Limited Run Games, in partnership with Marvel and Konami, is set to bring a nostalgic wave to the Nintendo Switch and multiple platforms with the upcoming release of the Marvel Maximum Collection.
The highly anticipated collection, which unites six of Marvel's classic arcade and console games, will be available digitally starting on March 27, 2026.
Coinciding with the digital launch, fans will also be able to pre-order the physical edition of the collection for Nintendo Switch and additional systems on the same date. Announced last month, the Marvel Maximum Collection showcases a collaborative effort between gaming legends and one of the most iconic entertainment brands.
During a headline announcement at the Game Developers Conference (GDC), Limited Run Games revealed key details: the physical Nintendo Switch edition will be packaged with collector-friendly extras, including a foil cover sheet, an instruction manual, and a sprites sticker sheet—providing added value for fans and physical media enthusiasts. The Marvel Maximum Collection is set to include six beloved titles from the Marvel and Konami vaults: - X-Men: The Arcade Game (featuring rollback netcode) - Captain America and The Avengers - Spider-Man/Venom: Maximum Carnage - Venom/Spider-Man: Separation Anxiety - Spider-Man/X-Men: Arcade's Revenge - Silver Surfer Each title in the collection is presented with enhancements designed to appeal to modern audiences, including a newly integrated rewind feature, save state functionality, and multiple display options.
Notably, X-Men: The Arcade Game will support rollback netcode, streamlining online multiplayer for a smoother, arcade-accurate experience. A spokesperson from Limited Run Games emphasized the company's ongoing mission to preserve and celebrate video game history, noting that this collection represents an important collaboration with both Marvel and Konami.
The representative said the project aims to deliver timeless titles to a new generation while honoring their legacy on platforms like the Nintendo Switch. The Marvel Maximum Collection continues the trend of high-quality retro reissues by Limited Run Games, whose previous collaborations have found strong support within the gaming community.
With classic side-scrolling action games and arcade favorites included, this compilation is poised to be a major addition to any Nintendo Switch owner's library or to retro collectors seeking physical editions. Physical pre-orders for the Marvel Maximum Collection, alongside digital availability via the Nintendo eShop, open on March 27, 2026.
