During today’s Nintendo Switch stream, Dotemu and Tribute Games announced their new arcade-style beat-’em-up Marvel Cosmic Invasion, which will be released for consoles and PC later this year. After doing phenomenal work on TMNT: Shredder’s Revenge, both studios are teaming up to give Marvel fans a special treat. The reveal trailer is embedded above, while more details are included below.
In MARVEL Cosmic Invasion, the immortal Super Villain Annihilus has launched an unprecedented attack across the galaxy, threatening all life as we know it. Fighters, both Earth-born and cosmic, must now join forces in a star-spanning adventure against the deadly Annihilation Wave. Brawl through the streets of New York City to the depths of the Negative Zone to foil Annihilus’ vow to spread death across the cosmos.
Choose and control your team of two characters while tagging between them mid-fight with the innovative Cosmic Swap system, capitalizing on distinct superpowers and special attacks to create unique team-ups and dish out devastating damage! Unlock stellar power-ups and rewards while experimenting with different duos and bash through a fantastic collection of locales and nemeses from the MARVEL universe. MARVEL Cosmic Invasion’s action includes a range of accessibility features, empowering the whole family to be Super Heroes (or villains), and supports four-player drop-in/drop-out local and online co-op with crossplay.
After setting the bar for arcade-inspired beat ‘em ups with the acclaimed, multimillion-selling smash hit Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge, Dotemu and Tribute Games modernize the timeless fun of brawlers with exciting tag-team fighting and a multi-era celebration of the most iconic comic book universe in MARVEL Cosmic Invasion. A masterful pixel art style perfectly embodies the spirit of classic MARVEL character designs, resulting in thrilling action that’d look right at home in an arcade cabinet. More screenshots are included below.
Stay tuned for more details on Marvel Cosmic Invasion before it launches later this year.
