More On: Marvel vs. Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds
Last week’s Tokyo Game Show brought us two more confirmed characters to the playable roster of Capcom’s Marvel vs. Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds. Capcom revealed everyone’s favorite webslinger Spiderman as well as the ultimate Resident Evil personality, Albert Wesker. Both character had long been rumored to be appearing in the game.

The addition of these characters brings the announced, playable roster to a total of 22 characters. Considering that the final version of the game will have “roughly 40“ characters, we are right about the half way point, give or take a few. Here is the confirmed lineup for the game thus far:
  • Albert Wesker
  • Amaterasu
  • Captain America
  • Chris Redfield
  • Chun Li
  • Dante
  • Deadpool
  • Doctor Doom
  • Dormammu
  • Felicia
  • Hulk
  • Iron Man
  • Morrigan Aensland
  • Ryu
  • Spiderman
  • Super Skrull
  • Thor
  • Trish
  • Tron Bonne
  • Viewtiful Joe
  • Wolverine
  • X-23
Wow, out of the 22 announced characters, 10 are completely new to the fighting genre. Keep up the good work Capcom as you are, in my humble opinion, assembling one of the greatest fighting game rosters ever... You can check out some gameplay videos of Spiderman and Wesker below:
