Marvel Cosmic Invasion Physical Release Confirmed for Nintendo Switch 2 and Switch
Marvel Cosmic Invasion, the hotly anticipated beat 'em up from acclaimed developers Dotemu and Tribute Games, is gearing up for a major launch on both Nintendo Switch 2 and Nintendo Switch.
While the title was already slated for a digital-only debut this December, it has now been officially confirmed that both platforms will also receive physical editions.
Retailers will begin offering these versions starting March 13, 2026, giving collective fans and physical game collectors alike a reason to celebrate.

Marvel Cosmic Invasion throws players into an epic galactic conflict, as the immortal supervillain Annihilus launches a devastating assault across the cosmos.
With Earth’s mightiest heroes and cosmic defenders uniting, players will journey from the iconic streets of New York City to the mysterious depths of the Negative Zone to thwart Annihilus, joined by infamous allies such as Thanos, M.O.D.O.K, and Taskmaster.

The innovative Cosmic Swap system allows players to control two characters simultaneously, seamlessly switching between them mid-battle to capitalize on powerful combinations and special attacks. Marvel Cosmic Invasion also places a strong emphasis on accessibility, ensuring that superheroes and supervillains of all ages and abilities can team up thanks to a suite of accessibility features.
The game supports drop-in/drop-out local and online co-op multiplayer for up to four players, as well as crossplay functionality, enhancing its appeal for cooperative action fans. For the physical edition, Marvel Cosmic Invasion will be distributed as both a standard and a Deluxe Edition.
The standard release is priced at $40 for Nintendo Switch and $50 for the enhanced Nintendo Switch 2 version, with the latter containing the full game on the cartridge.
The Deluxe Edition, offered at $60 on Switch and $70 on Switch 2, includes a steelbook case, premium art cards, sticker sheets, a poster featuring the main cast, and a collectible art box—making it a comprehensive package for dedicated Marvel enthusiasts. This new announcement reinforces Dotemu and Tribute Games’ reputation for blending nostalgia with innovation, crafting titles that appeal to both veteran gamers and newcomers alike.
Marvel Cosmic Invasion is set to deliver arcade-inspired action, evocative of classic Marvel comic book designs, with modern enhancements suited for today’s Nintendo hardware.
