** Princess Celestia
** Princess Luna
** Gilda
** Zecora
** Spike
** Big Macintosh
** Little Strongheart
** Braeburn
** Rover/other Diamond Dogs.
** Philomena
** The Cutie Mark Crusaders. [[AllYourPowersCombined possibly as]] [[StanceSystem one fighter]].
** Night Mare Moon (Probably as an SNKBoss as well)
** Doctor Whooves (with inevitable ''Series/DoctorWho'', references. Specifically from the [[Characters/DoctorWhoTenthDoctor Tenth Doctor]] because of how much the two were compared).
** One or more of the Wonderbolts, such as Spitfire or Soarin'.

** Rainbow Dash would be the game's equivalent of [[Franchise/StreetFighter Ryu]], a basic version of the[[Shotoclone Shotoclone]]. [[TheRival Lightning Dust]] would be a risky character, and would be more agile, and stronger, but harder to control, and would take more damage. Gilda would have similar but noticeably different moves, similar to [[VideoGame/StreetFighterAlpha Sakura]]

[[WMG: If the game was allowed to continue, we would have had an update for every season]]
-----
* Or every other season at least. The second update could have had Shining Armor, Cadance, Chrysalis, Discord, etc. While the third had King Sombra and/or Lightning Dust.

[[WMG: In another world, Hasbro could have rebooted the project instead of canceling it]]
-----
* And we would have had a ''VideoGame/ThemsFightinHerds'' character as a GuestFighter. (Or maybe even a full on [[MassiveMultiplayerCrossover crossover]].)

Its most likely that anything that resembled settings in ''Friendship Is Magic'' will have to be changed by necessity. Equestria had heavy influences from Medieval Europe, The Southern U.S (especially the Old West) and Greek culture. To distance itself away from FiM, they'll be dropped. But what kind of new settings will be used? It really depends on the species they choose for the fighters.

* In a sharp contrast to the "rustic, old fashioned" setting that FiM had, it'll have a futuristic look instead. Combined with the entry above, it could be something similar to ''VideoGame/AsurasWrath'' or ''VideoGame/{{Okami}}''.

It seems like with the C&D. It'll have to end up having almost nothing to do with ponies entirely. This would of course, mean that the FiM ponies will be replaced with entirely new characters (may not even be ponies!) and the setting will be a bit different. With Lauren Faust on board, it might have the same "feel".

* While M6 aren't allowed to use ''My Little Pony'' characters anymore, they might still be able to use Faust's character. True, she was created as an original character for ''MLP'', but you can't exactly hold a copyright claim on a winged unicorn species, since it has been used before in other fictions. All M6 would have to do is remove the cutie mark so it won't hold any connection to ''MLP''. (Yeah, I realize that this will probably never happen, but a guy can dream, can't he?)
