==Story==
 +
An evil entity named Abyss has begun consuming life on Earth, holding it within a mysterious sphere that it possesses. A pirate named Ruby Heart, while searching for an ancient artifact called the Armor of Erosion, discovered Abyss and the devastation that it wrought upon the land. Unable to defeat it alone, she calls upon the strongest heroes from the Marvel and Capcom universes to unite and end the threat.

On the Dreamcast, content is unlocked in ''Marvel vs. Capcom 2'' through an in-game shop. While Western versions use a single in-game currency generated from playing the game normally, the Japanese version uses three currencies, with rewards generated from networked matches and by taking a [[VMU]] to a ''Marvel vs. Capcom 2'' arcade machine and playing the game there.

 +
''Marvel vs. Capcom 2: New Age of Heroes'' is the fourth installment in the ''Marvel vs. Capcom'' series of tag team fighting games. It is Capcom's first 2D fighting game since the original ''Street Fighter'' not to use their CPS arcade hardware, and it makes several significant changes from earlier entries in the series, such as three-on-three gameplay, a new character assist system, and a simplified control scheme. The character artwork uses traditional 2D sprites, while backgrounds and visual effects are rendered in 3D. The change to the NAOMI and Dreamcast hardware enabled a much larger roster, incorporating all of the characters from the previous entries as well as several new entrants. However, some character-specific elements were cut back, such as unique musical themes and endings for each character. Most of the characters, an extra color scheme for each character, and alternate versions of stage backgrounds must now be unlocked through earning experience points by playing the game. The Dreamcast version featured online play through Capcom's [[Matching Service]] network, though only for the Japanese version.
 +
 
 +
Players select a team of three characters to compete in a one-on-one battle, as opposed to teams of two characters in the previous entries. At the start of the match, the first selected character is controlled by the player, but the player can switch to one of the other two characters at any point during the battle. Characters have separate vitality bars, and while one character fights, the team members not in play slowly regenerate the red portion of their life gauges (but this recoverable portion is lost if the team member is tagged back in before it recovers). A match lasts until one team completely runs out of vitality for all three fighters; if the match timer reaches zero before either team is knocked out, the team with the most remaining health is declared the winner.
 +
 
 +
The game introduces a more refined version of the assist systems from previous games, which allows players to tag in other team members at any point during the match. Unlike the unplayable assist characters from ''[[Marvel vs. Capcom: Clash of Super Heroes]]'', the game reintroduces a similar system to ''[[Marvel Super Heroes vs. Street Fighter]]'', where players can call upon one of their off-screen team members to perform a single special move to aid them. Each playable character possesses three different types of assists, denoted by the Greek letters α, β, and γ. One of these assist types is chosen for each character that a player selects. Every character has a different selection of assist moves, which are given basic descriptions (such as Projectile Type, Anti-air Type, or Heal Type).
 +
 
 +
Characters move with {{left}} and {{right}}. They dash with {{right}} {{right}} (or {{X}}+{{Y}}) and backstep with {{left}} {{left}} (or {{left}}+{{X}}+{{Y}}). They jump upward with {{up}} and jump behind and ahead with {{upleft}} and {{upright}}. Characters can Super Jump high into the air with {{down}} {{up}}. They crouch with {{down}}. Instead of using six attack buttons separated into three pairs of low, medium, and high-strength punches and kicks, as was traditionally done in Capcom fighting games, the game uses a setup of four attack buttons and two assist buttons. Punches are done with {{X}} (light) and {{Y}} (hard) and kicks are done with {{A}} (light) and {{B}} (hard). If a light attack connects with an opponent, pressing another light attack button performs a medium attack. Special moves for each character are done by pairing specific directional combinations with an attack button.
 +
 
 +
The game supports chain combos in a similar manner to the ''[[:Category:Darkstalkers|Darkstalkers]]'' games, where moves can be linked in a sequence from light to hard and punches to kicks (light punch into light kick, medium punch into medium kick, then hard punch into hard kick). Not all characters can perform the full chain since some attacks push away or knock down the opponent. Characters can initiate an air combo, called an Aerial Rave, by pressing {{downright}} with the hard punch or kick button (or {{downleft}} if facing left) when next to an opponent. This launches the opponent high into the air, which can be followed up with {{up}} to pursue the opponent for a midair combo.
 +
 
 +
Blocking is done by holding the D-Pad away from the opponent, which can also be done in the air. While blocking, characters can repel the attacker (sometimes called an advancing guard) by pushing both punch buttons simultaneously. Characters can perform a taunt with {{hold|{{A}}|{{Start}}}}, which is a short animation during which the character is vulnerable to attack. Throws and grabs are done by holding {{left}} or {{right}} when next to an opponent and pressing a hard punch or kick button. Characters can perform throws in the air as well. Throws cannot be blocked, but characters can land safely out of a throw by pressing the same motion as a throw, which greatly reduces the damage taken. It is also possible to roll on the ground after falling from a throw or other attack by pressing {{QCB}} {{punch}} (or {{QCF}} {{punch}} if facing left).
 +
 
 +
At any time during the match, the player can execute the Variable Attack by pressing the light punch and kick buttons simultaneously ({{X}}+{{A}}) for the first partner or the hard punch and kick buttons simultaneously ({{Y}}+{{B}}) for the second partner. This causes the partner character to jump into battle with an aerial attack, followed by a taunt (during which they are vulnerable to attack), replacing the current character. The player can also execute a Variable Assist by pressing one of the dedicated partner assist buttons, {{L}} for partner A or {{R}} for partner B. This causes the partner character to quickly jump into battle, perform an assist ability, and jump back out, without switching characters. The assist ability depends on the character and the assist type chosen when the character was selected. Assist characters take extra damage if struck by an opponent. Partner A is the character whose vitality bar is right under the current character, while Partner B is the character whose vitality bar on the bottom; switching characters swaps the order of the two characters.
 +
 
 +
Similar to prior installments, as characters deal and receive damage, a colored meter at the bottom of the screen known as the Hyper Combo gauge gradually fills. When the gauge is full, it increases in level, up to five levels, then resets. When the gauge is at level 1 or higher, a character can perform a Hyper Combo with a special button combination (typically a directional motion with two punch or kick buttons). These moves do high damage if they successfully connect with an opponent (and often do additional damage if the player presses the attack buttons rapidly while they are being performed). This costs one level of the gauge. Players can also now perform "delayed Hyper Combos," where one character initiates a Hyper Combo, then one or both of the partner characters jump on screen to perform their own Hyper Combos at the same time. This is done by performing the Hyper Combo inputs for the second and third characters during the first character's Hyper Combo.
 +
 
 +
Players can perform a special counterattacking technique called a Variable Counter after blocking an opponent's attack with {{QCBD}} (or {{QCFD}} if facing left) and the partner A or partner B button, which summons the partner character to jump in and attack the opponent. This switches the characters and costs one level of the gauge. Players can also perform a Variable Combination, where the player's entire team performs a Hyper Combo simultaneously, by pressing both partner buttons ({{L}}+{{R}}) simultaneously. This costs two levels of the gauge.
 +
 
 +
Finally, the game introduces a new ability called the "snap back," which is a close-ranged attack that banishes the opponent's active character, forcing the opponent to switch to another character and disabling the use of that character (including for assist attacks) for a short duration. This costs one level of the gauge. Snap backs are performed with {{QCF}} (or {{QCB}} if facing left) and the partner A or partner B button. Only one character can be banished at a time; banishing one character when another is already banished makes that character immediately available for use again.
 +
 
 +
===Modes===
 +
The Dreamcast version of the game has multiple modes:
 +
*'''Arcade Mode:''' A single-player mode where the player faces seven other teams before battling Abyss in a two-part battle. A second player can challenge the first by pressing {{Start}}, with the victor of the match continuing the game. There are eight difficulty levels for computer-controlled opponents.
 +
*'''Vs Mode:''' A two-player mode where players can choose their characters and battle each other in best of three matches, with the ability to set a handicap for each player and choose any stage. The game keeps track of wins, losses, and draws for each player.
 +
*'''Training Mode:''' A practice mode where the player can choose three characters to play and three characters to fight against. The player can set the whether the dummy opponent is non-hostile, hostile (with adjustable difficulty), or controlled by a second control pad. The player can also toggle unlimited Hyper Combo gauge use (vitality is always unlimited), the number of delayed Hyper Combos possible (3 or unlimited), and whether to show attack data (damage inflicted by the last attack, total damage done, and the longest combo).
 +
*'''Secret Factor:''' This mode shows the player's experience points, shop points, total play time, which is tracked and saved to a [[VMU]]. Shop points are earned from experience points and can be spent in the Store to unlock characters, color schemes, and alternate stage backgrounds. Unlockables can also be traded with another VMU. The Japanese version uses three types of points: N-Points, earned by playing the arcade version (which is compatible with Dreamcast VMUs); D-Points, earned by playing the Dreamcast version; and V-Points, earned by playing online multiplayer. However, these were consolidated into a single category of points for the Western versions.
 +
*'''Network Battle:''' The Japanese version featured online play though Capcom's [[Matching Service]] dial-up matchmaking service.
  
−
As no forms of online play are supported outside of Japan, and the arcade cabinet significantly rarer, this feature was dropped in the overseas editions of the game (and indeed all future ports to other platforms).
+
===Assist types===
 +
Each character has three selectable assist types. This decision primarily affects the Variable Assist and Variable Counter abilities that the character can offer, but it also determines the Variable Combination ability for many characters. Assist types can be any of the following:
 +
*'''Air Throw Type:''' An aerial grab that tries to catch an airborne opponent for an unblockable slam. There is only one ability of this type in the game, Zangief's Aerial Russian Slam.
 +
*'''Anti-air Type:''' An attack that hits airborne opponents, usually rising upward, such as Psylocke's Psi-Blade Spin or Cammy's Cannon Spike.
 +
*'''Balance Type:''' A combination of the character's other two assist moves, using one for the Variable Assist and one for the Variable Counter. For example, Morrigan's Anti-air Type is the Shadow Blade and her Projectile Type is the Soul Fist, so her Balance Type is a Soul Fist for the Variable Assist and the Shadow Blade for the Variable Counter.
 +
*'''Capture Type:''' A ranged attack that stuns the opponent, such as Spider-man's Web Ball or Ruby Heart's Rafale Cannon.
 +
*'''Dash Type:''' An side-to-side charging attack, such as Captain America's Charging Star or Sakura's Shouoken.
 +
*'''Enhance Type:''' A support ability that improves a characteristic of the active character for a short duration. There are only two abilities of this type in the game: Amingo's Defense-Up Fruit and Ruby Heart's Power-Up Orb.
 +
*'''Expansion Type:''' An advancing attack that can hit multiple times, such as Gambit's Cajun Slash or Ken's Tatsumaki Senpuukyaku.
 +
*'''Ground Type:''' An attack against a grounded opponent that covers a wide area, such as Silver Samurai's Hyakuretsuto or Strider Hiryuu's Ame no Murakumo.
 +
*'''Heal Type:''' A support ability that restores some of the active character's red health. There are only three abilities of this type in the game: Amingo's Life-Up Fruit, Jill's Life-Up, and SonSon's Life-Up Peach.
 +
*'''Launcher Type:''' A close-ranged normal attack that knocks the opponent into the air for an Aerial Rave combo. Examples include Iron Man's standing hard kick and Jin's crouching uppercut.
 +
*'''Projectile Type:''' A projectile attack, such as a fireball or a beam. Examples include Cable's Viper Beam and Mega Man's Charged Shot.
 +
*'''Throw Type:''' An attempt to grab the opponent for an unblockable throw. Examples include Anakaris' Miira Drop and Rogue's Power Drain.
 +
*'''Variety Type:''' An irregular move particular to the character, such as Iceman's Ice Avalanche or Felicia's Cat Spike.

==History==
 +
===Legacy===
 +
The game was ported to the [[PlayStation 2]] and [[Xbox]] in 2002. While the PlayStation 2 version allowed players to compete against one another via USB modem connections (but only in Japan), the Xbox version did not feature Xbox Live support. Like the Dreamcast version, 24 characters are unlocked initially, and the remaining 32 characters must be unlocked by earning experience points.
 +
 +
[[Backbone Entertainment]] ported the game to the [[PlayStation 3]] and [[Xbox 360]], released over each console's online store in 2009. These ports unlock all characters from the start and add sprite filtering options and widescreen support. They also supported online multiplayer in all regions, unlike previous versions of the game. However, both versions were delisted in 2013 following the expiration of Capcom's licensing contracts with [[Marvel]].{{ref|https://www.polygon.com/2013/12/15/5213184/ultimate-marvel-vs-capcom-3-leaving-psn-and-xbla}}
 +
 +
''Marvel vs. Capcom 2'' would be the last 2D fighting game featuring Marvel characters to be released by Capcom. Following its release, Capcom lost the use of the [[Marvel Comics]] license, putting the series on a decade-long hiatus.
 +
 +
Capcom would eventually reacquire the rights from Marvel (now under [[Disney]] ownership) and released the sequels ''Marvel vs. Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds'' in 2011 for the [[PlayStation 3]] and [[Xbox 360]]; ''Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3'' in 2011 for PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, [[PlayStation Vita]], [[PlayStation 4]], [[Xbox One]], and [[Windows PC]]s; and ''Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite'' for [[PlayStation 4]], [[Xbox One]], and Windows PCs in 2017.
 +
 +
==Versions==
 +
On the Dreamcast, content is unlocked in ''Marvel vs. Capcom 2'' through an in-game shop. While Western versions use a single in-game currency generated from playing the game normally, the Japanese version uses three currencies, with rewards generated from networked matches and by taking a [[VMU]] to a ''Marvel vs. Capcom 2'' arcade machine and playing the game there.
 +
 +
As no forms of online play are supported outside of Japan, and the arcade cabinet significantly rarer, this feature was dropped in the overseas editions of the game (and indeed all future ports to other platforms).

Marvel vs. Capcom 2: New Age of Heroes (マーヴル vs. カプコン2 ニューエイジオブヒーローズ) is a Sega NAOMI and Sega Dreamcast fighting game and a sequel to Marvel vs. Capcom: Clash of Super Heroes.

Story

An evil entity named Abyss has begun consuming life on Earth, holding it within a mysterious sphere that it possesses. A pirate named Ruby Heart, while searching for an ancient artifact called the Armor of Erosion, discovered Abyss and the devastation that it wrought upon the land. Unable to defeat it alone, she calls upon the strongest heroes from the Marvel and Capcom universes to unite and end the threat.

Gameplay

Marvel vs Capcom 2 DC, Full Character Select.png

Character select

Marvel vs. Capcom 2: New Age of Heroes is the fourth installment in the Marvel vs. Capcom series of tag team fighting games. It is Capcom's first 2D fighting game since the original Street Fighter not to use their CPS arcade hardware, and it makes several significant changes from earlier entries in the series, such as three-on-three gameplay, a new character assist system, and a simplified control scheme. The character artwork uses traditional 2D sprites, while backgrounds and visual effects are rendered in 3D. The change to the NAOMI and Dreamcast hardware enabled a much larger roster, incorporating all of the characters from the previous entries as well as several new entrants. However, some character-specific elements were cut back, such as unique musical themes and endings for each character. Most of the characters, an extra color scheme for each character, and alternate versions of stage backgrounds must now be unlocked through earning experience points by playing the game. The Dreamcast version featured online play through Capcom's Matching Service network, though only for the Japanese version.

Players select a team of three characters to compete in a one-on-one battle, as opposed to teams of two characters in the previous entries. At the start of the match, the first selected character is controlled by the player, but the player can switch to one of the other two characters at any point during the battle. Characters have separate vitality bars, and while one character fights, the team members not in play slowly regenerate the red portion of their life gauges (but this recoverable portion is lost if the team member is tagged back in before it recovers). A match lasts until one team completely runs out of vitality for all three fighters; if the match timer reaches zero before either team is knocked out, the team with the most remaining health is declared the winner.

The game introduces a more refined version of the assist systems from previous games, which allows players to tag in other team members at any point during the match. Unlike the unplayable assist characters from Marvel vs. Capcom: Clash of Super Heroes, the game reintroduces a similar system to Marvel Super Heroes vs. Street Fighter, where players can call upon one of their off-screen team members to perform a single special move to aid them. Each playable character possesses three different types of assists, denoted by the Greek letters α, β, and γ. One of these assist types is chosen for each character that a player selects. Every character has a different selection of assist moves, which are given basic descriptions (such as Projectile Type, Anti-air Type, or Heal Type).

Characters move with Left and Right. They dash with Right Right (or X+Y) and backstep with Left Left (or Left+X+Y). They jump upward with Up and jump behind and ahead with Up-left and Up-right. Characters can Super Jump high into the air with Down Up. They crouch with Down. Instead of using six attack buttons separated into three pairs of low, medium, and high-strength punches and kicks, as was traditionally done in Capcom fighting games, the game uses a setup of four attack buttons and two assist buttons. Punches are done with X (light) and Y (hard) and kicks are done with A (light) and B (hard). If a light attack connects with an opponent, pressing another light attack button performs a medium attack. Special moves for each character are done by pairing specific directional combinations with an attack button.

The game supports chain combos in a similar manner to the Darkstalkers games, where moves can be linked in a sequence from light to hard and punches to kicks (light punch into light kick, medium punch into medium kick, then hard punch into hard kick). Not all characters can perform the full chain since some attacks push away or knock down the opponent. Characters can initiate an air combo, called an Aerial Rave, by pressing Down-right with the hard punch or kick button (or Down-left if facing left) when next to an opponent. This launches the opponent high into the air, which can be followed up with Up to pursue the opponent for a midair combo.

Blocking is done by holding the D-Pad away from the opponent, which can also be done in the air. While blocking, characters can repel the attacker (sometimes called an advancing guard) by pushing both punch buttons simultaneously. Characters can perform a taunt with HOLD A START , which is a short animation during which the character is vulnerable to attack. Throws and grabs are done by holding Left or Right when next to an opponent and pressing a hard punch or kick button. Characters can perform throws in the air as well. Throws cannot be blocked, but characters can land safely out of a throw by pressing the same motion as a throw, which greatly reduces the damage taken. It is also possible to roll on the ground after falling from a throw or other attack by pressing Down Down-left Left P (or Down Down-right Right P if facing left).

At any time during the match, the player can execute the Variable Attack by pressing the light punch and kick buttons simultaneously (X+A) for the first partner or the hard punch and kick buttons simultaneously (Y+B) for the second partner. This causes the partner character to jump into battle with an aerial attack, followed by a taunt (during which they are vulnerable to attack), replacing the current character. The player can also execute a Variable Assist by pressing one of the dedicated partner assist buttons, L for partner A or R for partner B. This causes the partner character to quickly jump into battle, perform an assist ability, and jump back out, without switching characters. The assist ability depends on the character and the assist type chosen when the character was selected. Assist characters take extra damage if struck by an opponent. Partner A is the character whose vitality bar is right under the current character, while Partner B is the character whose vitality bar on the bottom; switching characters swaps the order of the two characters.

Similar to prior installments, as characters deal and receive damage, a colored meter at the bottom of the screen known as the Hyper Combo gauge gradually fills. When the gauge is full, it increases in level, up to five levels, then resets. When the gauge is at level 1 or higher, a character can perform a Hyper Combo with a special button combination (typically a directional motion with two punch or kick buttons). These moves do high damage if they successfully connect with an opponent (and often do additional damage if the player presses the attack buttons rapidly while they are being performed). This costs one level of the gauge. Players can also now perform "delayed Hyper Combos," where one character initiates a Hyper Combo, then one or both of the partner characters jump on screen to perform their own Hyper Combos at the same time. This is done by performing the Hyper Combo inputs for the second and third characters during the first character's Hyper Combo.

Players can perform a special counterattacking technique called a Variable Counter after blocking an opponent's attack with Left Down-left Down (or Right Down-right Down if facing left) and the partner A or partner B button, which summons the partner character to jump in and attack the opponent. This switches the characters and costs one level of the gauge. Players can also perform a Variable Combination, where the player's entire team performs a Hyper Combo simultaneously, by pressing both partner buttons (L+R) simultaneously. This costs two levels of the gauge.

Finally, the game introduces a new ability called the "snap back," which is a close-ranged attack that banishes the opponent's active character, forcing the opponent to switch to another character and disabling the use of that character (including for assist attacks) for a short duration. This costs one level of the gauge. Snap backs are performed with Down Down-right Right (or Down Down-left Left if facing left) and the partner A or partner B button. Only one character can be banished at a time; banishing one character when another is already banished makes that character immediately available for use again.

Modes

The Dreamcast version of the game has multiple modes:

  • Arcade Mode: A single-player mode where the player faces seven other teams before battling Abyss in a two-part battle. A second player can challenge the first by pressing  START , with the victor of the match continuing the game. There are eight difficulty levels for computer-controlled opponents.
  • Vs Mode: A two-player mode where players can choose their characters and battle each other in best of three matches, with the ability to set a handicap for each player and choose any stage. The game keeps track of wins, losses, and draws for each player.
  • Training Mode: A practice mode where the player can choose three characters to play and three characters to fight against. The player can set the whether the dummy opponent is non-hostile, hostile (with adjustable difficulty), or controlled by a second control pad. The player can also toggle unlimited Hyper Combo gauge use (vitality is always unlimited), the number of delayed Hyper Combos possible (3 or unlimited), and whether to show attack data (damage inflicted by the last attack, total damage done, and the longest combo).
  • Secret Factor: This mode shows the player's experience points, shop points, total play time, which is tracked and saved to a VMU. Shop points are earned from experience points and can be spent in the Store to unlock characters, color schemes, and alternate stage backgrounds. Unlockables can also be traded with another VMU. The Japanese version uses three types of points: N-Points, earned by playing the arcade version (which is compatible with Dreamcast VMUs); D-Points, earned by playing the Dreamcast version; and V-Points, earned by playing online multiplayer. However, these were consolidated into a single category of points for the Western versions.
  • Network Battle: The Japanese version featured online play though Capcom's Matching Service dial-up matchmaking service.

Assist types

Each character has three selectable assist types. This decision primarily affects the Variable Assist and Variable Counter abilities that the character can offer, but it also determines the Variable Combination ability for many characters. Assist types can be any of the following:

  • Air Throw Type: An aerial grab that tries to catch an airborne opponent for an unblockable slam. There is only one ability of this type in the game, Zangief's Aerial Russian Slam.
  • Anti-air Type: An attack that hits airborne opponents, usually rising upward, such as Psylocke's Psi-Blade Spin or Cammy's Cannon Spike.
  • Balance Type: A combination of the character's other two assist moves, using one for the Variable Assist and one for the Variable Counter. For example, Morrigan's Anti-air Type is the Shadow Blade and her Projectile Type is the Soul Fist, so her Balance Type is a Soul Fist for the Variable Assist and the Shadow Blade for the Variable Counter.
  • Capture Type: A ranged attack that stuns the opponent, such as Spider-man's Web Ball or Ruby Heart's Rafale Cannon.
  • Dash Type: An side-to-side charging attack, such as Captain America's Charging Star or Sakura's Shouoken.
  • Enhance Type: A support ability that improves a characteristic of the active character for a short duration. There are only two abilities of this type in the game: Amingo's Defense-Up Fruit and Ruby Heart's Power-Up Orb.
  • Expansion Type: An advancing attack that can hit multiple times, such as Gambit's Cajun Slash or Ken's Tatsumaki Senpuukyaku.
  • Ground Type: An attack against a grounded opponent that covers a wide area, such as Silver Samurai's Hyakuretsuto or Strider Hiryuu's Ame no Murakumo.
  • Heal Type: A support ability that restores some of the active character's red health. There are only three abilities of this type in the game: Amingo's Life-Up Fruit, Jill's Life-Up, and SonSon's Life-Up Peach.
  • Launcher Type: A close-ranged normal attack that knocks the opponent into the air for an Aerial Rave combo. Examples include Iron Man's standing hard kick and Jin's crouching uppercut.
  • Projectile Type: A projectile attack, such as a fireball or a beam. Examples include Cable's Viper Beam and Mega Man's Charged Shot.
  • Throw Type: An attempt to grab the opponent for an unblockable throw. Examples include Anakaris' Miira Drop and Rogue's Power Drain.
  • Variety Type: An irregular move particular to the character, such as Iceman's Ice Avalanche or Felicia's Cat Spike.

Characters

The game features 56 playable characters (if both versions of Wolverine are counted separately), which remains the largest roster of any Capcom fighting game (though it was nearly matched by Street Fighter X Tekken in 2012, which has 55 characters).

Every character from X-Men: Children of the Atom, Marvel Super Heroes, X-Men vs. Street Fighter, Marvel Super Heroes vs. Street Fighter, and Marvel vs. Capcom: Clash of Super Heroes returns, with the exception of palette-swapped hidden characters and the Japan-only joke character Norimaro.

Availability

In the arcade version, 28 characters are unlocked by default, while the remaining 28 must be unlocked by earning experience points. Every 100 experience points gains a level, and every four levels unlocks a character or an extra color scheme for an existing character.

In the Dreamcast version, 24 characters are unlocked by default, while the remaining 32 can be purchased from an in-game store using points earned from playing the game.

Bosses

Marvel vs Capcom 2, Sprites, Abyss, Abyss.gif
 Abyss
Abyss is an ancient and mysterious creature that was sealed away in an underground temple in ancient times. It seeks to devour all life in the world. It is the final boss of the game and has three forms: the first is wearing the Armor of Erosion, the second is a humanoid liquid form, and the final form is a giant ooze monster. It is the only wholly original boss in the series and the only one with no dialogue.

Stages

Stages are chosen randomly in the Arcade Mode but can be chosen manually in the Vs Mode. The final fight with Abyss takes place in the Temple stage. The Training Room stage is used for the Training Mode.

History

Legacy

The game was ported to the PlayStation 2 and Xbox in 2002. While the PlayStation 2 version allowed players to compete against one another via USB modem connections (but only in Japan), the Xbox version did not feature Xbox Live support. Like the Dreamcast version, 24 characters are unlocked initially, and the remaining 32 characters must be unlocked by earning experience points.

Backbone Entertainment ported the game to the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, released over each console's online store in 2009. These ports unlock all characters from the start and add sprite filtering options and widescreen support. They also supported online multiplayer in all regions, unlike previous versions of the game. However, both versions were delisted in 2013 following the expiration of Capcom's licensing contracts with Marvel.[15]

Marvel vs. Capcom 2 would be the last 2D fighting game featuring Marvel characters to be released by Capcom. Following its release, Capcom lost the use of the Marvel Comics license, putting the series on a decade-long hiatus.

Capcom would eventually reacquire the rights from Marvel (now under Disney ownership) and released the sequels Marvel vs. Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds in 2011 for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360; Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 in 2011 for PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, PlayStation Vita, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Windows PCs; and Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Windows PCs in 2017.

Versions

On the Dreamcast, content is unlocked in Marvel vs. Capcom 2 through an in-game shop. While Western versions use a single in-game currency generated from playing the game normally, the Japanese version uses three currencies, with rewards generated from networked matches and by taking a VMU to a Marvel vs. Capcom 2 arcade machine and playing the game there.

As no forms of online play are supported outside of Japan, and the arcade cabinet significantly rarer, this feature was dropped in the overseas editions of the game (and indeed all future ports to other platforms).
