Epic Games Store Next Free Game Is Rumored To Be Marvel's Midnight Suns

It has been almost two years since Firaxis Games released their tactical RPG Marvel's Midnight Suns, which received favorable reviews at launch. The studio has since released four DLCs centered on the characters Deadpool, Venom, Morbius, and the mutant Storm, expanding the game's narrative.

While the studio subsequently canceled a Nintendo Switch port, players who have yet to experience this new take on a superhero game as it's been speculated that it's heading to the Epic Games Store this month. This was rumored by a reliable leaker who speculated in an online report that Marvel's Midnight Suns might be the "final Mystery [Free] Game" coming soon to Epic's digital storefront.

Epic Games' latest promotion, the MEGA Sale, has seen plenty of deals go live, "amazing discounts," giveaways galore, and free games to grab. Over the last three weeks, players could grab Dragon Age: Inquisition — Game of the Year Edition, Farming Simulator 22, and Chivalry II for free for a limited time, and recently, the fourth and final free game was reportedly revealed.

According to an article for Dealabs Magazine, reliable leaker billbil-kun has speculated that Firaxis Games' tactical RPG Marvel's Midnight Suns is the last free game to be available during the MEGA Sale. They further added that Marvel's Midnight Suns is to be available as a standard edition, claiming that it will be free to claim between 6th and 13th June 2024.

As of this writing, it has yet to be determined and confirmed whether this reporting is accurate; however, the leaker has accurately reported on the previous free Mystery games mentioned above. While we suggest that players react cautiously to the abovementioned information, we will continue to follow this story and update them with the latest news and developments.

Marvel's Midnight Suns follows the journey of a new character, the Hunter, who has been summoned to help the famed superhero ensemble, the Midnight Suns, defeat Lilith and her forces. In our review of Marvel's Midnight Suns, we were "impressed with Firaxis' approach to handling a Marvel game," praising the refreshed approach to a global IP,  its mainstay turn-based combat system, which blends with its unique card mechanics, and its character development through its narrative, social features, and combat skills.
