Marvel Cosmic Invasion's Doctor Doom-Themed DLC Gives It The Post-Game Tail It Was Missing

Marvel Cosmic Invasion was a bit of a dream game for me; I loved the X-Men arcade game in the '90s, so when Tribute Games released the excellent Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder's Revenge in 2022, I immediately hoped they'd revitalize other licensed brawler franchises released by Konami in the late '80s and early '90s. While we still haven't heard any word of a new brawler starring The Simpsons, Tribute did follow up its Turtle triumph with Marvel Cosmic Invasion, another throwback side-scrolling beat 'em up, this time starring Marvel's mightiest. 

I played through Marvel Cosmic Invasion multiple times and had a blast, but I moved on quickly, as I didn't feel the need to collect different palette-swaps of the many heroes on offer. Even after Cyclops and The Thing joined the roster as DLC in May, I still saw Cosmic Invasion as a game in the rearview. That changes this week, as The Siege of Castle Doom not only adds two additional playable characters (Invisible Woman and Doctor Doom), but also a mode that has the potential to bring me back for more runs for the foreseeable future. 

Seeing that Annihilus is threatening the universe, Doom decides to take matters into his own hands. Unfortunately, much in the way that it seems that he may try to fix the multiversal incursions in the upcoming Avengers: Doomsday , Victor Von Doom's solution in Marvel Cosmic Invasion – the Cosmic Inductor – would lead to untold death and destruction. In The Siege of Castle Doom, you select your team and fight your way through various floors of the stronghold belonging to the man who is perhaps Marvel's greatest villain.
