Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection: Arcade Classics Now Available


They said it couldn’t be done, but here we are. The digital version of Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection: Arcade Classics is out today for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 and PC (with an Xbox release planned for 2025). The physical version is set to release on November 22nd.

This collection brings together seven of Capcom's classic Marvel arcade titles, including the original Marvel vs. Capcom and Marvel vs. Capcom 2—a particular highlight for Mega Man fans. Both games feature familiar faces like the blue bomber, Roll, Tron Bonne, and her army of Servbots. 

The collection features an extensive art gallery with several Mega Man-related pieces, including never-before-seen drafts of special moves and combos. For example, the Rush Drill was originally designed as an underground digging move. There's also an early concept for Hyper Mega Man that predates the Mazinger-inspired version we’ve come to know and love.

If you grew up playing these games in the arcade, this collection offers a great shot of nostalgia. And if you’re new to the series, it’s an easy way to dive in, with online play (rollback included), modern display options, and simplified combos for beginners.

Whether you're revisiting old memories or exploring for the first time, it's worth a look.
