In case you missed it, Marvel vs Capcom Fighting Collection: Arcade Classics is getting a physical Switch release this week.
If you do happen to be picking up a hard copy, select regions and stores will be offering a bonus physical comic while supplies last. It's a "new" 32 page physical copy and will come "packed in the game". Here's a teaser, courtesy of Capcom's socials and the GameStop website:
Capcom has listed this deal in the US for the Switch and PlayStation physical releases at GameStop, Amazon, Best Buy and Walmart. It will be available for $50 USD or your regional equivalent.
When this collection was released for the Switch in September, we called it a stunning showcase of '90s fighter evolution, awarding it an "excellent" nine out of ten stars.
Will you be picking up the physical collection? Let us know in the comments.

This game would be so cool to play if I had friends
I pre ordered months ago from Best Buy.. does mine come with this?
The cover looks decent, but the sample art shown in the tweet is meh.
Should be in tomorrow!
In Europe, of course, you probably just get a QR code for a PDF download.
In Europe it's listed as "code-in-a-box"...oh well...PS4 disc it is then
@rvcolem1 Friends? What are those?
What a super cool bonus for once!
I'm in the UK and ordered mine from Amazon US, hopefully this will ship with it! Currently expecting it Dec 1st however...
Pretty cool, happy for those who'll have this included in their physical copies (possibly me included, but I'm still not sure due to the whole EU code-in-box debacle - should ask my retailer again to see if they now know which version I'm supposed to get)!
That’s a really nice bonus! I preordered my copy months ago from GameStop, but they’ve been inconsistent lately on whether preorders come in on time, or at all - once I had to cancel the order.
Fingers crossed this comic gets included with my game!
@Blofse same. Well, Ireland.
Hope we get the comic.
My delivery date is 4th of December :')
Amazon says mine (with comic supposedly) will be here Monday. excited
I was looking forward to getting the physical Switch version before they pulled this code-in-a-box crap on us Europeans. This kind of thing should not be allowed. I guess I’ll grab the PS4 disc instead.
Note: the comic is manual size on both PS4 and Switch.
If you're getting this for the comic, I advise the PS4 version
@N64-ROX You need to call Capcom DE at +49 40-238303698
They will fax you the comics. Comic quality will depend on the fax paper you can get in 2024.
Good luck!
After seeing that in Europe we would only have a code in the box, I decided to get my copy from Amazon US which will come with a comic book.
I wouldn't take the risk to buy a digital version only.
Capcom pulled these games from the only store before and can surely do again so, no, I'm not taking the risk.
Horrible interior art.
@msvt It is supposed to, yes.
@Pipulitoch ha ha, to be honest it wouldn't surprise me if that were actually the case!
Can't wait to get mine tomorrow. Should arrive around the time I got out of work unless it came early and the mail pirate got it before I do.
Sadly mine is across the country, now with a big "shipment delayed" from Best Buy. All of yesterday it had the "arriving today", even though when you went in you could see it was actually set to arrive on 11/26.... I love modern day conveniences like having items shipped to you instead of just walking into a store on launch day. Took a nice 4 day week-end with thoughts of enjoying this game.
That is some really mid artwork.I doubt anybody who buys this collection is gonna read that book and are only getting it for its rarity and not for its story or artwork. I wish Marvel would capitalize on Marvel vs Falcon and give us a comic adaptation by veteran writers and artists.
@Blofse It is included. Mine arrived from the US yesterday, a few days ahead of expectation. The comic is tiny, of course, and it has that freshly printed smell.
