You’ve asked for them, and here they are: The Fantastic Four’s The Thing and X-Men’s Cyclops join the 15 playable Super Heroes from the original MARVEL Cosmic Invasion roster for a star-spanning adventure against the deadly Annihilation Wave!
To Me, My X-Men!
The no-nonsense leader of the X-Men blasts into battle with his signature kinetic energy beams!
With the ability to shoot his beams diagonally, Cyclops brings an all-new way to counter aerial enemies, catching Annihilus’ hordes off guard!
It’s Clobberin’ Time!
The Fantastic Four’s heaviest hitter brings his cosmic radiation-induced might to MARVEL Cosmic Invasion - outstanding in his field as a grappling powerhouse!
The Thing’s surprising mobility allows you to bounce across the battlefield, and get the jump on Annihilus’ forces. As a former ace pilot, The Thing embraces his new role as a tank-like protector of family and allies alike, arriving as an incredible asset to any team.
Together, Cyclops and The Thing form their own perfect partnership, allowing you to get a grip on both ground action and aerial foes!
A Second DLC is on the way!
Stay tuned for more info on the second major update planned later this year, including a new game mode and two new playable characters!
