I've been really underwhelmed with what I've seen from Marvel vs Capcom: Infinite. Character models aren't great and the roster kind of stinks. There's no X-Men or Fantastic Four characters, and there's very few new characters outside of DLC. It's not easy getting excited for that.

I think Marvel would've been better off partnering with Capcom for an MCU-focused fighting game based on Avengers: Infinity War. The movie boasts a huge roster of characters that lends itself nicely to a fighting game, and there's enough time before the movie comes out for Capcom to make new characters (reusing animations and character builds from UMvC3 has to be a reason for the lack of new characters). Base alternate skins on the characters' appearances in other movies in the MCU and in the comics. DLC characters are MCU characters not in Infinity War like Ultron and Daredevil.

And if that game is successful, then Capcom makes a fourth Marvel vs Capcom game. That at least gives them a better excuse for not including X-Men and Fantastic Four characters than pettiness over the characters' film rights.
