Plot: Set in the darker side of the Marvel Universe, putting you face-to-face against demonic forces of the underworld as you team up with and live among the Midnight Suns, Earth’s last line of defense.
Marvel’s Midnight’s Sons game was So Great.
Pros: I do like to choose new strategies each time to take down your enemies. I enjoyed playing as the game creative custom character called the Hunter, which does tell the main storyline. All of the friendships you made and role-play action set pieces were this game’s memorable highlights. My favourite to interact with was Tony Stark & Nico along with Magik and having the unreal engine helped add to how everything looks in the game.
Cons: Sadly I didn’t get to play as the hulk until the very end of the game. Some of the designs for the characters looked weird. Boring quick chat exchangers with the other characters.
