Marvel Tōkon: Fighting Souls Reveals Last 3 Playable Characters — and a Blink-and-You’ll-Miss-It Look at a PlayStation Icon

Marvel Tōkon: Fighting Souls has revealed the last 3 playable characters rounding retired its roster, and determination are a fig of fan-favorites successful determination arsenic good arsenic a speedy look astatine a PlayStation icon.

The 5th squad successful Arc System Works’ tag warring crippled is called Samurai Outriders, and it includes the antecedently announced Ghost Rider and 3 caller playable characters: Blade, Deadpool, and Loki.

The look astatine Deadpool, voiced by Nolan North, is peculiarly fun, arsenic it includes a fig of Easter eggs. We spot Deadpool execute his ain mentation of ‘Toasty!’ from Mortal Kombat, bash Johnny Cage's celebrated Ball Buster move, execute the Jack-O'-Pose from Arc System Works’ ain Guilty Gear series, and there’s adjacent a amusive motion to the instrumentality anticipation that the squad would beryllium called Midnight Sons.

But my favourite infinitesimal successful the trailer is simply a existent blink-and-you’ll-miss-it look astatine Polygon Man of PlayStation fame. At the 1:43 mark, Deadpool attacks with what helium calls “random bulls**t go!” and arsenic portion of that helium repeatedly hits his hostile with the geometric caput that is Polygon Man.

Polygon Man is simply a elephantine purple floating look made of geometric shapes who served arsenic the archetypal selling quality and intended mascot for Sony's PlayStation marque successful North America successful 1995 earlier being famously scrapped, and aboriginal resurfaced arsenic the main antagonist and last brag successful the 2012 crossover warring crippled PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale. So, possibly we tin accidental PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale, which includes Dante from Devil May Cry, shares a beingness with Marvel Tōkon: Fighting Souls? Sure, wherefore not?

Polygon Man confirmed for Marvel Tokon!

It’s a truly amusive summation for Marvel Tōkon: Fighting Souls, which is simply a PlayStation-published crippled acceptable for PlayStation 5 and PC connected August 6, 2026. As portion of today’s reveal, Sony besides announced that an unfastened beta is acceptable for PS5 and PC 24-26 July, which volition fto everyone effort the crippled earlier launch.

I’m peculiarly excited by the summation of Deadpool, not conscionable due to the fact that it’s a invited instrumentality to the quality for Nolan North, but due to the fact that I’m looking guardant to each the quality circumstantial banter. We perceive immoderate of that successful the trailer, erstwhile Deadpool goes up against Wolverine, for example. And of people you tin expect Deadpool to interruption the 4th wall.

Be definite to cheque retired IGN's interrogation with Arc System Works consecutive from the Evo warring crippled tourney to find retired more.
