MARVEL Cosmic Invasion Set for 2024 Release on Nintendo Switch and Switch 2: New Characters Announced Nintendo Switch fans and beat 'em up enthusiasts have reason to celebrate as MARVEL Cosmic Invasion is officially slated for release on both the Nintendo Switch and the upcoming Switch 2 later this year.

Developed by renowned studios Dotemu and Tribute Games, this arcade-style action title promises cooperative gameplay reminiscent of genre classics, powered by a robust roster of Marvel fan favorites. Dotemu, known for its work on acclaimed revivals like Streets of Rage 4 and TMNT: Shredder’s Revenge, has partnered with Tribute Games to bring the dynamic world of Marvel superheroes to life in vibrant, retro-inspired combat.

Since the game's announcement, the developers have steadily built excitement with roster reveals, and the latest announcement does not disappoint. This week, a new trailer unveiled two more playable characters: Black Panther and Cosmic Ghost Rider.

According to an official announcement from the development team, King T’Challa—better known as Black Panther—joins the fray clad in his iconic vibranium suit, armed with sonic daggers and unmatched mastery of martial arts.

As the dedicated protector of Wakanda, players can expect Black Panther to combine agility, strength, and tactical prowess to subdue adversaries across cosmic battlegrounds. Cosmic Ghost Rider, another fan-favorite, enters the fight atop his signature Hell cycle.

After witnessing Annihilus’s devastating assault on the galaxy, this formidable incarnation of the Rider brings a relentless sense of justice.

Harnessing both the destructive power of hellfire and the Power Cosmic, Cosmic Ghost Rider is poised to deliver ruthless justice to intergalactic foes.

The development team describes him as a 'Spirit of Stellar Vengeance,' ensuring high-energy action for those who select this unique character. Previous reveals have included Silver Surfer and Beta Ray Bill, with the full roster expected to feature Marvel legends like Captain America, select X-Men, and Spider-Man.

The game's growing cast ensures a diverse gameplay experience that honors the legacy and breadth of the Marvel Universe. Although a specific release date has not been confirmed, MARVEL Cosmic Invasion is expected to launch later in 2024 on both the Nintendo Switch and Switch 2 platforms.

As anticipation builds, more character trailers and gameplay demonstrations are anticipated in upcoming Nintendo Direct presentations.
