Video: Marvel vs. Capcom: Fighting Collection Spotlights Two More Games

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

Why couldn't they just release it physically the same exact day? I'm noticing the 'double dipping' practice more and more, as developers push the physical release months after the digital, which baits many gamers into getting both, paying double the price for the same game.

I'm getting it digitally, not waiting just over 2 months to get physical.

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.

It's also happening with The Plucky Squire and Pizza tower. Pizza Tower shadow dropped less than a weak ago, and now it's getting a physical release for Q1 2025, and Plucky Squire is launching digitally I think this Sept, and getting a physical in Feb 2025. Pikmin 1&2 HD ended up getting a physical copy a few months after the digital release as well. So Nintendo is just as guilty as Capcom.

It's a scummy practice that baits hardcore gamers into spending 2x the amount for the same game. They can't wait for the physical, so they buy it day one digitally, then months later they say "Funk it!" and grab the physical version too, only for the physical version to just rot on a shelf in their collection, while the digital 'convenient' version continues to get played.

If they can't release a physical version day one with the digital, or at least a week later than I'm just getting the digital copy and calling it a day. Never messing with Limited Run Games, Strictly Limited(etc) ever again either. Why on earth would i want to wait several months to receive a physical copy of Castlevania Dominus Collection, when it shadow dropped less than a week ago on Switch digitally?
