The latest game details for "Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite" will feature the X-Men and Fantastic Four as DLC characters and a physcal copy of "Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3" next year.
Several rumors are making rounds regarding the possible DLC for Capcom's latest entry to the "Vs." saga, "Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite" as NeoGaf username Ryce claim that the fourth title will feature X-Men and Fantastic Four characters.
This is probably one of as few cases where releasing these characters as DLC make likely make sense, as Capcom probably signed a separate deal for them. While the validity of the post is still in question, it is a known fact that X-Men characters such as Wolverine, Storm and Magneto have appeared in several crossover games from "X-Men vs. Street Fighter" to "Marvel vs. Capcom 3", while Doctor Doom, Super Skrull and Galactus are the only Fantastic Four characters to have ever been featured in the sequel, WCCFTech reported.

In addition, Capcom revealed the sequel's first gameplat during the Capcom Cup which also feature Steve Rogers/Captain America and Morrigan from the "Darkstalkers" series.
"Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite" adds the use of the Infinity Stones in its gameplay as layers will be able to equip different Infinity Stones before a match, granting themselves different abilities and effects. Unfortunately, Capcom has yet to explain all of the differences between these powers and what the benefits and drawbacks.
There is also a single-player Arcade, Training, and Mission mode, as well as a cinematic Story Mode that puts players in between both universes as they fight to the top to take on the game’s new villain who is revealed to be at the end of the cinematic trailer.
