The Electric State film announces Kid Cosmo video game prequel

The Russo Brothers' upcoming movie The Electric State is expanding into gaming with a tie-in prequel titled Kid Cosmo. This project aims to launch a broader franchise tied to the film.

The Electric State, an anticipated film directed by the Russo Brothers, has revealed plans for a video game adaptation. The game, named Kid Cosmo, serves as a prequel to the movie's storyline. According to announcements, this tie-in is designed to kick off a franchise that bridges the cinematic and gaming worlds.

Details on Kid Cosmo remain limited, but it positions itself as an integral part of the Electric State universe. The Russo Brothers, known for their work on Marvel films like Avengers: Endgame, are steering this multimedia expansion.
