It’s been a few months since the sublime Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls released, and while it’s had its issues on PC, I’ve personally loved playing it. (What a game!)

Earlier in the year, dev Arc System Works announced Phoenix Cyclops as the first of four Year 1 Pass combatants – and we’ll get a proper look at the newcomer in action, courtesy of a trailer set to release tomorrow, 7th October.

Phoenix Cyclops, as the name indicates, is an alternate version of character Scott Summers infused with the fire of Phoenix Force. The character first debuted in the 2012 Avengers vs. X-Men comic event.

While this game did sell well at launch on the PS5, it struggled to maintain momentum a little bit – and I think its poor PC port ultimately hurt its reputation.

Here’s hoping the introduction of Phoenix Cyclops – alongside some well-timed patches – can slowly help to revive the release’s fortunes, as it’s a great game at its core.
