It won’t be long before the Disney+ original series Loki returns to the streaming service for Season 2. Ahead of that, though, attendees of Disney’s Destination D23 event in Florida were able to watch the first five minutes of the Season 2 premiere. It wasn’t released online.

Marvel’s Midnight Suns’ story draws clear inspirations from the original Rise of the Midnight Sons comic book series from the 1990s in which Blade, Morbius, and Ghost Rider–among others–unite to fight against a recently resurrected Lilith and her army of demons. Developer Firaxis Games’ title, however, incorporates more faces from the current Midnight Suns series, such as Wolverine, Magik, and Nico Minoru.
