Marvel’s Midnight Suns stands out for its innovative combat system, which combines tactical RPG strategies with card mechanics. Players need to form their teams and use their decks to determine actions during battles. This requires strategic thinking between turns to avoid making wrong decisions.

Loved by Critics but Faced Launch Challenges
![The critical acclaim did not save Marvel's Midnight Sun from flopping](https://fwmedia.fandomwire.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/07114101/Marvel_s_Midnight_Suns_-_Screenshot_-_The_Scarlet_Witch-1024x576.jpg)
Despite being critically acclaimed, Marvel’s Midnight Suns faced some challenges at launch, failing to achieve the expected commercial success. One of the main factors contributing to this was the high initial price, along with some players’ resistance to the card-based combat system, which deviated from the typical action-packed Marvel games.
However, time has proven to be an ally for Marvel’s Midnight Suns. With the addition of new content and minor adjustments, player perception began to change. More people gave the game a chance and appreciated its unique mechanics and narrative depth.
Now, with the free offer on the Epic Games Store, more players will have the opportunity to discover and enjoy Marvel’s Midnight Suns. This is an excellent opportunity for those who haven’t tried the game yet to dive into the world of Marvel heroes and face the demonic forces of Lilith and Chthon.
