Critic Reviews for Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls
Marvel Tōkon: Fighting Souls is a smart marriage of classic tag fighter staples and modern design, creating an excellent fighter anyone can enjoy.
Innovating on the tag fighter formula, Marvel Tōkon has a little something for everyone. If only the PC version was up to par with console.
It’s rare when a fighting game manages to tick virtually every box, from excellent fighting mechanics to fantastic teaching tools to a worthwhile story mode and beyond, but Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls comes about as close as a game has gotten since Street Fighter 6.
Its gorgeous style, incredible roster, and genuine evolution of the tag-fighting genre make me confident in finally being able to crown 2026's best fighting game.
A fighting game's impact is difficult to determine at launch due to balancing updates and the community's approach to it. Given the package Arc has delivered here, though, Marvel Tōkon is a more than worthy successor to Marvel vs. Capcom and Dragon Ball FighterZ. I believe it has the potential to become a fighting game mainstay for years to come.
Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls feels like a homecoming. Marvel heroes and villains are once again beating each other up in tag-based battles, and I am loving the experience of jumping in and figuring out new strategies. Rather than lean on old tropes, Arc System Works elected to put its own spin on the idea, and what they’ve cooked up sets a new bar for future tag fighters.
A vivid Marvel anime world unfolds with handpicked teams, episodic lore and modes that push players to experiment and adapt.
