Marvel Cosmic Invasion's New DLC Adds Roguelike Mode Next Month on PS5

Dotemu and Tribute Games have finally revealed more details about the upcoming DLC for their retro-inspired beat-'em-up, Marvel Cosmic Invasion.

Titled Siege of Castle Doom, the DLC pack is scheduled to launch for the PS5 and PS4 game on 10th November, 2026, as revealed in this new trailer:

The headline addition is a brand new roguelike mode, aiming to add a ton of replay value to the already well-regarded superhero brawler.

It looks like a relatively standard setup: with your chosen heroes, you enter Castle Doomstadt, which contains a random assortment of rooms and challenges with each run. You'll come across several pathways that lead to specific rewards, Hades-style.

As you make progress, you'll gradually beef up your character with stat boosts, new equipment, modifiers, and so on.

Throw in the new playable characters — Doctor Doom and Invisible Woman — and the DLC pack seems like a pretty robust expansion of the main game.

I think a roguelike mode is a perfect addition to Cosmic Invasion. Assuming it's done right, it should give players a great reason to keep coming back for more.
