The ultimate battle between comic books and Capcom will reignite once more from 19th September, as Marvel vs Capcom: Infinite has been dated. As part of a big blowout, the Japanese publisher has confirmed that eight new characters will join the release's roster at launch: Strider Hiryu, Chun-Li, Chris Redfield, Hulk, Thor, Hawkeye, Rocket Raccoon, and Ultron. That brings the tally up to 14 now, with Ryu, Morrigan, Mega Man X, Captain America, Iron Man, and Captain Marvel all already confirmed.
A new story trailer reveals the title's primary villain: Ultron Sigma, a mash-up between the Marvel baddie and the antagonist from the Mega Man X series. Unfortunately, the developer's already up to its old tricks, announcing that you'll be able to play as Sigma if you purchase the title's Season Pass; he'll be one of six new characters assuming you stump up.
You'll get the Season Pass with the Deluxe Edition of the game, which will set you back $89.99 in the United States. This version also comes with a couple of extra costumes: Gladiator Hulk and Command Mission X. Pre-ordering any version will net you the Warrior Thor and Evil Ryu threads, while there is a $199.99 Collector's Edition which comes with four interlinking dioramas from TriForce, plus LED-powered Infinity Stones and a copy of the aforementioned Deluxe Edition.
Phew, that's a lot of information to digest. Can we conclude with one comment, though: the art style sucks.

Didn't expect it to come out this year due to lack of info since PSX. The DLC practices is making me want to wait for the complete version too, like with Injustice.
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
I JUST WANT SPIDER-MAN w JOSH KEATON
(And squirrel girl :3)
In before "will it have an arcade mode?"
Are they seriously calling him Ultron Sigma? Sigmatron would have made more sense.
Awesome, most of the characters are in UMVC3 though. Definitely not a bad thing but hopefully we will see more newcomers and returning characters from past games like Captain Commando.
Sigmatron would've been way cooler lol Gonna wait for the Ultimate version or a big discount.
@ShogunRok Confirmed, it does!
@get2sammyb Unbelievable!
wonder if Spider-Man would be a ps4 exclusive character? 😁
going heavy on MCU look as well by the looks of it for certain characters
@GlynCR I suspect not though if Sony fancy a bit of the "exclusive content" have the Insomniac costume as PS4 exclusive.
Spider-Man
Venom
