Fans of the “Marvel vs. Capcom” game franchise have reacted angrily to the recently announced “Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection,” which has been revealed will not be coming to Xbox with the others.
The collection was announced during a Nintendo Direct presentation on Tuesday and will be released on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 and PC – but there's been no hint about a Microsoft console just yet.
Why Capcom isn't releasing it on Xbox is unclear, but it comes after several titles announced during the Summer Game Fest event confirmed they were skipping the Xbox platform.
At the time and even after the announcement, the hashtag 'No Xbox' continued to trend. As users point out, previous Capcom collections have always been on Xbox, and so they ask, why is this one different?
This is especially shocking since another Capcom collection, titled “Ace Attorney,” was also announced and is coming to Xbox.
“Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection” will include the following six games: “X-Men Children of the Atom,” “Marvel Super Heroes X-Men vs. Street Fighter,” “Marvel Super Heroes vs. Street Fighter,” “Marvel vs. Capcom Clash of Super Heroes,” “Marvel vs. Capcom 2 New Age of Heroes,” and “The Punisher.”
The collection will be released on its platform in the autumn.
