Update: Marvel vs Capcom 3: What We Know So Far

The roster keeps growing as we get closer and closer to the release date of Marvel vs Capcom 3. I’m sure we all need a little bit of a refresher in not just our fighting skills but also on all the information that’s been surrounding one of the most anticipated games of the year. So let’s break this down and make a cheat sheet for everyone.

  • Release date is February 13, 2011 for both Xbox 360 and Playstation 3
  • Character count so far is 32 Characters and growing, latest two characters added to the roster were Hsien-Ko and Sentinel
  • There will be new music, along with remixes from the all of the previous  Marvel vs. Capcom games

  • There will be a actual story for the game
  • The Exchange button controls a variety of functions including simplified launch attacks, which set your opponent up for air combos, spike attacks that deliver fierce downward attacks which enable you to execute devastating ground combos, and character switching

  • The Capcom staff that made the previous Marvel vs. Capcom’s are involved
