It’s been more than eight months since Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls was first revealed<\/a>, but there haven’t been any more character reveals since then<\/a>.
While we haven’t gotten to see any new fighters yet, it appears we now know how many in total are going to be in Marvel Tokon at launch.<\/p>\n
The Steam store page for Marvel Tokon<\/a> was seemingly just updated with some interesting new details included.<\/p>\n
And the biggest one is of course how many Marvel icons are going to be in the game upon release.<\/p>\n
“It’s time to build your dream team and break some spirits in blistering 4v4 fighting action. Choose from an expanding roster of 20 iconic Marvel characters at launch, each rendered in a bold new anime-inspired art style and members of their own unique teams of equally impressive heroes and villains,” reads the about section now for Tokon.<\/p>\n
So there we apparently have it. Marvel Tokon will have 20 fighters available since they don’t say something like more than 20 or around 20.<\/p>\n
Choose from an expanding roster of 20 iconic Marvel characters at launch, each rendered in a bold new anime-inspired art style and members of their own unique teams of equally impressive heroes and villains<\/p>\n
This is very likely building up to new Marvel Tokon reveals later this week at the big State of Play event<\/a> from PlayStation.<\/p>\n
Up until now, we’ve only known that Captain America, Iron Man, Storm, Doctor Doom, Star-Lord, Ms. Marvel, Spider-Man and Ghost Rider would be in the game.<\/p>\n
Since that’s only 8 characters, it means we still have 12 more left to go left to be announced.<\/p>\n
20 fighters is probably smaller than many players were hoping to see at launch as a 4v4 fighting game, but we have been seeing tag fighters go with smaller rosters to start lately.<\/p>\n
2XKO infamously said they were only releasing with 10 characters<\/a> last year (though they ended up including 11) while Invincible VS will have 18 heroes and villains<\/a>.<\/p>\n
There’s obviously no shortage of Marvel icons Arc System Works could pick from, but now we know there are limited spots open to get in at release.<\/p>\n
Characters like Wolverine, Hulk, Thor, Fantastic Four, Cyclops, Doctor Strange, Scarlet Witch, Deadpool, Black Panther, Ant-Man, Thanos, Jean Grey, Captain Marvel, Hawkeye, Venom, and Gambit would be popular picks though not everyone is going to get in from the jump.<\/p>\n
With the backing of PlayStation and Marvel at least, there should be no shortage of post-release support in terms of DLC characters, so many more will come later.<\/p>\n
It remains to be seen, however, how quickly those new fighters will be added to Tokon and just how long the game will be updated.<\/p>\n
Another detail included in the Steam page now is confirmation that PC users will need to have a PlayStation account in order to play Tokon online.<\/p>\n
There will also be a single-player episode mode to delve deeper into the cast members.<\/p>\n
While there’s no release date set for Marvel Tokon, we can at least narrow down a bit when the fighting game should be coming in 2026.<\/p>\n
