Why Marvel vs Capcom Fighting Collection Isn’t On Xbox Consoles

Marvel vs Capcom Xbox

When the Marvel vs Capcom Fight Collection was announced on Tuesday, it was met with overwhelming praise from fans around the world. The only problem was that Marvel vs. Capcom Fight Collection isn’t going to be available on Xbox consoles.

No, when it launches later this year, it’ll be available only on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 (playable on PS5), and Steam. But why not Xbox?

According to a new report from Windows Central, it has to do with Capcom’s MT Framework that the game’s are built on. The outlet’s source say that Capcom “has no pipeline for porting older MT Framework titles to Xbox’s modern system, which makes it more expensive to deliver the same titles than it would porting them to PlayStation 4, Switch, or PC.”

Insider Gaming has reached out directly to Microsoft and Capcom for comment on this report. Should a response be received, this story will be updated accordingly.

  2. No one cares besides barley anyone owns an xbox no one is paying 70 bucks for this trash can we please get new games already they should bring back other games like Mega Man Legends and Battle Network, fighting games don’t sell well and how would a new MvC perform with the old crap people want accessibility and single player content the whole Marvel and Capcom thing makes no sense anyway it won’t work as a single player story and crossover wise also doesn’t make sense besides Capcom killed most of their IP that was used to prop this up like Darkstalkers and Marvel is dead.

  4. This isn’t what people meant when they voted for a new VS game they want things like Shonen Jump VS Capcom, Kodansha VS Capcom, or Sega VS Capcom. The rumors were a while ago Sega and Capcom are doing something.

  5. Ok…this collection won’t really do better there I mean it’s not a big enough audience and to be fair it’s really old games no one wants to play. If this was like remakes of the PS2 Spider-Man games and Web Of Shadows, Friend Or Foe, Hulk, those games it would be awesome but this is just not interesting it’s just boomer stuff which this direct had some of with the NES stuff.
