7/10
I’m happy to see beat ’em ups making a comeback, especially through franchises I care about.
That said, I have to admit that even though the visual quality bar is set quite high, many of these games still feel fairly standard when it comes to gameplay.
I wouldn’t go as far as saying Marvel Cosmic Invasion didn’t entertain me, in fact, it left a more positive impression than the tone of this comment might suggest.
This is more of a general frustration: now that the genre is gaining momentum again, I really wish developers were willing to experiment a bit more.
