A tip from a user on the NeoGAF Forums revealed that the Entertainment Software Rating Board has recently rated Marvel vs. Capcom 2 with two new Platforms added to it’s listing. Joining the PlayStation 2 and the original Xbox are the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, which would seem to indicate that the title will be coming to Xbox Live Arcade and the PlayStation Network.

Of course, just because the ESRB rated the game doesn’t mean it’s a sure thing but further proof indicates that a MvC2 port is currently in development. Using one of our Xbox 360 debug kits at my company, I was able to spot Marvel vs. Capcom 2 on Microsoft’s PartnerNet, the alternate Xbox Live network used by developers to beta test game content downloads.

Sharing information about content available on PartnerNet supposedly breaches the PartnerNet Non-disclosure agreement so I’m reluctant to post a screen shot. Either way, I’m convinced MvC2 will be resurrected very soon. Those of you with existing copies of MvC2 should definitely sell while the price of the game is still high!
