Game System
The game now adopts a Marvel vs Capcom 2 style, 3-on-3 match. It's no longer based on multiple rounds-- it's a single match game where the first person to beat all 3 of the opponent's characters, wins. The beta test is running at a 60 count. Although each count is longer than a second, it's still too short and most of the matches are ending up with time overs.
Noteable Differences from MvC2's tag team system: no assistance attacks, no guard cancel crossover, can't change member in middle of combo, no snapbacks. Team member's life doesn't recover when waiting in the background. When switching characters, it takes about a second for the new character to pop in. The character that pops in is opened to attacks until landing. There is a crossover attack (depletes a power stock), but it can't be used within a combo. However, if the crossover attack hits, the opponent will be opened to attacks for a while.
Super DMs are abolished, and there's a new thing that works in a similar fashion called the "Leader's DM". That is, the leader of the team can do a super DM with two power stocks. The first batter up in the match automatically becomes the leader.
Power meter starts of with 3 bars... Full. The meter's limit increases up to 5 bars each time a member is beaten.
Bosses/Hidden characters

Chizuru & Maki - The host of this year's tournament. Chizuru fights with her sister Maki, which is actaully an illusion of her late sister that she created
Zangis- A character that looks like a knight and fights like Zero. May be false info.

Adel- Full name Adelbeid? Said to be a young looking Rugal who has a genocide cutter, and shoots Reppukens out of his feet. Also has Rugal's Dark Barrier and Gigantec Pressure. Fights with three life bars. Possibly Rugal's son. The battle stage is called Sky Noah, which seems to contrast with Rugal's battleship that was named Black Noah.
