Oh man, today was a whirlwind, and I gotta spill the beans—PlayStation just dropped some wild news. You know, like, out of nowhere during this State of Play thing? So get this, PlayStation Studios, Marvel Games, and Arc System—yeah, those guys—they’re teaming up for this new Marvel tag team fighter. It’s called, uh, Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls. Or shall I say, MARVEL Tōkon: Fighting Souls—fancy, right? They’re saying it’ll hit PS5 and PC, like, in 2026. Ages from now or tomorrow, time’s a blur.
So, here’s the deal. It’s got all your comic book pals—Captain America, Iron Man, Spidey, Doctor Doom, you name it. They’re all in there, busting moves straight outta the comics. Fun fact, the sounds they make? Reminds me of slamming cabinet doors. Weird, I know.
Kazuto Sekine, the guy directing this madness, throws in his two cents, saying, “Oh, we made it so, you can just get in there, pick one hero, and boom—you’re set.” Like, thank goodness, ’cause who’s got the brainpower to juggle five characters? Not me. Or wait, maybe I do? Hmm.
Anyway, the twist? Most tag games are 2v2 or 3v3, right? Not this one. They’re going 4v4, Sekine says it’s to make everything crazier, pushing the genre forward or something. Imagine that chaos—like a food fight in a superhero cafeteria.
Oh, and they didn’t stop there. Sony tossed out a new gizmo—Project Defiant. Sounds all techie, doesn’t it? It’s a wireless fight stick, and I guess it’s got that PlayStation Link thingy for super low lag. They even made sure you can plug it in with USB-C if you’re old school. Not sure why that stuck with me, but whatever.
Okay, I’m rambling again. Anyway—wait, lost my spot. Never mind, Marvel’s new game’s coming, and it looks insane. Can’t wait!
