Powerful combos and colorful special effects in the release trailer for MARVEL Tōkon: Fighting Souls
A week before launch, the team at Arc System Works dropped a short trailer that flashes the core ideas behind their new fighter. Expect 4v4 clashes (yes, 4-on-4) with a starting roster of 20 well-known Marvel faces — more via DLC later. The single-player thread follows the Champion, an Elder of the Universe who hops planets hunting worthy opponents; Earth is next on his list, and its fate now hinges on a mix of heroes and villains willing to throw down.
Time to build the team you want and pummel foes in frantic 4v4 action! Pick from classic Marvel characters — 20 at launch, with extras planned. Each fighter is drawn in a vivid anime style and slotted into distinct teams.
Mix and match to find synergies, cook up combos, and test tactics (4v4 PvP and co-op ideas included). Battles play out on arenas that shift between iconic Marvel setpieces, sometimes mid-fight. Controls aim to be approachable: customizable inputs, classic/fast modes, and combo strings that are meant to be satisfying without endless memorization.
Local matches are supported, or join online lobbies that can hold up to 64 players and run standard battle types. Play through the story with different squads to pick up on character ties and backstory beats.
Arc System Works MARVEL Tōkon: Fighting Souls arrives August 6 on PC (Steam, Epic Games Store) and PlayStation 5. l10n: Russian text included.
