The best Marvel video game in years receives a release date and confirms two new characters

The highly anticipated game Marvel Cosmic Invasion will officially launch on December 1 and will be available on multiple platforms, including PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, Switch 2, and PC. Developed by Tribute Games, the title promises to deliver a beat ’em up experience that pays homage to 90s Marvel comics, following the studio’s recent success with Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge.

A beat’em up that makes you feel like a Marvel character

Marvel Cosmic Invasion will feature an appealing cast of 15 playable heroes, highlighting two iconic characters that fans did not expect: Phoenix and the Invincible Iron Man. Alongside them, players will be able to choose from other iconic superheroes such as Captain America, Wolverine, and Spider-Man, while battling Annihilus and his minions in an environment reminiscent of the streets of New York.

One of the most innovative features of the game is the mechanic called Cosmic Swap, which allows players to switch between two heroes per level, making it easier to chain combos and abilities smoothly. The pixel art graphic style not only evokes classic arcade games but also provides a vibrant and nostalgic visual experience.

In addition, Marvel Cosmic Invasion will offer a local and online cooperative mode for up to four players, with cross-play options and accessibility settings to ensure that all players can enjoy the title. First impressions have been positive, with critics praising its exciting gameplay and its faithful homage to the Marvel universe.

As if that weren’t enough, a demo of the game is already available for free on Steam, providing interested players the opportunity to try it out before its release. Although plans for additional content after the launch have not yet been confirmed, it is suggested that the studio could explore this possibility if the game receives a good reception in the market. Expectations are high, and many see Marvel Cosmic Invasion as an opportunity to revitalize 2D superhero games, making it one of the most anticipated titles of the season.

If you don't know which demos to play in the Steam Next Fest, we picked all the ones you shouldn't miss

Three times a year the same thing happens. For a week, we are flooded with Steam demos due to Next Fest, and we spend a week playing like crazy. And that’s enough. Give us at least two weeks, Newell! But we know you’re not here to hear us complain that the pace of Next Fest is unmanageable, especially since it has already been confirmed that it will remain this way at least throughout 2026. You’re here for us to recommend demos. And here are five you can’t miss.

Skate Story

You are a demon. You want to eat the Moon. The only way to reach it is on a skateboard. And in hell, they hate skaters. Having to sign an infernal contract to get a skateboard, you become a crystal version of yourself that shatters into a thousand pieces at the slightest impact, something inconvenient for skateboarding. But a low price to pay for eating the Moon and playing the game with the most potential for the rest of the year.

Skate Story is a marvel in every possible aspect. Visually it is a beauty. Musically it is fascinating. And mechanically it is as if you marinated the mechanics of Tony Hawk Pro Skater with the manuals and physics of the first two skates. The result is an amazing, incredibly intelligent game that is hard to say goodbye to. Fortunately, it comes out on December 8th, so it will be for very little time.

BIRDCAGE -Dryad Ecophene Module Object-

A shoot ’em up is not something very novel. A shoot ’em up with a complex and interesting story that unfolds through its different difficulty levels is more so. A shoot ’em up where, in addition to the classic shots, we have an energy sword to take down our enemies and which is absolutely necessary to achieve the best possible scores is much more so.

This is the case of BIRDCAGE, a game by POLYGON BIRD that demonstrates in its demo that it is still possible to innovate in a genre as old as the shoot ’em up. Visually and narratively fascinating, it will delight fans of shoot ’em ups with its sharpness and its clever scoring system. All of this while remaining accessible for those with less experience in the genre. Moreover, once again, without making us wait to keep playing: BIRDCAGE will be released on November 18th.

Lady Dracula

Van Helsing has killed Dracula and his wife, Lady Dracula, is causing chaos. Now it is the job of Lady Dracula II, their daughter, to stop her mother. Hence the name and what we have to do: embody the daughter of the most famous vampire in a classic Castlevania to prevent a catastrophe that could end humanity.

With an 8-bit style reminiscent of the NES or MegaDrive, it is less a game from that era than a game that feels like it belongs to that era. Being able to configure difficulties that limit or extend the mechanics, depending on how classic or modern we want our gaming experience to be, this is for lovers of retro games. And specifically, for all of us who love Castlevania.

MARVEL Cosmic Invasion

Sometimes all you need is a good reason for punches, kicks, and all kinds of blunt attacks that are a pleasure to watch. And that’s what MARVEL Cosmic Invasion offers us. A game that takes us back to the days of arcade machines where you could play alone or with others, choosing your favorite Marvel character to fight against a plethora of semi-generic enemies. Until you reach the boss, who are recognizable villains from Marvel’s history.

With beautiful pixel art designs and incredibly eye-catching animations, this game makes you feel like a true Marvel superhero. Something that makes it the best Marvel game we’ve played in the last ten years.

Cairn

Climbing games are becoming increasingly abundant. No matter how you look at it, it makes sense: climbing is a process that can be made as complex or as simple as one wants, allowing for as many approaches as there are possible games. That’s why it shouldn’t surprise us that The Game Bakers decided to create a version that takes the granularity of climbing a step further than what we have seen so far. Or several. Because Cairn is a climbing game that is as tough as it is interesting.

In Cairn, we control each of our character’s limbs while climbing, having to secure each one as we ascend. With fatigue, hunger, and sleep meters, we must ensure our routes in a methodical and delicate way, in a very physical manner like no other game has proposed so far. Extremely interesting, albeit demanding, this is one of those games that, quietly, can become true gems that captivate the audience. And to discover it, we will only have to wait until the first quarter of 2026.
