Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection: Arcade Classics Will Feature The Punisher

The classic Punisher beat 'em up is returning in Capcom's upcoming fighting game collection.

Today's Nintendo direct was home to all sorts of cool announcements. For me, the coolest of them all was Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection: Arcade Classics, an upcoming collection of 7 of Capcom's classic Marvel arcade games. Six of those are fighting games, but the seventh is the co-op The Punisher beat 'em up! The collection is coming to PlayStation, Switch, and Steam. Xbox, for some strange reason, was left out of today's announcement.

The collection's seven games include: X-Men: Children of the Atom, Marvel Super Heroes, X-Men vs. Street Fighter, Marvel Super Heroes vs. Street Fighter, Marvel vs. Capcom, Marvel vs. Capcom 2, and The Punisher. That's a killer lineup! The Punisher arcade game has previously been ported to Sega Genesis, and the arcade version was included on the Marvel Super Heroes Arcade1Up cabinet. Other than that, the arcade version has never had a home release, so its inclusion in this collection is pretty special.
