Overview

  • Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls was unveiled at Sony’s State of Play on June 4, showcasing Arc System Works’ new 4v4 tag team format.
  • Teams of four Marvel fighters can be swapped mid-battle to execute combo attacks and backup assists with a few button presses.
  • Developers built the mechanics so mastering a single character grants full access to the team’s synergies, welcoming both new and veteran players.
  • Iconic heroes and villains—including Spider-Man, Captain America, Iron Man, Doctor Doom, Storm, Ms. Marvel, Star-Lord and Ghost Rider—are reimagined in Arc’s cel-shaded, Japanimation-inspired style.
  • The game is slated for release on PlayStation 5 and PC in 2026, with additional details on stages, modes and the online experience due later.
