That's a rumor. Vancouver Capcom is supposed to be making that game (that's the studio making the Dead Rising games)... well, was making that is.

fuck that

 

[Shin]

Is Firebrand from Ghosts 'n Ghouls or from Marvel universe?

 

[Neonep]

This game isn't going to do well and everybody knows it. Capcom gonna wonder why even though it is obvious.

 

[OmegaSmash]

I hope Firebrand is actually closer to his Gargoyle Quest version.

 

[Sesha]

Is Firebrand from Ghosts 'n Ghouls or from Marvel universe?

He's Capcom. He's from the Gargoyle's Quest/Demon's Crest games, but he's the same race as the Red Arremer enemies in Ghosts n' Goblins.

 

[MetroidPrimeRib]

Is Firebrand from Ghosts 'n Ghouls or from Marvel universe?

Ghosts n Goblins. More commonly known as Red Arremer, but Firebrand is from the spin-off games.

 

[Zero-ELEC]

And with that there's only 3 characters left to reveal!

Only one of them is new to the series.

 

[DrArchon]

I'm still 50/50 on whether or not Monster Hunter is going to be a DLC character or not. I wouldn't put anything past Capcom at this point.

 

[HelloNewman]

What is Capcom doing Injustice 2 had new reveals every week leading up to launch.

 

[Mupod]

power of the power of the

anyways good news for me, Dorm was my second best character in MVC3, after Taskmaster. As long as he plays well and the Monster Hunter character doesn't suck I'm feeling better about the roster...even if it lacks Gene (again).

 

[mreddie]

Is this because pros use Firebrand hence the inclusion?

Seriously, this is looking like 4 but made by people who were really good with 3 and that no mutants/F4 thing but their movesets moved to other people.

 

[Son Of Sparda]

Mid-September.

And the marketing push is .... somewhere.

A month and some change and they still can't be bothered with character trailers for their new announcements.

They really want to just push this game out of the door, don't they?

 

[Anth0ny]

thinking firebrand might be bad guy fodder for the story mode


there's no other logical reason why he gets in over 50 other more deserving characters

 

[BitStyle]

What a whack ass way to reveal some characters. The marketing for this game was all spent on the Ultron Statue at E3

For sure. Why can't we just get a nice trailer. Announcing characters on a variant comic cover is pretty muted

 

[Neonep]

The problem is that Capcom only wants to announce things at shows which isn't a good idea because guarantee that there will be news bigger than this game. At E3 it got drowned out, Comic Con it got overshadowed, and it probably will at Gamescom too. They also had nothing really for Evo. They would be better off dropping on a random day and have the news cycle to themselves.

 

[The Lone Dragon]

A month and some change and they still can't be bothered with character trailers for their new announcements.

They literally JUST TOLD YOU when the gameplay footage will be.

That sounds like they're bothering, and TELLING you when they're bothering.

 

[Zero-ELEC]

They literally JUST TOLD YOU when the gameplay footage will be.

That sounds like they're bothering, and TELLING you when they're bothering.

No, that gameplay footage won't be character trailers. It'll be another gameplay trailer where they "reveal" a bunch of characters at the same time and the last stone stone.

 

[Skilotonn]

Spidey and Dorm were the two characters I wanted to see the most because I want th to be the main team regardless of how good or bad they are.

Should have had a video to go with this announcement, come on.

They'll probably recast him to Phil LaMarr like in the current cartoons. Spider-Man, Rocket, Groot, Gamora, Captain Marvel, Thor & Doctor Strange were also recast to their current cartoon voices.

I don't know how he sounds in the cartoon, but Dorm was perfect in Marvel 3 and I hope he still has the same voice.

 

[Motion Picture Soundtrack]

Is this because pros use Firebrand hence the inclusion?

Seriously, this is looking like 4 but made by people who were really good with 3 and that no mutants/F4 thing but their movesets moved to other people.

There weren't many notable pro Firebrand players. He wasn't bad, but he was more of a gimmick pick based around unblockable setups.

 

[Tripon]

pls link the reveal trailers, op

dormammu, dawg

I see what you did there.

 

[Neoxon]

I don't know how he sounds in the cartoon, but Dorm was perfect in Marvel 3 and I hope he still has the same voice.

I wouldn't get your hopes up, in light of the recent recastings.

 

[Son Of Sparda]

That sounds like they're bothering, and TELLING you when they're bothering.

Dormammu and Firebrand are fired up for #MVCI, and this week they kick off our Marvel Comics variant covers!

Where does it say anything about gameplay reveals?

Also, imo the trailers should accompany the reveal.

 

[katsubento]

A trailer Capcom...it helps.

Marvel does comic...you do trailer. Repeat after me.

Comic...Trailer.

Comic...Trailer.

Comic...Trailer!

Yay! You learned something!


Weeks later is weak.

 

[Skilotonn]

I wouldn't get your hopes up, in light of the recent recastings.

One can dream.

 

[Unspeakable Evil]

Capcom use to be hype with fighting game marketing. What happened?

 

[Supast4r]

POWER OF THE CREA-

POWER OF THE DESTRUC-

POWER OF THE CREA-

You know f champ is happy as fuck that his boy is back

 

[Chavelo]

I truly believe the lone dragon is Combofiend in disguise and spends his time at work defending the game instead of working on the game itself.

You can't fool me! GET BACK TO WORK!

 

[FUNKNOWN iXi]

Cool, I'm glad both of these characters made it. I enjoyed their designs and fighting styles in UMvC3.

 

[Trey]

Capcom use to be hype with fighting game marketing. What happened?

I'm guessing their budget is a stick of gum and hope.

 

[Karsticles]

If you got to the fourth word, your inputs were lax.

 

[PhilipDoesMatter]

Even marketing doesn't want these characters



SFxTK with stones in place of gems

SFxTK with MvC3 movesets and stones in place of gems.

Good.

 

[AdmiralMikey]

I'm glad they were kind enough to drop a Kaecilius on us and let us know Dormammu is coming.

 

[lucebuce12]

If you got to the fourth word, your inputs were lax.

Yeah, I was never really good with Dormammu even if I did enjoy using him

 

[Red Liquorice]

That's a rumor. Vancouver Capcom is supposed to be making that game (that's the studio making the Dead Rising games)... well, was making that is.

I thought that was some spirtual successor thing where it was set in modern day and zombies/ghouls were rampant in a modern city.

Sounds like the exact opposite of what I want them to do with the GnG IP.

 

[Nocturnowl]

My boy Firebrand repping G&G with better games than Arthur.

 

[JeTmAn81]

No Dormammu footage.

A bizarre bargain.

Just go watch UMVC3 matches, he'll probably be 95% the same

 

[Gai Murakumo]

To me Infinite feels like the game that would have come out before MVC 3. MVC 3 just looks much better and polished. Other than X and Sigma this game really does not appeal to me at all.

 

[katsubento]

I'm guessing their budget is a stick of gum and hope.

You're not far off.

Hopefully Capcom gets it together soon.

 

[RuinerPrime]

Love Firebrand in mvc3, glad he's back.

 

[Toxi]

Make a fucking trailer Capcom.

 

[low-G]

So they have the character from my first RPG I played when I was 10 that me and about 14 other people in the world care about instead of the X-Men. Gotcha.

 

[sixteen-bit]

Shocking, 2 returning UMvC3 characters zzzz

 

[DrArchon]

So they have the character from my first RPG I played when I was 10 that me and about 14 other people in the world care about instead of the X-Men. Gotcha.

Haven't you heard? Most people probably don't even remember who the X-Men are any more.

 

[lucebuce12]

Haven't you heard? Most people probably don't even remember who the X-Men are any more.

X-Men?

Are they like the Inhumans?

 

[BadWolf]

So they have the character from my first RPG I played when I was 10 that me and about 14 other people in the world care about instead of the X-Men. Gotcha.

Said character would never sell as DLC.

X-Men will bring in the dough.

 

[OmegaSmash]

Shocking, 2 returning UMvC3 characters zzzz

To be fair I don't think many people pegged Firebrand to come back (not taking the leak into account of course).

 

[Toxi]

Haven't you heard? Most people probably don't even remember who the X-Men are any more.

Only people who write Wolverine-and-Storm-in-space fanfiction remember the X-Men.

 

[MrSaturn99]

The difference in marketing between this and MVC3/UMVC3 is just incredible.

 

[crimzonflame]

Haven't you heard? Most people probably don't even remember who the X-Men are any more.

9 out 10 millennials do not know who the X-Men are

 

[DrArchon]

9 out 10 millennials do not know who the X-Men are

I hear fantasies like this are the only way for Marvel executives to get erections any more.
