Rumor: Marvel Vs Capcom 3 Coming Soon [UPDATED]

Will one of the most beloved fighting series ever be getting a sequel soon?

The much loved Marvel Vs Capcom 2 made many epic showdowns possible: Ryu Vs Spider-Man, Wolverine Vs Zangief, Captain America Vs urr… Roll. It’s been a long time since there’s been anything new on the horizon for the series except for the release of the game on XBLA or PSN last year.

If rumors are to be believed, however, Marvel Vs Capcom 3 could be out before the end of the year. According to anonymous sources, Capcom is working on the game as we speak. According to sources, the game will be a mix of the style of MvC 2 and Street Fighter IV and will be a high-definition disc-based release.

Wolverine, Spider-Man, The Hulk, Magneto, and Storm will apparently be returning, with the team behind the game saying that we will be blown away by the number of playable character in the game.

It’s important to stress that all this is just rumor, and all the ‘evidence’ that points towards it – Marvel employees at Capcom press events and the Marvel Vs Capcom Twitter account firing up again – isn’t proof exactly. The sources are claiming that the game will be officially announced next week, so I guess we will just have to wait and see.

UPDATE: A teaser trailer for the game has appeared on line, which seems pretty genuine. If it is a hoax, it’s a very good one.

Chris Redfield Vs The Hulk? That doesn’t seem fair.
