Gamers and Marvel fans alike have been clamoring for a physical edition of the upcoming 2D beat’em up, Marvel Cosmic Invasion, since it was first announced earlier this year.
Great news, True Believers! Dotemu, Marvel Games, and Tribute Games have proudly announced that MCI will be getting a copy that you can add to your shelf in 2026, that is.
So, while the digital edition will go live on December 1st for the Nintendo Switch/Switch 2, Xbox Series S/X, PC, and PS5, you’re going to have to wait a few months for it on March 13th, 2026. This seems to be a trend these days, with the rise of digital downloads across all platforms.
If you’re patient enough to wait until then (or want to double deep!), here’s you’ll be able to get the standard edition for $39.99 OR the Deluxe edition for $59.99, which will include:
- A physical copy of MARVEL Cosmic Invasion and a special Deluxe Edition box
- A premium SteelBook case featuring a striking, hand-drawn illustration of the game’s playable roster and the menacing villain central to MARVEL Cosmic Invasion, Annihilus
- A 21.38 x 13.31″ poster celebrating MARVEL Cosmic Invasion’s main cast
- 15 5.32 x 6.69″ exclusive art cards, each spotlighting a starring fighter from MARVEL Cosmic Invasion and a snapshot of their incredible powers with holographic effects
- Sticker sheets spanning the game’s 15-fighter playable roster, allowing MARVEL Cosmic Invasion’s heroes to keep watch for Annihilus from any lookout points they’re adhered to
Pretty flippin’ snazzy, if I do say so myself! If you missed it, the team behind the game has been dropping some dev diaries discussing the behind-the-scenes of the upcoming game. The most recent focuses on the gameplay of the game and how they’re working on pushing the 2D beat’em up genre even further.
Get ready, True Believers, as Marvel Cosmic Invasion releases digitally on December 1st!
