Today, 2K and Firaxis Games unveiled the new release date for the XCOM-like game Marvel’s Midnight Suns. Originally scheduled to hit physical and digital stores in March, it’ll now be available on October 7th (the recent rumor mentioned October 6th, so it was pretty much spot-on), and pre-orders are now available.

- The Digital+ Edition will be available for $79.99* on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and Windows PC via Steam and Epic Games Store. It includes 11 premium cosmetic skins. PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S SKUs include the next-gen optimized version of the game for next-gen consoles;
