Four new MVC3 characters revealed

Marvel villains and Capcom femme fatales.

Marvel villains Doctor Doom and the Super-Skrull, and Capcom fighters Chun-Li and Trish, have been added to the list of playable characters in upcoming fighting game Marvel vs. Capcom 3.

The quartet join Ryu, Wolverine, Morrigan, Iron Man, Hulk, Chris Redfield, Captain America, Deadpool, Dante and Felicia on the game's ever-growing roster.

The armoured Victor von Doom has tormented superhero team the Fantastic Four for years and years. He has a pretty face.

The Super-Skrull is an alien with the combined powers of the Fantastic Four, making him something of a bad-ass.

Street Fighter stalwart Chun-Li is the Queen of Kicks and, once again, has massive thighs. Don't say that to her face, though.

And Trish, from beat-em-up Devil May Cry, is sort of like a female version of Dante, in that she, too, has supernatural powers.

Marvel vs. Capcom 3, powered by Capcom's MT Framework engine (the one used for Resident Evil 5), is a three-on-three tag team fighter in the 2.5D style. It's due out on the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in Spring 2011.
