After hacking Marvel’s Midnight Suns social accounts earlier this week, Deadpool has finally gotten his own role in the upcoming game (even though it will be through DLC). The Marvel character will debut in the game through the Season Pass content which is set to launch after the game’s release in December.

In addition to these heroes and their respective new abilities, each of the four post-launch downloadable content packs included in the Season Pass will introduce new story missions, a new upgrade for the Abbey, and a selection of new skins and outfits.

The Season Pass also includes the Legendary Premium Pack featuring the following 23 premium skins such as Blade’s Blade 1602 skin, Captain America’s Future Soldier skin, Iron Man’s Iron Knight skin and Spider-Man’s Demon Spider skin. These skins are available right at launch.
