The Marvel vs. Capcom series is one of the most beloved fighting franchises in gaming, and after the third one, people were hoping a fourth one would come for years. And it looks like we may just get it after all. A new teaser has arrived for Marvel vs. Capcom Infinite. Here it is!
The trailer begins with a familiar pair of blue feet. It's Mega Man...Mega Man X, that is. Yup. X. I keep wondering why Capcom avoids using the original Mega Man. Ah well, at this this game will get a Mega Man. X reaches towards a glowing pink/purple object, but it gets blasted away from him...only to be caught by a familiar red-gloved hand.
It's Ryu, and the object is a gem! It clearly is one of the Infinity Gems, and since it's purple, it's likely the Space Gem.
Ryu helps X up, and Iron Man makes his landing, ready for a brawl! X and Iron get into a bit of a beam war, which Tony Stark wins, but then Ryu uses the gem's power to uppercut Iron Man into the sky. Iron Man is saved by none other than Carol Danvers, aka Captain Marvel! She powers up, and I can't help but think she looks a little like a Super Saiyan from Dragon Ball Z, ha ha.
Now that Iron Man's got his tag team partner, the two decide to take it to the Capcom heroes, Carol packing a Gem of her own, it seems. The green aura seems to indicate that it's the Soul Gem. Captain Marvel then zips in and hits Ryu with a rapid-fire fusillade of blows.
The teaser ends with Iron Man and X's beams about to collide while Captain Marvel and Ryu's Infinity Gem-charged fists are about to do the same.
We get a brief glimpse of a robot that clearly appears to be Ultron, with another pair of green eyes glowing on his chest. I have heard the big theory that it's Sigma from the Mega Man X series. That would make sense, since X is clearly going to be in the game. This could also hint that perhaps that perhaps Ultron merges with Sigma and they may be the Big Bad of this game. That would be neat to see.
We also see that the Infinity Gems are involved, so maybe the gameplay will pay homage to the 1995 arcade game Marvel Super Heroes, in which the Infinity Gems could be obtained and used by players to provide brief boosts for their chosen fighter. Maybe the gameplay here will be similar.
Well, all I have to say is, this trailer was a blast to watch! It was action packed, we got to see some hints of what this game may have to offer, and its nice to see MvC continue on! Can't wait for the full trailer!
