Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection: Arcade Classics has officially sold over one million copies.

Publisher Capcom recently made the announcement on its socials, thanking fans of the crossover fighting series for their support:

"Thanks to all of you, we have achieved global sales of 1 million copies," reads the translated post. "We look forward to your continued support for this title!"

The Marvel vs. Capcom series brings together heroes and villains from the rosters of each respective company in a crossover clash that fighting game fans adore.

Fast-paced and stylish, these are tag-team fighters, meaning you enter each bout with a team of characters rather than just one, swapping between them to take advantage of their unique move sets.

Marvel vs. Capcom hasn't received a new entry since the less than stellar MVC: Infinite, which broke the combo of uniformly beloved games. It dropped the ball so hard that many believed the series to be over, only for the retro collection to release last year and bring back the excitement.

It's clear there's still a lot of enthusiasm for MVC. Given Capcom's current run of form, we reckon a well-executed, brand new game would go down a treat.

However, it would have to contend with Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls, a PlayStation-published tag-team fighting game coming in 2026.

The game is in development at Arc System Works, a team responsible for other very well-received titles like Dragon Ball FighterZ, Guilty Gear Strive, and Granblue Fantasy Versus: Rising, to name a few.

Obviously, one huge difference is that Tokon focuses purely on Marvel characters, and doesn't have any crossover content with other properties.

The appeal of Spider-Man and Wolverine fighting with, or against, Ryu and Mega Man is something unique to Marvel vs. Capcom, so there's still room for it in a post-Tokon world. Whether it happens is anyone's guess, though.
