A possible release date for the Marvel vs Capcom Fighting Collection briefly appeared online before being deleted.
The game's page on UK retailer ShopTo listed a release date of November 22 before quickly removing it.
Before the removal, screenshots of the release date were posted on the ResetEra forum. VGC can confirm the legitimacy of the original listing.
It is unknown whether the listing was changed due to inaccuracies or because Capcom has not yet announced a release date.
The collection, announced earlier this year, will be released for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 and PC, but not for Microsoft consoles.
Marvel vs Capcom Fighting Collection will include the following six games:
- X-Men – Children of the Atom
- Marvel Superheroes
- X-Men vs Street Fighter
- Marvel Super Heroes vs Street Fighter
- Marvel vs. Capcom Battle of the Superheroes
- Marvel vs. Capcom 2 New Age of Heroes
- The Punisher
“For Capcom fans, fighting game enthusiasts, comic book and superhero fans, and everyone in between, Marvel vs Capcom Fighting Collection: Arcade Classics offers a timeless tribute to a legendary fighting game series with a diverse roster of iconic characters, enhanced features, and competitive gameplay,” said Capcom.
“Relive nostalgia or discover timeless classics for the first time, bringing fans of all generations together to celebrate Capcom's legendary fighting game series. Stay tuned for more information on the collection in the coming months.”
VGC recently had the opportunity to preview the upcoming collection.
“Although we've only seen a portion of what this collection offers so far, Marvel Vs. Capcom Fighting Collection: Arcade Classics is shaping up to be the triumphant return to form that fans have been clamoring for for years,” we wrote.
“The three games we tested are faithfully recreated, the controls feel great with a fight stick and controller, and the small additions to the gameplay experience are notable improvements.”
