters.
The trailer does not show any gameplay, but it does show a sleek new look for Spider-Man, as well as demonic versions of characters like Venom, Sabretooth, Scarlet Witch, and Hulk.
The trailer also shows Scarlet Witch standing among the heroes under a title card, so it looks like she'll be part of the playable roster, as well - and that matches up with recent leaks, too.
We got some hands-on time with the game recently, so check out our Marvel's Midnight Suns hands-on preview for much more information. In short, it's already looking very promising, but it won't scratch your XCOM itch for tough-as-nails, high-stakes strategy - which director Jake Solomon tells us is a very deliberate choice to build a more empowering type of strategy.
