Marvel Vs Capcom is a 2D Fighting Game series developed and published by Capcom, which first released on Sega Dreamcast and Playstation in 1999. Marvel Vs Capcom Infinite (MvCI) is the sixth game in the crossover franchise and released in the US on September 19th, 2017 for Playstation 4 and Xbox One. The game released with standard, deluxe, and collector's editions; the Collector's Edition includes the Deluxe Edition and all pre-order bonuses, four character dioramas, and a case with all six LED-powered replica Infinity Stones..
MvCI features all of the game modes you would expect of a fighting game: arcade, versus, story, and online to name a few. The game returns to the 2v2 fighting format from the once-standard 3v3, and has much more simplified fighting controls to appeal to more casual players; it also contains a new gameplay mechanic introducing Infinity Stones, each of which has two different effectsl.
The game's story mode centers around Ultron and Sigma forming an alliance, fusing into a single character and using two of the stones to merge the Marvel and Capcom dimensions. Ultron Sigma spreads a virus across the world which can infect living beings and force them to join their army. The heroes form their own alliance to seek out the remaining four Infinity Stones, stop the Sigma Virus, and ultimately prevent Ultron Sigma from gaining unlimited power.
Overall, MvCI is a good time. The game offers thirty playable characters - fifteen from each side with six characters planned to be released as downloadable content in the next year. Playing online however, could ruin things; thanks to the easier fighting mechanics and use of the Reality stone, players can spam projectiles, the reality stone's power, and use a single combo in a near-infinite loop for an easy win against pretty much anyone. If you play an honest game against other people, you're not likely to win - and that's rather frustrating
Capcom fighting games have been disappointing in recent years, and as a fan of these games, this is more of the same. This game doesn't feel like a truly competitive fighter. Some of the story dialogue feels forced, the gameplay mechanics feel too simple to be much fun, character models don't look great, and the online matchmaking is not very reliable. Marvel Vs Capcom infinite does not feel like a $60 video game, but is worth a rental This game may not be what the hardcore players want - but hey, at least it has an Arcade Mode!
