I’m more excited than a kid on xmas!
Also congrats to MS for working out the MT Framework issue with Capcom. Now I can get the game on my preferred systems.
@Ryu_Niiyama Same
I'm waiting to find out how hard this collection has been censored.
Note that it's not a matter of "if". I have no benefit of the doubt to give Capcom in 2024 especially since they listed broad censorship on their website for the upcoming Capcom Fighting Collection 2. Capcom absolutely censored this too somehow and I'm waiting to learn how bad it is.
@Porky Did they say what was censored in Capcom Fighting Collection 2?
It’s almost here, next week. Digital version anyway.
Can't wait to get back into MvC2!
Where to buy the physical version in Europe?!
I found the physical version for PS5 on Amazon FR but that is about it...
I really would like to avoid getting it from Amazon US as it will be very expensive
@tourjeff Yeah, i was a little gutted about that too. I'm still getting digital anyway.
@Porky Well, if paid attention to the site. The only things alter were some flashing effects being removed (optional. Due to epilepsy concerns) and the option to have certain characters unlocked from the start
@CartoonDan Long story short is certain endings in Power Stone will be altered (likely to keep within rating boards standards. I think Rouge's ending features her, albeit implied, naked body. Last thing you want is an 18/M rating for a game that wasn't intended). Some of Demitris Midnight Bliss effects are changed (likely due to some licensing issues from what I understand). Think there's also some flashing effects removed too (optional)
To me, those differences don't bother me. It does appear to bother one YouTuber who seemed a bit salty neither collection is coming to Xbox
Wonder if these videos will come also to the Marvel vs. Capcom Youtube channel.
Anyway, we're getting so close to the release date, happy for those who are getting it (also) digitally - personally I've preordered a discounted physical copy (most likely an import one as it seems Europe is not getting a Switch physical release) from my trusty retailer so I will have to wait for that!
Still a long wait for physical :/ for no proper reason. I will hold out though, I can't afford to buy it twice on the same console!!
@NeonMullet Capcom is also doing this with Dead Rising as well. Not really a fan of this practice myself, but I was planning on buying two copies from the start though. One for PS4, the other on Switch.
This week. Time flies!
Ha Xbox won't get their versions until 2025. Capcom had spoken, both the Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection and Capcom Fighting Collection 2 will launch on Xbox One in 2025 but as digital only releases. There are still no words on SvC: SNK vs. Capcom Chaos or SNK vs. Capcom: The Match of the Millennium or Tatsunoko vs. Capcom coming to Xbox any time soon.
