The Latest from Capcom

Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3:

The newest update on Marvel vs Capcom 3. It will also feature a new life bar which does not look as good as the first one but looks more practical since you can only use the X-factor once per match. The update will be released in November of this year. Rumored extra characters in the Capcom side are Phoenix Wright, Vergil, Nemesis, and Frank West. And on the Marvel side we have Nova, Iron Fist, Doctor Strange and Rocket Raccoon. Of all the new characters I never expected them to include Rocket Raccoon. I used to collect that comic book when I was a kid, it's a bit torn up now but I still have it.

Character List:


Monster Hunter:
Monster Hunter Portable 3rd HD:
Monster Hunter Portable 3rd will be released in HD for the Sony PS3. Data can be interchanged between the PSP and the PS3. It will support stereoscopic 3D if you are one of the lucky people who has a 3D TV. Release date is on August 25 of this year.

Monster Hunter the Real:
Universal Studios Japan will have a Monster Hunter display from August 8 to the end of September of this year. It will include a full scale 20m silver Rathalos, 1:1 scale Weapons and Armor, The players home from Monster Hunter 3rd, The gathering hall which also includes the hot springs (MHP3rd), the poogie and more. Wow, if I had the money, I'd make my flight reservations to Japan right now. Getting to play MHP 3rd in an actual Gathering Hall would be quite the experience.

Monhun Nikki Poka Poka Isle Mura G:
The sequel of  Monhun Diary Poka Poka Isle will be released on August 10 of this year.

Something I never knew existed:
Airou x Hello Kitty:
A collaboration with Sanrio was announced on March 16, 2010. Sanrio will also produce limited edition plush dolls based on the two crossover costumes. First editions of the Felyne Village game will come with a product code which can be entered into a draw to win 1 of 100 (50 Felyne, 50 Kitty) plush dolls or 1 of 1000 phone straps.

Sengoku Basara 5th Anniversary Releases:
Time sure flies by, the Sengoku Basara franchise will be releasing two new titles as part of their 5th anniversary. Sengoku Basara 3 Utage for the PS3 and Wii, and for the PSP Sengoku Basara: Chronicle Heroes.

Nazo Waku Mansion:

The game seems to be similar to Wario Ware which takes full advantage of the 3DS hardware. Release date in Japan will be in August 4, 2011. No confirmation for a US or European release.

Asura's Wrath:

CyberConnect 2 and Capcom's newest game collaboration Asura's Wrath looks pretty awesome. The game will be powered by the Unreal Engine 3 instead of Capcom's own MT Framework engine.

According to the game's producer Kasuhiro Tsuyachiya, "Asura's Wrath takes elements from Asian mythology and blends them with science fiction. In the game, Asura is a demigod fighting to reclaim his daughter from the deities who kidnapped her and banished him from earth."

The game looks like the God of War crossed with Hokuto Musou and God Hand. Release date is not yet confirmed, but it seems they will be pushing it somewhere in 2012.
