I'm really curious how they would combine them.
Some characters would need a redesign depending on the style. Right now it's more why would marvel even want to keep the capcom characters vs just a roster of their own

I'd have to imagine it may have to do with Marvel's game division doing an honest effort in trying to give people what they want. There's plenty of other game devs they could have gone to that aren't Capcom such as Iron Galaxy if they just wanted a Marvel exclusive game. Plus if they're tying the MCU into this specifically then they can really play up this particular enterprise now embracing a much larger scale crossover now that fans of the MCU have gotten accustomed to characters crossing over between movies.

Either that or the occam's razor suggests it's just the characters being "based/inspired" by the MCU rather than the comics.
 
I actually think no XMen make me more excited. There are tons of non-Mutant characters I'd love to see. It guarantees Marvel will be a lot more willing with the license and not kill the game 2 years in like UMvC3 (Or really, it was less than a year until they were FORCED to come out with UMvC3 and there was no DLC like all the stuff that was promised.) If the license mishap ever clears up, I'm sure an XMen themed pack will be available. It'd be good to see MvC4 or whatever it'll be called evolve like SFV has. SFV started off of the ground and is now reaching new heights each update. If MvC4 can start with a higher floor (More characters, content, and options), it'll be amazing.
 
this could get a PC release right?

I'm concerned because the closest analog, Injustice 2 is skipping PC but then again the Lego Marvel games are on PC.

Injustice 2 might not skip PC, Boon said a port is likely and I'm thinking they partly fixed up MKX so they could do one and not have everyone throw stuff at them.

WB treats PC players like second class citizens whereas Capcom doesn't (other than that rootkit thing with SFV), so I'd imagine this would come to PC.

I'm shook. Possible 2v2, no X-Men or FF, MCU overshadowing the Capcom side?

Please don't let this suck
The MCU was always going to overshadow the Capcom side.

A single character on the Marvel side has more recognition than all the Capcom characters except maybe Ryu.
 
All I know is both Marvel 4 is 1000% happening and we'll be seeing it at the keynote first. Trying to get more info though. I'll let this thread know if anything substantial comes my way.

..............

Where are people getting this "Marvel will overshadow Capcom's side" thing from? Might just be me but given it's the MCU that's enough for Capcom to pull out their biggest guns especially with their financial situation.
 
MCU actors could just mean someone narrating the story mode, y'know. We don't know. Would suck if it was only a few cast members voicing a few of the characters, I don't like the idea one bit.

Lmao @ this post + poster combo
 
This would be incredibly unlikely, though. They have enough difficulty trying to get A-list actors to sign nine picture contracts without forcing them to do voice-overs for video games.

Probably for Downey yeah, but not for everyone else. Evans and Hemmsworth have already done voicework for Marvel video games, which points to them having some kind of deal already.
 
With all this talk about no mutants/F4 characters, MCU actors and focus, I feel one CRITICAL question is still being overlooked.

Will this even still take place on Earth-30847, the Earth that all of Capcom's Marvel games take place?!

This game could be the best shot Frank Castle has to get into a MvC title. It'd be a travesty if they couldn't throw a reference back to his old Punisher beat em up!
 
jesus christ stop associating MCU with the movies. All it means is thats the heroes they would use. Its the same shit that happened in 3, and they had the comic looks and moves, not the movies.
