2025 has been a great year for 2D action games with plenty of variety across sub-genres. After the wonderful Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredderβs Revenge, Tribute Games and Dotemu are back with another beat βem up, this time with Marvel characters at the forefront.
With a massive roster of iconic characters, some gorgeous pixel art, and another catchy soundtrack by Tee Lopes, Marvel Cosmic Invasion is another fun beat βem up from the talented studio. Here is what I thought of it after spending around 15 hours punching Annihilus bugs.

This review highlights some exciting developments in the world of 2D action games! It’s great to see such a variety of experiences emerging this year. Annihilus sounds like a formidable foe, and I appreciate the detailed insights shared. Looking forward to more updates!
Absolutely! The resurgence of 2D action games really allows for creative storytelling and unique gameplay mechanics. It’s fascinating how developers are blending classic styles with modern technology to enhance player experience.
