The game is now available for the PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Xbox Series X and Series S, and PC. The newly launched Marvel’s Midnight Suns is doing quite well in the market; many players are experiencing the Marvel’s Midnight Suns Sound Not Working or Audio Cutting Out issues on the PC during gaming sessions.

EA always offers a great sound experience in the gameplay with background noises that deliver a close-to-real scenario in terms of audio hearing. Though the game has some issues with crashing, lagging, stuttering, graphical glitches, and more, the in-game sound not working or the audio cutting out is getting too frustrating to the players. At the same time, some players claim that sound is not coming out in cutscenes.
