Dotemu and Tribute Games have launched the first downloadable content pack for Marvel Cosmic Invasion, introducing two high-profile Marvel characters—The Thing and Cyclops—on Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2.
The DLC arrives as the developers expand the game's roster and post-launch support, with a trailer released to showcase each character’s abilities and combat style.
Developer announcement (rewritten): Dotemu and Tribute Games confirmed that the initial DLC pack adds The Thing and Cyclops to Marvel Cosmic Invasion, and that the new content is available now on both Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2.
The teams also stated a second DLC installment is confirmed for Fall 2026 and will introduce a new game mode alongside additional playable characters.
What The Thing brings to Marvel Cosmic Invasion
The Thing enters the game as a grappling-focused powerhouse.
According to the developer notes, his cosmic-radiation strength translates into tanklike durability and crowd-control tools, while surprising mobility allows him to bounce across environments to engage enemies quickly.
Developers position The Thing as a frontline protector who can anchor teams with high survivability and area control.
What Cyclops offers players
Cyclops is described as a high-demand addition requested by fans and arrives ready to handle both ground and aerial threats.
His signature optic blasts work as focused kinetic energy attacks; developers highlighted that Cyclops can fire diagonally to better counter airborne opponents and create openings for team combos.
