The trailer begins with Ultron and Sigma facing off. Ultron states that all organic life must be exterminated. Based on the next combined narration, I think we can guess the plot here: Ultron and Sigma somehow get the Infinity Gems, which causes them to merge into a new form that actually looks pretty cool. I think they intend to use the gems to create a new universe.
We next then see what looks like Asgard, with the combined Ultron/Sigma being sitting on Odin's throne, the Asgardians under his control. They look like they're partially roboticized. I'm guessing Sigma got the tech from Dr. Robotnik/Eggman somehow.
We then see some heroes fighting Ultron drones. There's Strider, the Hulk, Chris Redfield, Thor, Captain America, Mega Man X, the Carol Danvers Captain Marvel, Chun-Li with the kicks, Hawkeye shooting arrows...the bit with Hawkeye shooting arrows at Ultron Sigma has to be a nod to the first Avengers movie, the bit with Hawkeye firing an arrow at Loki during the final battle.
It's neat to see some characters returning from the last game, but I have to admit, I was kind of hoping to see more new characters in this scene. Yeah, Captain Marvel and Mega Man X are new, but I was hoping to see a couple more. I do hope the roster is massive, though. Marvel and Capcom got big character libraries, dig deep, guys! Go big!
There's a nice scene with Rocket and Mega Man X, that gave me a chuckle. I noticed he has his MCU appearance. That actually makes a lot of sense. That's the look the mainstream will be familiar with thanks to the Guardians of the Galaxy movie.
Evidently there's a Deluxe Edition that can be pre-ordered. Comes with six all-new DLC characters, probably three Marvel and three Capcom, and six premium costumes. Maybe they're more...old-school outfits? It says Sigma is featured. Is he one of the six DLC characters, or is he separate? The Deluxe Edition comes with some NICE-looking statues, too.
This game looks like it'll be a LOT of fun! I hope they bring it to the Switch!
