Marvel’s Midnight Suns is already going to be a surprise for many players. On the one hand, those who love most superhero games will have to adapt to the turn-based card battle system, and fans of tactics will have to rework their strategies. What neither group will expect are all the systems and activities that can be done in the Abbey, where you spend your time between missions.
One very important thing you need to do in the Abbey is increase your friendship level with other members of the Midnight Suns. While the system isn’t as deep or fleshed out as in a Persona or Fire Emblem game, there are tangible benefits to building a relationship with your favorite superheroes in battle. One of the best ways to get closer to these heroes is to give them gifts. If you’re struggling to figure out what to get your best friend, let alone a superhero, as a gift, here’s a complete gift guide for what each hero will appreciate the most. Marvel’s Midnight Suns.

How Gifts Work
Gifts in Marvel’s Midnight Suns work much like they do in other RPGs. These are small items you can give to heroes after encountering them to potentially increase the amount of Friendship XP you earn with them. Although it sounds simple enough, there are over 60 gifts in the game, and while no gifts will take away Friendship XP, only some will earn you the maximum amount.
How to get gifts
Gifts can be obtained in three ways. The first is to simply scrounge around the Abbey and pick them up. Just walk around and keep an eye out for all the objects you can interact with.
The second way is to buy them through the gift shop, which will unlock once you reach a certain threshold of total friendship levels. The gifts from this shop will cost you Gloss, but the gifts from the shop are much higher quality than the ones you simply find.
Finally, you can craft gifts in Agatha’s cauldron. The gifts you craft are unique, so they can only be crafted and given once, but they grant the most XP if you give them to the correct hero.
