Titles that are available for the Switch, like Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy, are only available as cloud versions, meaning players need to keep an uninterrupted internet connection to successfully play them on their Nintendo consoles. Many of these Marvel games boast 4K graphics that even the Nintendo Switch OLED model can't technically handle, which is often why these games are not created with the Switch in mind. Despite all of that, though, it seems that Marvel Midnight Suns will be available for the Nintendo Switch upon its release. At this time, there is no word on whether it will be a cloud version of the game or not, though more information will likely be available closer to the game's release date. Marvel Midnight Suns will be available for Xbox One, Xbox Series S/X, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch, and PC on Oct. 7.AdvertisementMore from Distractify Two New Marvel Video Games Have Been Confirmed — All of the Upcoming Titles Can You Play as Spider-Man in the New 'Avengers' Game The New 'Marvel Avengers' Game Introduces Monica and A.I.M. as the Supervillains Latest Marvel News and UpdatesAdvertisementABOUT DistractifyAbout UsPrivacy PolicyTerms of UseDMCASitemapCONNECT with DistractifyLink to Facebook Link to TwitterLink to InstagramContact us by Email Copyright 2022 Distractify.
