Doctor Doom is taking over the arcade. Dave & Buster’s is rebranding its US venues as Doom & Buster’s from 16 November to 31 January, a Marvel takeover ahead of Avengers: Doomsday in cinemas on 18 December, and Andamiro has now confirmed that its new Avengers: Roller Race & Battle is one of the star games.
What is Avengers: Roller Race & Battle?
According to Andamiro’s announcement, it is a four-player alley roller redemption game with a video battle on top. Up to four players sit side by side and roll balls up the lanes at scoring targets, and each good roll pushes your hero further along an animated race on the big screen. Along the way the team has to take on a villain (Doctor Doom, by the look of the artwork), and how well you roll decides how the fight goes and how many tickets you walk away with.

The cabinet art lines up Captain America, Thor, Iron Man and Black Panther against Doom, with a colour-coded stool for each player. Andamiro says this is its second big Dave & Buster’s tie-up this year, after The Mandalorian and Grogu coin-and-card pusher went into D&B venues across the US earlier in 2026.
What else is in Doom & Buster’s?
Arcade Heroes, which first reported the takeover earlier this week, lists the Marvel line-up:
- Marvel Cosmic Invasion (Adrenaline Amusements)
- Avengers: Roller Race & Battle (Andamiro)
- Thor’s Hammer Strike and Smash N Win (ICE)
- A Human Crane, a Mystery Crane, The Arena and an Avengers photo booth
Venues get themed Doomsday Zones, collectible Power Cards, Marvel merchandise and themed food and drink. There is also DOOMHOUR: surprise 60-minute windows where D&B Rewards members earn double tickets on participating games. Games vary by venue, so check your local one before you go.
Can other arcades get it?
Probably not for now. Arcade Heroes says a contact at Andamiro told them Roller Race & Battle will stay a Dave & Buster’s exclusive for the time being, while Adrenaline would not say whether Cosmic Invasion will reach other arcades. With IAAPA in Orlando later this month, we may find out more there.
Our take
Alley rollers are the backbone of every redemption floor, so giving one a proper superhero race and boss fight is a smart way to freshen up an old favourite. It is a big push for D&B too, and a Marvel blockbuster is about the best excuse going to drag a few mates down to the arcade this winter. Andamiro has a busy month ahead, with more new machines heading to IAAPA too.
