UMvC3 is absolutely one of if not the most fastest pace fighting game you'll ever play, it is super complex yet simple, it is easy to get into and hard to master, it is everything you'll need in a fighting game, a huge roster of 50 characters, with popular choices and weird ones which make the game so interesting, imagine Iron Man, Captain America and Thor losing to a dog..........whose actually a goddess but nobody needs to know that part in the match😂.

With 530 hours in the pc release, an extra 600+ hours on xbox 360 and another 400+ hours on xbox one I still dont have the words to describe this game to you, it is amazing, for a fighting game, if you want a story game this is most definitely not the game for you, if you just want fun and action then this game is perfect in every way, even if youre brand new to the game, you will almost always finish your session doing a damn incredible and visually pleasing combo, something that Marvel vs Capcom: Infinite failed to do.

At high levels this game requires you to be perfect in your execution, you can kill most of the characters of a single hit....but are you good enough to not drop it? Because if you do, you just gave your opponent the chance to kill you in their long ass combo so BE PERFECT.

Aside from all this, the modding community has been doing gods work, adding in characters such as Venom, Cyclops, Evil Ryu, Monster Hunter and so many more that the modded characters roster is now larger than the main games roster, so you'll be getting over 100+ characters if you play this game on PC, if you're unsure about these mods I high suggest you search UMvC3 Mods, theres not specific video will all the 50+ modded characters but you'll get a taste of a few, it is indistinguishable to tell what characters are modded and whats base game.

If you're planning to play this game online......please just don't, use an app called Parsec instead, you'll thank me for it, its easy to setup, its free and it lets you use any and every mod as Parsec runs of your personal game.

With the review done here are my personal notes: This game has been, and will always be my favorite game of all time, I got into gaming at the age of 4 when X-Men vs Street Fighter was out (which is essentially the first proper Marvel vs Capcom crossover game), the sounds of the game, the characters, the art style, the combos and the hyper carried that game for me, Marvel vs Capcom 2 was the love letter of that game afterwards, however UMvC3 changed the whole scene, and you know what, it actually works, as much as we all hate, Morrigan, Zero, Vergil and X-Factor, the game is just perfect the way it is, no character is unbeatable, theres just a few mountains to climb, and through EVO you can see that the most mid tier teams can take down the top tiers.

So I hope that someone eventually purchases this game thanks to this review, I personally have bought the game 5 times (1x: MvC3: Fate of Two Worlds on Xbox 360, 2x: UMvC3: 1st ones disc cracked because I played it so much that the case damaged the disc, 1x: UMvC3 on Xbox One and lastly 1x: UMvC3 on PC). And even then I bought the game for my friends on xbox and PC.

TL;DR: Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 (UMvC3) is an incredibly fast-paced and complex fighting game with a diverse roster of 50 characters. The game is easy to get into but challenging to master, providing a thrilling experience for both newcomers and seasoned players. The high-level gameplay demands precision, and the modding community has significantly expanded the character roster on PC creating a game that will keep you entertained through the years to come. ENJOY😊
