Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls vs Street Fighter 6
Pick Street Fighter 6 for a complete fighting package, or Marvel Tokon for anime-style combat if you can tolerate PC launch jank.
Updated 30d ago
Arc System Works' 4v4 tag chaos dethrones Marvel vs. Capcom's throne — but a dog-shit input buffer and broken assist spam keep it from being the clean kill.
Still the best fighting game to learn on, but the $40 box is a fraction of what the complete roster costs.

Shared scale — same months across the bottom, same player-count axis up the side, so the two lines are directly comparable. A shorter line means a younger game.
Key differences
Which one is for you?
Pick Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls if
- You loved Guilty Gear Strive and want a Marvel skin on that combo system.
- You're a die-hard Marvel fan who can overlook PC jank for exclusive content.
- You have a console, since the PC port's DRM and netcode issues are unresolved.
Pick Street Fighter 6 if
- You're new to fighting games and want the best tutorials and learning tools.
- Online play with rollback netcode and crossplay is your priority.
- You want a game that works well on PC from day one without crash issues.
Bottom line
If you're patient with technical problems and love anime-style combat, Marvel Tokon might appeal, but given its 48% review score and 2-hour story, wait for fixes. Otherwise, Street Fighter 6 at $18.26 is a safer, more complete choice.
