Capcom’s confirmed that Marvel Vs Capcom 2 will get an update version for PSN and XBLA this summer. There’s a first teaser video after the break.

Quick points:

1. It’s based on the Dreamcast code base – Capcom wanted to being the “best version” into the HD era, apparently.
2. There’s online play – Dur.
3. HD upscaling options – “Crisp,” “Smooth” and “Classic” visual settings will be included.
4. Widescreen – The gameplay area will be in a 4:3 field, while the viewing area will be widescreen. For purists and competitive play, a 4:3 option (with vertical bars on the left and right) will be included.
5. No unlocking – All 56 characters will be available from the start of play.

An XBLA version of Marvel Vs Capcom 2 is looking pretty much certain after Achievements for the title popped up here and ShopTo starting offering tournament sticks yesterday.

Capcom hasn’t confirmed the game as yet, but has already said there’ll be more 2D fighter reboots to come from the publisher following the release of the HD version of Street Fighter II.

More soon, hopefully. Thanks Gamerbytes and Blerk.

Evo 2009 will take place on July 17-19 in Las Vegas, the event’s confirmed.

The tournament-heavy gathering focuses solely on fighting games, the roster this year including Street Fighter IV, Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix, Soulcalibur IV, Marvel vs. Capcom 2, Guilty Gear XX Accent Core and Street Fighter III: Third Strike.

There’s more detail on the official site.

Thanks, Kotaku.

NeoGAF members have discovered that Marvel Vs. Capcom 2 has received an ERSB rating for both PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.

The natural assumption is that the arcade fighter will soon be making an appearance on Xbox Live Arcade and PlayStation Network, but nothing is concrete just yet.

Thanks, Kotaku.
