Capcom announced Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite during PSX 2016 and it will be available for the PS4, Xbox One and PC.

The latest details for "Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite" will feature new possible playable characters and DLC fighters leaked online.

It seems that gamings have been requesting some characters from both Marvel and Capcom to join the latest "Vs." sequel, "Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite" as a new line of fighters are being raised for consideration within the game.

For the Marvel side, gamers and comic book fans want to see the likes of Black Panther, Ant-Man, Blade, Loki, Gamora and Squirrel girl into the sequel, ComicVerse reported.

The gamers who want to see in the Capcom side want to see the likes of Asura from "Asura's Wrath", Jill Valentine and Leon S. Kennedy from "Resident Evil", Wizard of Karma in "Breath of Fire", Frank West in "Dead Rising", Rashid of "Street Fighter 5" and Arthur of "Ghosts N' Goblins", GameZone reported.

Meanwhile, the possible DLC characters for "Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite" have been revealed as 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.

Capcom first debut "Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite" during the PlayStation Experience event last weekend as the cinematic trailer featured Ryu and Mega Man X representing Capcom fighting against Marvel's own Tony Stark/Iron Man and Carol Danvers/Captain Marvel.

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.

It is also speculated that Thanos could be the final boss character in "Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite" due the involvment of the Infinity Stones in the sequel.

Players will be able to equip different Infinity Stones before a match, granting themselves different abilities and effects. An example of this is Ryu using the Power Stone to add more damage to his attacks, while Captain Marvel can increase her speed using the Time Stone.

Capcom added that "Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite" will feature a 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.

"Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite" will launch sometime in 2017 for the PS4, Xbox One and PC platforms.
