Marvel vs. Capcom 3 adds Viewtiful Joe and Dormammu

August 18, 2010 10:20 AM

After being teased in trailers and other promotional material, Capcom has finally revealed Viewtiful Joe and Dormammu have been added to the roster for its upcoming, crossover fighter.

First introduced to gamers in 2003, Viewtiful Joe was the brainchild of the same team that brought the world Okami--another franchise represented in Marvel vs. Capcom 3. The quick-witted character also appeared in Capcom's other crossover series, Tatsunoko vs. Capcom: Ultimate All Stars.

Although Joe is a lighthearted kind of guy, Dormammu is as sinister as they come. The bane of Dr. Strange's existence, Dormammu is an immortal that wields immense mystical powers. Oh, and his head is constantly on fire, which has to be part of the reason he's always in a bad mood.

Marvel vs. Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds is set to launch on the Xbox 360 and PS3 next year.

Dormammu perhaps better replacement for previous Doc Strange villain, obscure character and abstract omnipotent entity Shuma-Gorath from MvC2.
