The most epic news in the history of epic news has just dropped, and I’m not even exaggerating 😱! MARVEL Cosmic Invasion DLC 1 is here, and it’s bringing some serious heat with the addition of Cyclops and The Thing to the roster 🤯! I mean, who needs a social life when you can spend your days playing as your favorite Marvel heroes, right? 🤷♂️
But wait, there’s more! 🤔 The first paid DLC for 2025’s MARVEL Cosmic Invasion is not just a lazy cash-grab (although, let’s be real, it kind of is 💸). For the low, low price of $3.99 USD, you can blast enemies as Cyclops, leader of the X-Men, or tank hits and clobber foes as The Thing from the Fantastic Four 🤖. I mean, it’s not like you have better things to spend your money on, like food or rent 🏠.
And don’t even get me started on the fact that Cosmic Invasion players won’t have to wait too long for another content drop 🕰️. DLC 2 is confirmed to be launching this fall, and it’s going to feature even more playable characters and an all-new game mode 🎮! Because what’s a game without a dozen DLCs, am I right? 🤑
But seriously, the addition of Cyclops and The Thing is a big deal, and I’m not just saying that because I’m a huge fan of the X-Men and Fantastic Four 🤓. They will be joining the base roster of 15 Marvel heroes fighting back against the Annihilation Wave, and you can try them out in a single playthrough using the tag-out system or in four-player co-op 🤝. Just don’t expect me to join your team, because let’s face it, I’m a gaming noob 🤦♂️.
DotEmu, the developer of MARVEL Cosmic Invasion, is a pretty underrated game studio and publisher, having developed other retro-style beat-’em-ups like Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge, Streets of Rage 4, and NINJA GAIDEN: Ragebound 🎮. They’re also responsible for the new beat-’em-up rogue-lite Absolum that released last year, which includes music from legendary gaming musicians like Mick Gordon and Yuka Kitamura 🎶. Because who doesn’t love a good gaming soundtrack, right? 🎵
So, if you want to start clobbering some enemies in MARVEL Cosmic Invasion, you can play it on Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 4 and 5, Nintendo Switch 2, and PC via Steam 🎮. Just don’t say I didn’t warn you when you spend the next 12 hours playing and forget to eat or sleep 😴. Happy gaming, and may the odds be ever in your favor 🎲! 🚀👽💥
