Marvel’s Midnight Suns Cuts Price to €10.49 on PS5

Five years after launch, Marvel’s Midnight Suns is finally getting the kind of spotlight it deserves, with a steep discount on PlayStation Store that drops the standard PS4/PS5 price from €69.99 to €10.49. For players gearing up for what comes next in Marvel gaming, this is a strong chance to try a tactical superhero RPG that blends accessible turn-based combat, heavy card-based strategy, and a surprisingly social base-building hub.

What Marvel’s Midnight Suns is (and what makes it different)

Marvel’s Midnight Suns is a turn-based tactical RPG that takes a different approach than the classic XCOM-style probability model. Instead of relying on random stat rolls, battles revolve around playing skill cards, making combat feel more readable and dynamic.

In closed arenas, the game pushes you to actively use the environment—with combat interactions designed to help you knock foes back and hit them hard through positioning.

It also stands out for a major social component inside the Abbey: an explorable headquarters where you spend free time in third-person, chatting and building friendships with other heroes. Those relationships help improve their abilities.

Story basics: Hunter, Hydra, and Lilith

The narrative centers on an unexpected alliance between the Avengers and supernatural-aligned vigilantes as they face Lilith, a demon mother figure revived by Hydra.

You play as Hunter, an original protagonist who is revealed as Lilith’s child—brought back because Hunter was the only person who had killed her three hundred years earlier. The campaign repeatedly pulls in iconic Marvel characters, including enemies corrupted by magic such as Venom and Sabre-tooth.

Why the game is considered underrated

Midnight Suns is praised for its tactical combat that’s both accessible and rewarding. The card-based approach is designed to keep fights intuitive while still giving room for smart planning.

Visually and mechanically, battles also emphasize spectacle—with animations that encourage you to play aggressively and use the arena to your advantage.

Beyond combat, it leans hard into the Marvel universe, with a large roster crossing the Avengers, X-Men, and supernatural figures, while the Abbey’s downtime supports a steady rhythm of character interaction and humor reminiscent of the MCU tone.

That said, the overall pacing can be a turn-off: the game is described as having a very slow rhythm in both animation flow and decision-making, and it can feel overly talkative at times, with some staging and facial animations noted as dated. Even so, the core experience is presented as successful—rich for tactical fans while still approachable for newcomers.
