We have long expressed the view that tactical card roleplaying game Marvel's Midnight Suns might have been tailored for too niche an audience.
Now the verdict is in. Bloomberg's Jason Schreier hails it a critical success but commercial flop and reports Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick pointing blame at timing.
A little under two months after the game's release, the first DLC for tactical card battler / superhero social sim Marvel's Midnight Suns will release on January 26.
The Deadpool DLCtrailer is titled The Good, The Bad and The Undead. Speaking of bad, there's the capitalization of the second and third the's in that title.
Reviews for survival horror The Callisto Protocol are coming in and like Gotham Knights, some major sites (Gamespot) have scored it a terrifying 5 out of 10. Its current review average on Metacritic is 74.
Horizon Forbidden West, Stray and Grounded garnered critical praise but not as much as fantasy titles Elden Ring and God of War: Ragnarok.
This week Doom Patrol is back for a fourth season, a summer of sci-fi games with Marvel's Midnight Suns and Warhammer 40K: Darktide, a look at atompunk adventure game The Invincible and rumours of Doctor Who spinoff series thanks to the Disney/BBC deal.

Firaxis have released both a combat overview trailer and a "Let's Go!" special message for their upcoming tactical roleplaying game Marvel's Midnight Suns.

Fast approaching year's end, there aren't many more big game titles on the calendar.
Two of those, Warhammer 40K: Darktide and Marvel's Midnight Suns, we've only visited occasionally. Each for occupying different extremes of the promotion spectrum.

Coming out of Disney's D23 Expo alongside a possibly brought forward to this year "coming soon" announcement for Avatar: Reckoning, is a new trailer and a December release date for tactical card strategy roleplaying game Marvel's Midnight Suns.
Apologies for being slow to catch onto this - tactical card roleplaying game Marvel's Midnight Suns has been delayed to next year.
Earlier that day we'd heaped praised on Indie superhero game Superfuse, said we were impressed by Gotham Knights but wasn't interested in Midnight Suns.
