The latest updates for "Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite" will feature new gameplay footage for DLC characters Black Panther and Sigma at New York Comic-Con 2017. Spider-Man will receive a new DLC costume when comic book fans pre-order the DVD of "Spider-Man: Homecoming" movie.
A YouTube user named Jako Man uploaded an off-screen gameplay footage of Black Panther facing-off against Sigma during his time in NYCC and it will give players some familiarity with each character's move set and how they can come up with strategies to use them properly in battle.
New DLC characters
Sigma and Black Panther were first featured in "Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite's" story mode, but they never became playable characters in the game. Capcom announced that the two characters are post-launch DLC fighters and they will be added to the roster on Oct. 17 alongside Monster Hunter.
Black Panther will utilize his speed and sharp vibranium claws to utilize fast-paced combos. He has the ability to air-dash and jump off walls making him an excellent choice to evade attacks and pounced on unsuspecting opponents.
As for Sigma, the Japanese game publisher described him as a slow-moving character with an imposing move set. The "Mega Man X" villain uses his energy sword to cut down enemies and open dimensional rifts to perform sneak attacks.
He can also counter enemy attacks using teleportation and his super move, "Doom Buster" can cause serious damage.
Sigma and Ultron will combine their powers with the Reality and Space Stones to form the game's final boss character, Ultron Sigma as they seek the remaining Infinite Stones to reshape the universe to their twisted image.
Other DLC characters in the game are Blak Widow, Winter Soldier, and Venom as their concept artworks were leaked online on Reddit.
The Superior Spider-Man
It seems that Peter Parker will get a new suit in "Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite" as video game fans will have a chance to become the Superior Spider-Man when they pre-order the "Spider-Man: Homecoming" DVD on the PlayStation Store or Xbox Live.
In the comics, Superior Spider-Man is actually Doctor Otto Octavius inside of Peter's body after the latter transferred his consciousness to cheat death. He became a hero after witnessing Peter's selfless acts of heroism and decided to use his intellect and newly acquired body to honor his legacy.
Otto's Spidey suit will feature four mechanical spider arms, upgraded web-shooters, razor-sharp claws, enhanced goggles, and mechanical spider-bots to fight crime.
