Sep 9, 2024Marvel Fighting Collection is the package that all fans of the saga have been waiting for for many years. Each chapter of the series is re-proposed with a modern netcode, interesting interventions in the quality of life field and a Museum mode full of surprises and goodies. However, the cumbersome presence of Marvel vs Capcom 2 risks overshadowing almost all of the other products in the collection, characterized by a certain physiological redundancy but capable of effectively representing the evolution of one of the most iconic franchises in the history of video games. Too bad for the absence of crossplay and combo challenges for the various characters.
