11 years have passed since the last Marvel vs. Capcom was released and that meant demand was ravenous among fans, and ”expectations were soaring.”

Capcom announce that 2 million copies have been shipped globally, certainly exceeding its predecessor thanks to the ”resurgence of the fighting game boom”.

”With an 11 year gap between the last entry in the Marvel vs. Capcom series, demand for a sequel was at an all-time high, and expectations were soaring. Capitalizing on the resurgence of the fighting game boom that began last year, Marvel vs. Capcom 3 was able to exceed its predecessor and ship 2 million units worldwide,” said Capcom.

Digital content has been unveiled by Capcom in the way of additional costumes and characters for the roster coming through Xbox Live and PlayStation Network.
