Dotemu is once again teaming up with Tribute Games, the team behind Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge, to work on a sidescrolling Marvel beat ’em up – Marvel Cosmic Invasion.
Nintendo might be about to have its all-time biggest showcase next week, where it’ll properly reveal the Switch 2 like we’ve all been waiting for, but that hasn’t stopped it from doing the most Nintendo thing ever and holding a last-minute Direct. That Direct was entirely focused on games coming to the original Nintendo Switch throughout 2025.

Considering how much attention has been put on the Nintendo Switch 2 and all of its big games, that’s left many fans wondering what we might even see at today’s Direct that would make a showcase worth it. With the Direct having started, we now know that one of the reveals was for Marvel Cosmic Invasion, a new beat ’em up from the Shredder’s Revenge team.
Marvel Cosmic Invasion Revealed, Coming Later This Year
During the Nintendo Direct, one of the most surprising announcements of the whole presentation was for Marvel Cosmic Invasion, a new sidescrolling beat ’em up that comes from the Shredder’s Revenge team at Tribute Games. We got a brief glimpse of Cosmic Invasion’s gameplay, which features Marvel characters like Captain America, Spider-Man, Wolverine, Storm, Nova, Venom and more.
The sprites look very similar to Marvel vs. Capcom 2, which is absolutely a good thing.
As great as it was to see all of the things that the original Switch has in store for 2025, we can all admit that we’re mostly looking forward to seeing what the Switch 2 has for us. We don’t have long to wait until we find that out, as the Switch 2 Direct is happening on April 2, with pre-orders for the console rumoured to kick off on that day.
