'Marvel vs Capcom 4' release date news: mid-2017 launch date seen; The Avengers characters expected

"Marvel vs Capcom 4" will be announced this weekend at the PlayStation Experience and everyone is getting ready to see the game in action. The upcoming game, this time, is expected to be different from the previous ones as it now focuses more on the X-Men rather than the Marvel heroes.

All players of the franchise have been immersing themselves in the game, but noticed that the title is focused more on X-men characters than on the Marvels. The first two titles were observed to have featured more of the mutant heroes, as well.

Capcom may have heard the feedback of the avid players as the "Marvel vs Capcom 4" will reportedly feature more of the Marvel heroes this time. This means, the members of The Avengers may be featured in the game, even those from the Guardians of the Galaxy, according to Polygon.

While gamers await the announcement for "Marvel vs Capcom 4," Capcom has also yet to confirm if the rumor about the Marvel heroes is true. The release date remains unknown for now; however, if the company will truly unveil the game at the PlayStation Experience event, then the title may be out for PlayStation 4 (PS4) and PC, similar to "Street Fighter V."

This might mean that Xbox One players will have to wait for the title to arrive to their console. Gadgets 360 wrote that if this happens, it would be odd for Capcom to let the game become unavailable to the console since "Street Fighter V" did not perform well in the market.

The release date, meanwhile, is forecasted to be in the second quarter of 2017 since "Resident Evil 7" is already slated for a January 2017 launch. The Evo 2017 fighting championship, meanwhile, is scheduled to be held in July 2017.

Aside from "Marvel vs Capcom 4," gamers are also expecting more details of "Resident Evil" at the PlayStation Experience.
