Marvel vs. Capcom 3 is in the newest Game Informer. Dante (Devil May Cry), Felicia (Darkstalkers), Deadpool and Captain America were listed as confirmed characters.
• The game is currently using Tatsunoko vs. Capcom style Light, Medium, and Hard attacks along with the Exchange button to be more accessible, but will retain stuff like Hyper Combo cancels, Snapbacks and assists. .
• The game will have the alpha, beta and gamma assist types, just like in Marvel vs. Capcom 2.
• The game has simplified launch attacks which are universally performed with one button, the Exchange button. This can also be pressed along with certain directions to slam opponents into the ground, leaving them susceptible to combos. Players can also hit the Exchange button in midair to tag in other team members on the fly. You can also counter exchange moves by guessing the correct exchange move to input at the same time as your opponent.
• Deadpool's teleportation device will comically malfunction if you spam his teleport move. Also, he breaks the fourth wall by beating his opponents with his health bar.
• Chris Redfield uses his weapons from Resident Evil 5, his shotgun and the "shock stick."
• Moves from the previous games seemed to have been retained.
• MvC3's characters were all created from scratch — you won't see recycled character models.
• A sort of cross-over aerial rave can be performed, where you can safely change your character in the middle of an air combo, using the exchange button.
• The flow of combat is just as intense and hectic as MvC2.
• Story mode is being slightly improved, with beginning and ending story bookends, along with in-game events to keep it fresh in players' minds. Producer Ryota Niitsuma insists that though this story is better than in other MvC games, it doesn't steal the spotlight from the action.
• Capcom is paying a very large attention to detail to make sure all the characters are very in-character and act like themselves.
Backgrounds will be lively. J Jonah Jameson is in a helicopter in the background of the Daily Bugle stage shouting and pointing at the players. There's also a parade in the background that has huge air balloons of characters like Spider-Man and Viewtiful Joe. Servbots and Tron Bonne in the background of the Megaman Legends stage.
