Marvel Cosmic Invasion Guide: all Cosmic Matrix Rewards Worth Buying

Guide
Written By NLM Team

The Cosmic Matrix is a giant board of 101 secrets, and I hate spending my hard-earned Cubes on "concept art" when I could be unlocking cheats.

If you have been playing Marvel Cosmic Invasion, you have probably noticed the "Vault" section. This is where you spend the Cosmic Cubes you find in levels or earn by leveling up. The problem is that the rewards are hidden until you buy them.

I have mapped out the entire grid so you don't have to waste currency on "Nova Corps Files" (unless you really like reading text boxes). Here is the definitive list of everything that actually matters: the Hero Palettes (Skins), Music Tracks, and the game-changing Arcade Modifiers.

The Master List (Items 1-101)

If it changes how the game looks or plays, it is on this list.

THE COSMIC SHOPPING LIST

Every Skin, Cheat, and Song hidden in the grid.

MATRIX # REWARD TYPE THE ITEM
#1 Modifier Free Play (Infinite Lives). Buy this first.
#4, #8 Music Title Screen & Hero Selection Theme.
#7, #9 Skin (Palette 1) Nova & Spider-Man.
#11, #13, #15 Skin (Palette 1) Phyla-Vell, Storm, Wolverine.
#14 Modifier Enemy Config. Customize enemy spawns.
#17, #21, #24 Skin (Palette 1) Iron Man, Captain America, Rocket Raccoon.
#25 Modifier Doppelgangers. Fight evil versions of heroes?
#27, #30 Skin (Palette 1) Venom & She-Hulk.
#32 Modifier Faster Enemies. For when Hard isn't hard enough.
#33, #36, #38 Skin (Palette 1) Silver Surfer, Cosmic Ghost Rider, Black Panther.
#35 Modifier Double HP Enemies. Pure pain.
#41 Modifier Old School Super. Spend HP to use Supers (Like the 90s arcade games).
#42, #46 Skin (Palette 1) Phoenix & Beta Ray Bill.
#49 Modifier No Refill. Health pickups don't respawn/drop? Hardcore.
#50, #54, #58 Skin (Palette 2) Nova, Spider-Man, Wolverine.
#61, #64, #66 Skin (Palette 2) Storm, Phyla-Vell, Iron Man.
#63 Modifier Concentration. Likely affects Focus gain.
#69, #71, #74, #76 Skin (Palette 2) Silver Surfer, Venom, Black Panther, Cosmic Ghost Rider.
#79, #81, #84 Skin (Palette 2) She-Hulk, Captain America, Rocket Raccoon.
#80 Modifier Vampire. Life steal on hit, but health drains over time.
#83 Music Boss Fight Theme. Absolute banger.
#86, #89 Skin (Palette 2) Phoenix & Beta Ray Bill.
#96 Modifier Hard Focus. Makes building the super meter much harder.
#98 Music Cosmic Matrix Theme.

What About The Rest?

Everything else in the grid (Slots like #2, #5, #100, etc.) are Nova Corps Files. These are just text biographies of characters and factions like A.I.M. or The Symbiotes.

Unless you are a lore junkie or trying to get the 100% completion achievement, you can safely skip them until you have unlocked all the cool stuff above.

Now go spend those Cubes. I recommend starting with #1 (Free Play) so you can actually enjoy Arcade Mode without throwing your controller.
