MvC3 Leaks Flow Like Wine

According to SRK, a Twitter account has been leaking a bunch of MvC3 info. Click here to read in its entirety. The Twitter account has since been suspended. Highlights include:

  • Phoenix and Hsien-Ko to be unveiled at Jump Festa this weekend.
  • Phoenix plays like a fire-based Trish.
  • Phoenix resurrects as Dark Phoenix if KO'd with 5 bars.
  • A huge phoenix appears on-screen when she rises.
  • Human Torch was completed, but his constant flaming caused slowdown.
  • Phoenix essentially replaced Human Torch.
  • Frank West was completed but got cut due to slowdown issues involving zombies.
  • A Marvel character had to be pulled to even out the roster: Shuma got yanked.
  • Shuma is complete. Jill is not.
  • Yet to be revealed: Sentinel, Taskmaster, Akuma, Haggar
  • Last stage to be revealed (for 8 total): Metro City
  • Galactus is the final boss.
  • M.Bison was considered as a Capcom villain, but Akuma won out.
  • Akuma has some interesting graphical touches.
  • There will be DLC stages and outfits, in addition to characters.
  • Juggernaut was canned in favor of Sentinel.
  • "I Wanna Take You for a Ride" plays during the end credits.
  • Mega Man was rejected early on. "Offers nothing unique."
  • S-Kill fought to have Storm and Sentinel included.
  • Elektra was nearly in the game.
  • Taskmaster has "borrowed moves" [ala Seth?] and a bow and arrow.
  • Haggar is very Gief-like, but has Final Fight touches, like weapons.
  • DLC will be coming throughout 2011.
  • Who the DLC characters will be is a well-guarded secret at this time.
  • Tests of online play were "equally smooth" from San Mateo to Japan as within San Mateo.
  • Capcom wanted Cyclops, but Marvel didn't.

Yet Another "Leaked" MvC3 Roster



This latest list has some credibility, because it predicted Jill and Shuma as DLC characters before they were announced. As reported on SRK (and found on NeoGAF), we might expect the following characters:

MARVEL SIDE:

  • Galactus (Boss)
  • Taskmaster (Unlockable)
  • Sentinel
  • Storm
  • Phoenix / Dark Phoenix

CAPCOM SIDE:

  • C. Viper
  • Hsien-ko / Lei Lei
  • Mike Haggar
  • Akuma / Gouki (Unlockable)
Reportedly, Phoenix can perform a resurrection, ala Gill, if she is KO'd with a full super meter. When she comes back, she does so as Dark Phoenix.
