Capes is a turn-based superhero tactics game set in a world where the villains have already won. We've had our eye on this one for a little while now, as it looks like it could be quite special. Here's hoping it won't be received as tragically as Firaxis' excellent Marvel's Midnight Suns when it hits on 29th May on PS5 and PS4.
In this latest look at the game, we learn a little more about the mission at hand. Set in King City, Capes will task players with building a team of superheroes capable of fighting back across a series of campaign and patrol missions. All kinds of wonderful logistical decisions will need to be made along the way, and exploring side missions will allow the unlocking of more heroes, skill points, and additional backstories.
What do you think of Capes? Where were you when Marvel's Midnight Suns needed you most? Let us know in the comments section below.

Yo this ***** looks awesome how did I miss hearing about this. I’m def getting it day one as long as it runs well
Does look pretty interesting. Hoping for a review.
On a separate note, could the Push Square team consider not capitalizing every word in headlines please? It may just be me but it takes me far longer than it should to work out the titles of games unknown to me due to the headline formatting. It is also not pleasing to the eye and mind on the main page. Thanks.
Midnight suns is an underrated gem so I’m looking forward to seeing how this turns out
@underthegun I think this about twelve times a day. It's crazy that entertainment and tech sites haven't worked this out yet. The Verge is the only one I read daily that is on board
If it's fun and isn't hampered by something stupid like relationship building... I'll check it out
Looks like it could be a solid tactics game, just wish it wasn't so drab looking.
Really interested in this. I actually very much enjoyed Midnight Suns too. Love me some turn-base shenanigans...
This looks fun, and by Daedalic too.
I'm a big fan of this style of game, but the character designs here are incredibly bland. They don't give great superhero vibes, and considering the name of the game, there was a complete absence of capes in this trailer. My XCOM squad looked more like a superhero team than the characters here. Hopefully characters will have customizable looks.
I think I might buy it.
Definitely interested in this one. Loved Midnight Suns.
This looks like what I originally thought Midnight Suns was going to be closer to Xcom/Phoenix Point. Basically not having the card mechanic.
