Venom Joins The Midnight Suns Roster Next Week

2K and Marvel Entertainment have debuted a new trailer for Marvel’s Midnight Suns’ second post-launch DLC – Redemption and the addition of Venom as a playable character, which will launch next week on 23 February 2023.

Available for either standalone purchase or as part of Marvel’s Midnight Suns Season Pass (included in the Legendary Edition), each DLC brings a new recruitable hero and adds three new story missions, a new upgrade for the Abbey, and a selection of new skins and outfits for the hero. Once you recruit a hero, they’ll be added as permanent members to your roster and you can take them on missions, customize their abilities and build Friendships outside of battle throughout the game.

In Redemption, Venom – the deadly amalgam of Eddie Brock and an alien symbiote – joins the Midnight Suns as a recruitable hero to right the wrongs he committed under Lilith’s demonic influence, bringing new abilities and an insatiable appetite to chew through evildoers. Redemption includes three new story missions that continue off of the first DLC, which introduced the threat of vampires in New York City. Players will want to build Venom’s unique Research project Whisper Web, which expands the tactical options for the Intel resource.

In addition to today’s trailer reveal for Venom, Marvel’s Midnight Suns is available for 40% off for a limited time:
