Marvel Executive says MvC3 is a possibility

Kevin Feige

IGN reports that at San Diego Comic-Con 2008, President of Production at Marvel Studios, Kevin Feige, was asked if a new Marvel vs. Capcom game is possible someday. He replied:

“Yes. And maybe sooner than you think.”

The article goes on to mention that, since Tatsunoko vs. Capcom may not come to the U.S. due to licensing issues, the engine could be used to make MvC3; and in a relatively short amount of time.

Alright, this is too good to be true. We now have someone from Marvel hinting at creating Marvel vs. Capcom 3. Let’s get Feige and Yoshinori Ono in a room together so we can start resurrecting this beast!
