Q: What about X-Men and Fantastic Four characters? Would they be in Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite?
A: According to the Game Informer impressions, hope might not be lost for X-Men/FF characters: "[Creative Director of Marvel Entertainment Bill Roseman] wants to make sure fans of all of Marvel properties, including X-Men, were happy. "That heritage is not lost," he told me."
Q: Do you know if Marvel asked for the X-men to be available only as DLC, or if it's Capcom decision?
A:
Marvel legally has the rights to give developers access to their entire cast of characters thanks to Activision's hold on certain franchises (the X-Men for example) expiring back in 2014. The only license Activision has left is the Spider-Man movie tie-in license, which expires next year. This isn't a matter of Marvel not being able to use X-Men & Fantastic Four characters, it's the fact that they don't want to. Marvel's been trying to minimize the exposure of the X-Men & the Fantastic Four in an attempt to lower the popularity of both properties (which would in turn screw over Fox). Within the last few years, Marvel has had a bit of a feud with 20th Century Fox over the properties they still hold the movie rights for (the X-Men & the Fantastic Four). It grew to the point where, after the release of Marvel: Contest of Champions (the mobile Injustice knock-off by Kablam), Marvel imposed a complete ban on all X-Men & Fantastic Four characters in games made after Contest of Champions. One of the first victims of the ban was Marvel Mighty Heroes, whose developer (DeNA) had this to say on the matter.
To clarify what this ban means....
As for the timeline on how this has affected post-CoC games...
- As stated earlier, all new games made after Contest of Champions are not allowed to use any X-Men & Fantastic Four characters. This includes the likes of Wolverine, Deadpool, Doctor Doom, Cyclops, Jean Grey/Phoenix, X-23, Storm, Magneto, Super-Skrull, Sentinel, & more.
- Games made before the ban with active contracts, like Marvel Heroes (the PC MMO), can add whoever they want until their current contracts expires (Ex: Gazillion's existing contract with Marvel expires in 2019).
- Remasters &/or ports of older games can be re-released untouched (Ex: The Deadpool remaster for PS4 & XB1).
- The Maximoff Twins, Quicksilver (Pietro Maximoff) & Scarlet Witch (Wanda Maximoff), are only allowed on a case-by-case basis (Ex: Lego Marvel's Avengers). Only their comic book & MCU incarnations can be used in the event that Marvel allows a developer to use one or both of the Twins, & zero references to their X-Men history can be made. They've also been banned from games more times than not, but their inclusion in certain games isn't impossible.
I hope this clears things up a bit.
- Avengers Alliance 2: No X-Men, No Fantastic Four, No Maximoff Twins
- Avengers Academy: No X-Men, No Fantastic Four, No Maximoff Twins
- Lego Marvel's Avengers: The Maximoff Twins are present, No X-Men, No Fantastic Four
- Marvel Mighty Heroes: No X-Men, No Fantastic Four, No Maximoff Twins
- Marvel Future Fight: No X-Men, No Fantastic Four, No Maximoff Twins
- Disney Infinity 2.0 & 3.0: No X-Men, No Fantastic Four, No Maximoff Twins
Q. Why Marvel allowed Capcom to add X-Men and Fantastic Four characters now? Via DLC? if the rumors assumed to be real.

Capcom - making Marvel Vs. Capcom franchise
Marvel - whatever they done for MvC franchise
Enzo_GT - for saving my arse since I lost most of my contents and he allowed me to borrow his information and contents from his previous thread.

The Marvel pettiness is a bit strange. They're screwing over their own brands to not give popularity to franchises they licensed out?
Don't think this tactic will make Fox give them up sooner, for instance.

The head guy at Marvel is literally an ancient evil villain and he is set on this path, even though it makes no sense.
He's convinced that people will stop going to see stuff like Logan and Deadpool if Marvel stops putting them in the video games.
Wow, that Game Informer interview is depressing. Peter is so lifeless in it. His responses are so robotic... He must either have been given a ton of crap from on high, or the fan backlash/criticism is starting to get to him.
I have lost all my anger. His stupid comments have all been forgotten to me. I now officially just feel bad for him and everyone working on this game. What a depressing situation.

it's not that they want to screw Fox, they had no problem with Fox characters appearing on MvC (dlc). they just want their MCU characters got in first. it's a matter of priorities.

Just going off the quote in the OP
Wolverine over Gamora probably would've made a lot of people happy while there still being a Guardians of the Galaxy rep

Nice new thread, still need to fix that Nova icon tho
Yeah i don't know why OP used that, are you telling me you couldn't find a shot where Nova is alone on it?

The one from his level 3 might work well
It's been an ongoing problem for 2+ years that only ended recently.

There is no CGI cutscene for Nova by himself yet so the closest I could think are level 3 or level 1 hyper. I usually would like to avoid that as much as I could. Ultron is the expectation on that matter since I have a gut feeling he would merged with Sigma at beginning of the game.
That is good. I was honestly feeling pretty bad there. I am glad to see that he isn't completely beaten down by this fiasco. It has to be hard having to rep Function vs. Function: Infinite.

How likely are we to get a Spider-man teaser next Friday? (I think it starts next Friday?)
Here's the Wall of Shame from the previous thread.
I wonder how many of those post mentioned, "Fox ban".

LOL, I'm not even on it? Goddamn.
106/1038, if I recall correctly. Of course, I also have to search for variations of the phrase.
Our last chances for reveals are EVO, SDCC, & D23. I'd imagine that we'll get an in-game clip of Spider-Man around the time of Spider-Man: Homecoming's US release (like what happened with Rocket).

Its funny how quick the old thread moved with barely any information all those months.
MiguelMexMIstery

Yeah, I'd think that without the leaks, we would still be in the 1st thread.
Hopefully we can keep all the troublemakers out of this one...., who am i kidding lol yes three more months to go and i would assume a few more reveals for the roster. People getting disappointed at characters they already know about.
Im hoping we get some surprise and Capcom is laughing at us now ; ;

Snails pace compared to MvC3 pre-release.

Here's to a new thread, new reveals, and hopefully hype...we certainly need it.
When you are having character trailers for a sequel to a highly anticipated game then hey, I'm not surprised. There has only been 3 info drops about this game. It's initial announcement at PSX, that random day when they announced the release date, and E3.
I've heard stories about the MvC3 hype on NeoGAF. What was it like?
christiankid7
Member
Well, MVC3 prerelease was much more informative than this one has been
Going by that CGI only rule doesn't really make much sense since most of those character protraits aren't even CGI. The only CGI ones on Marvel's side are Captain Marvel and Iron Man the rest is in-game.
Reveal trailer = CGI
Cutscenes = in-game models

Very hype, pages and pages of wishlists and speculation.
I don't think it was. I think people were more excited for MvC3.
christiankid7

I'm pretty sure you're being sarcastic, but hopefully we see some more improvement between the EVO build & the E3 build (unless the E3 build is what's being demoed at EVO).
Ah ok. Yea surprise character and one I'm hyped for.

I know that but I miswrote it but I meant I would rather to avoid to use stuffs from gameplay video unless it's necessary.

I'm honestly surprised by his inclusion. Seems kinda out-of-the-left-field.
