[up][up]oh that's Doom the Big Bad of the game.

The Hydra token thought ie maybe a tease for Zemo or Zola?

Im pleasantly surprise with Bucky.

Ngl, when i saw him get announced, it was kinda underwhelming. Dudes with guns are not exactly super interesting but his arm being like a tentacle thingy that pulls you over AND his ult being repeatable looks really fun.

Also, he feels like a Spencer form Bionic Commando in a way. Damn, sometimes you just can't escape Marvel vs Capcom Infinite tongue

That bit with him leaping off a cliff to pull an enemy with him and then zipping back to the ledge was great. Looks like he's been taking lessons from Spider-Man.

Is Cap a tank though? He should be a healer that works off raw inspiration.

Cap's interactions are so wholesome.

Except for Punisher's which is just sad, as Frank is clearly fanboying for Cap only for the latter to (understandably) completely denounce him. Ooof.

Is there a video of Winter Soldier's interactions with everyone too? Curious to see how far along the "just grumpy > totally brainwashed" line Bucky is.

The Hydra token Doom was playing with is, according to sources like Marvel Heroes leaks seems to be hinting at the Hydra Erebus base being the next map to be announced

Oh cool Psylocke's design for Rivals is based on her feudal Japan AU look Demon Days. Makes sense with the multiverse setting.

I really wish the answer to that was as uncomplicated as "Both".

British woman Betsy Braddock was body-swapped with a Japanese woman named Kwannon and went by Psylocke. They recently swapped back, with Betsy now going by Captain Britain and Kwannon staying as Psylocke.

Oh that is good. I like how instead of having random straps of material on her arms and legs, her clothes have little slits to replicate the effect.

Im just hoping she has her iconic Psi-Blade alongside that katana.

Psylocke Trailer.

I like it. I wonder if that sword is actually the Psychic Katana she had at one point?

Alright, Just read up on Demon Days.

So this isn't Betsy or Kwannon, but Sai, the character who was Psylocke in that book then?

Or is this Psylocke a Composite of all of them?

Psylocke has honestly been so many characters, and had so many damn powers (Betsy is now Captain Britain, and I'm not even sure of everything that Kwannon does right now) that they could probably just mash them all together, especially since this game is all about Alternate Universes.

And that she doesn't seem to have the energy blade, just her katana.

I guess that's cool.

But I really like this look. I wouldn't mind Kwannon taking on a few beats from it.

Given how loose they've been on where they're taking each of the characters from it wouldn't surprise me if it's more like their own take on Demon Days, or their own adaptation of it or something.

Biggest thing pointing that way for her is her voicework: like Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3 she's given a distinctly British accent....which parses very well for Betsy but makes far less for Sai. Whether that's just a stylish choice, potential pragmatism because they intend to give her Captain Britain costumes, or some kind of Composite Character deal we'll see.

It be interesting if Sai is intended to be a version of Kwannon, with her getting a Kwannon skin later on.

And Betsy will be her own separate character later on.

Would explain if Sai doesn't have the butterfly energy blade as that's more Betsy's invention than Kwannon's. Granted Sai has butterfly wings so for all we know she possibly has the psychic knife as an attack, it just wasn't shown yet.

Betsy can still be Captain Britain, but that's weird if they never tackle the original.

There's gonna be a playstation showcase in a few hours. i wonder if they're gonna show a new trailer there
