2K and Firaxis Games have made the decision to delay Marvel’s Midnight Suns.
The project was announced for Switch back in August. At the time, it was originally set for a March 2022 launch. However, it will now ship sometime during the second half of 2022.
Creative director Jake Solomon and senior franchise producer Garth DeAngelis, speaking about the decision, said more time was needed “to make this the best game possible.” The team will “add more story, cinematics and overall polish” over the next few months.
Below is the full statement regarding the delay for Marvel’s Midnight Suns:
On behalf of Firaxis Games, thank you for sharing just how excited you are for Marvel’s Midnight Suns. We’ve been thrilled to see your reaction to everything from our announcement of the game to the reveal of our card-based tactical combat. Marvel’s Midnight Suns is a true dream project for the team and we can’t express what an honor it is to create something new in the Marvel Universe.
We decided to share that we’ve made the very tough decision to move our launch window to the second half of 2022. We know that many fans were looking forward to playing the game originally next spring, and this decision did not come lightly. We decided to push our launch because we need more time to make this the best game possible. 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. These extra months will be used to add more story, cinematics and overall polish and will be essential in helping us make our vision a reality.
Thank you for understanding – you are the best fans in the world.
