FGC Sees a Revival Spark in Marvel vs. Capcom and Mortal Kombat Returns
An opinion piece argues Marvel vs. Capcom and Mortal Kombat are the two most missed fighting games in the FGC; a new, well-received entry for either could boost viewership and tournament attendance. Marvel vs. Capcom is highlighted as uniquely hype-worthy with no direct replacement, though Marvel Tokon exists as a separate game. For Mortal Kombat, MK1 (2023) didn’t receive expected support, and NetherRealm’s next project has been teased amid ongoing corporate changes (Netflix/Paramount), but a competitive MK game could drive publicity and showcase talent. The discussion is tied to StayMAD Podcast commentary.
