One thing to add, Tom Philips said yes to no Fox characters in general, not just the X-Men. This is what I asked.



Fox has the movie rights to Kl'rt/Super-Skrull in particular, so he's fucked by virtue of Marvel avoiding Fox-owned characters.
Right, but Fox is probably not going to try to write Super Skrull into a movie just because he might be in Marvel 4, and especially with the utter failure that was the FF reboot, we probably won't see them for a while.

I hope it's out by the end of the year

I think they have been announcing a lot of their digital re-releases and remasters a few months before release. My guess would be around February.

I hope they pull it like that DR3 DLC and surprises us with "available now".

"Available now!"
Please.

Available now would give me a weapons-grade hyper combo etection, by end of year is still damn quick, and even by end of Feb would be fine.

Anxiously awaiting official info.

Ehh, I'd more expect to see Doom or Wolverine than Skrull. No Fox means no Fox, it doesn't have to make rational sense.

Probably, yeah.
Doom has a chance by virtue of his new FF reboot appearance being utter shit and doesn't look anything like comic Doom, but Wolvy is dead and gone especially with Logan coming up.
Doom still has a very low chance.

TBH this is a super general answer that I wouldn't put too much stock into, kind of assumes the other person knows Fox = more than X-Men as well, which you can't be sure of unless you ask about FF/Doom specifically. Same reason why all of these articles are super vaguely written about whether they can confirm no X-Men or just suggest no X-Men.
 
Figured as much. Like I said, I refuse to believe Marvel is that dumb to not include Deadpool or Wolverine until something is officially shown. They need to get over the Fox situation.
I'm on the same boat, cautiously hoping for some X-Men. If nothing happens, DLC could add them.

I tried to compile all the information we have thus far because as time goes on people are just trying to spread nonsense, and the OP isn't being updated. I left out completely unreliable/unaccountable stuff (4Chan, Discord), but all of this stuff shouldn't be taken as fact and people should use their own judgment.

this is an incredible summary and needs to be in the OP or something. will go down in GAF history for sure.

As in "Heathcliff"
If we get a port of UMVC3 it means that Capcom and Marvel have worked out a deal. I *highly* doubt the deal would be limited to a re-release of UMVC3. It would *have* to be MVC4 as well.

Excellent post.
 
I'd buy it but I'd be bummed if they made mvc3 BC. I found a copy of mvc3 for 360 at a Walmart in some small ass town like 2 weeks ago but passed on picking it up. Probably gone now though

Well, if it was added to BC, it would likely be available digitally as well.

I'd still be bummed because I don't own an Xbox One arcade stick so UMVC3 on BC is worthless to me.

license that skullgirls infinite recognition software to play A_Rival and Triforce - Zoop Zoop when ur in the lightning loop

Perfect.

So do any sources specify that its specifically a 2D fighter? Because if Team Ninja is potentially involved then I'm worried it could also be 3D.

These are not valid reasons to not want it brought over via BC. There's no downside to it, really.

We need answers to "Bounce"
It could be sources corroborating each other's info and "bouncing" between each other, or it's definitely Amingo and it's bouncing cactuses!

The reason the xmen and ff wouldnt be in is that it would give the movie versions popularity
Super Skrull isn't in the Fox cinematic universe and so him coming back wouldn't give Fox free publicity

1) there isn't a fox cinematic universe
2) super skrull isn't in YET

Dude is like top 3 FF villain next to Doom and Galactus ... it is a matter of time till someone make a movie with him

There is. To the point they were going to do a FF/X-men crossover until Trank's movie turned out to be a disaster. That's why Simon Kimberly and Matthew Vaughn were producers on that film. FF is the only thing that's missing though. All the X-men films are in a single canon, married by DOFP, with The Last Stand basically cancelled out.
