You can move as much as you want before you take an action. There are other ways in which Midnight Suns is different from XCOM. Wolverine has "Chain" cards that allow him to attack multiple enemies, and "Taunt" and "Lifesteal" cards do the same things they do in Hearthstone.
So there are card synergies and combos to think about here, and at least a few keyword effects to learn. One of the cards used in the demo changes the Heroism cost of a random card in a hero's hand to 0, which is also similar to a Slay the Spire play. Most Midnight Suns cards don't have a cost associated with them-each hero gets three card plays per turn-but certain cards require a resource called Heroism. Looking more closely, though, there are cards with effects such as "draw 2 cards" and "apply 2 Weak," which are things Slay the Spire cards do. It does look like it's going to feel quite different than XCOM, though, even if today's comment indicates that it hasn't leapt into the deckbuilding deep end. Midnight Suns obviously isn't completely different from XCOM, but given that two turn-based Firaxis games are pretty similar by definition, it's fair to assume that Solomon didn't mean that literally.
Solomon seems to contradict himself here: Is Midnight Suns "completely different" from XCOM, or is it not that different from XCOM? The gameplay demo streamed today wasn't comprehensive, but I think it's enough to figure out the answer for ourselves. "However, in case it is, I would understand why people would say, 'Uh, what? That's very different from anything you've done before.' I want to make sure that people understand: It doesn't play that different from things we've done before." "What could be controversial about cards? Nothing, I assume," Solomon joked. The disappointment was loud enough that Solomon referenced it in a livestream today (embedded above). Based on the YouTube comments, a number of onlookers had been expecting 'XCOM but with Marvel characters' (exactly what Solomon said Midnight Suns wouldn't be) and were skeptical that they'd like the inclusion of card game systems.
