Marvel Cosmic Invasion Expands Roster: Silver Surfer and Beta Ray Bill Announced for Nintendo Switch 2

Marvel Cosmic Invasion, the latest superhero brawler set within the Marvel universe, has confirmed the addition of two beloved cosmic characters to its playable roster.

Announced during a highly-anticipated panel at Comic-Con, Silver Surfer and Beta Ray Bill will be joining the game, further expanding the lineup ahead of its slated release for Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2 in 2025. Silver Surfer, a legendary figure in Marvel’s cosmic lore, brings his distinctive abilities to Marvel Cosmic Invasion.

Known for his sleek, metallic appearance and his origins in the Fantastic Four comic series, Silver Surfer wields the renowned Power Cosmic.

This grants him formidable strength and the ability to immobilize adversaries with powerful energy attacks.

Silver Surfer’s skills allow him to soar effortlessly through the skies as well as skim close to the ground, making him a relentless force against enemies, including the persistent insectoid invaders featured in the game’s storyline. Also joining the roster is Beta Ray Bill, a long-time fan favorite within the Marvel community and a character recognized for his close ties to Thor.

Beta Ray Bill is half-cyborg, half-Korbinite, and possesses immense strength.

Armed with his own unique weapon, the mystical hammer known as Stormbreaker, Beta Ray Bill is poised to deliver high-impact melee combat and offer strategic variety on the battlefield.

In the canon, he’s been acknowledged by Thor himself as a trusted ally, cementing his status as a mainstay among Marvel’s heroic lineup. During the Comic-Con presentation, event organizers showcased a new character reveal trailer, offering the first in-game look at Silver Surfer and Beta Ray Bill in action.

While the trailer previewed their signature abilities and highlighted dynamic gameplay footage, it also underscored the studio’s commitment to delivering an authentic Marvel experience optimally tuned for Nintendo Switch hardware.

The presentation builds on earlier reveals, including the lineup announcement of Rocket Raccoon and She-Hulk, assuring fans of a diverse and expansive roster. Marvel Cosmic Invasion is scheduled to launch on both Nintendo Switch 2 and the current Nintendo Switch platform in 2025.

The game aims to capture the essence of Marvel’s interstellar action, bringing together iconic heroes and villains for explosive multiplayer battles.

Developed for the Nintendo ecosystem, the game will be available digitally via the eShop, supporting both solo and co-op experiences. For gamers and Marvel enthusiasts eager to stay updated, Marvel Cosmic Invasion’s official channels and Nintendo Direct presentations will continue to offer the latest news, additional character reveals, and gameplay trailers leading up to launch.
