crap addition that was R. Raccoon.

Ms. Marvel is also extremely popular, her book is still selling great, and she has a visually distinct and interesting power set that'd be perfect for a fighting game. Definitely seems like one of the most obvious possible newcomers, along with Captain Marvel and Black Panther.

I think it's very easy to read too much into the whole "roster will be determined by what movies are coming out"; it definitely plays a factor, but it wasn't the only determining factor for MvC3's roster, and now that Marvel Studios has branched off from Marvel itself and become its own distinct entity, there's actually less of a reason to expect the roster to be impacted entirely by the movie line-up. They have a whole buncha other characters they want to promote too!

As much as I want to see cyclops I doubt they'll add him with how badly they've treated him

Spoiler, click to toggle visibilty

I mean they just killed him off and compared him to hitler smh.

I do wonder what X-Men will appear tho.

Marvel really wants people to care about Squirrel Girl (which they should! She's an amazing character!), so she's definitely on the short list for newcomers this time around.

This talk of new Marvel characters (Or rebooted ones anyways, today's Squirrel Girl is quite different than her first appearance)

While Squirrel Girl, in her first appearance, was certainly a thinly sketched character, there's a definite through line from that original appearance to the Dan Slott Great Lakes Avengers book, all the way to her solo series; where she feels like the same character throughout, but gradually expanded into one that can support a solo series.
