After having previously encountered Venom as a Fallen villain in Marvel’s Midnight Suns it seemed fairly obvious how the character would be approached as a playable hero. However, much of his gameplay design as a boss seems to revolve around the use of Bind and the status effect Symbiote Skin, though Bind is only a minor mechanic of the playable character’s design if players want it to be, while Symbiote Skin is left to his boss iteration. Thankfully, there are some interesting changes to this design that also reflect how different Marvel's Midnight Suns' Venom is once he is free from Lilith’s spell.
