Midnight Suns patch makes the superhero strategy game unplayable

16/12/2022 - I have managed to download and install the update. While my game is running fine, multiple comments on the official Steam page claim that Midnight Suns is running worse than it did before the patch, referencing lagging and freezing during loading screens. No patch notes have been released. Original story continues below.

While an unannounced Midnight Suns patch sounds like a good thing on paper, the most recent update to the superhero strategy game appears to be straight up breaking Marvel fans' games.

Midnight Suns gifts, what they do, and where to find them

Giving Midnight Suns gifts is a great way to forge alliances and raise your friendship level. Having a team that works together effectively is vital if you're planning on defeating Lilith and her army of Fallen. As your friendship level rises, so do your rewards, and, eventually, you'll be able to unlock Abbey upgrades for you and your team.

If you want to unlock the Midnight Suns costume for every hero, you're going to have to max out your friendship level with each team member. While the bulk of this is achieved by running missions together and hanging out in the Abbey, you need to utilise gifts to get the most out of your time together. The real victory in the turn-based strategy game, it turns out, is the friends you made along the way.

An Update from the Dev team

Thanks to everyone for their patience while the team continues to investigate issues that some of you have reported or may be experiencing. We will be releasing an upcoming patch that helps address some of the general performance and stutters; we'll have full details available later. In the meantime, we wanted to answer some questions we've seen about Steam Deck compatibility and related issues around Cloud Saves:

Steam Deck compatibility: Marvel's Midnight Suns does not feature optimizations for Steam Deck at the moment and is not verified for the platform. It is something we are investigating and will share further news once available.
Cloud Saves: Related to above, some users have reported issues when it comes to their cloud saves transferring across PC and Steam Deck. This is something we are investigating as part of our broader look into Steam Deck optimizations.

Thank you again for your patience – the team is working hard to make sure you have a great Marvel’s Midnight Suns experience on PC!
