A few weeks ago, I went on a Twitter rant that detailed why–rather passionately–Capcom needed to include The Beyonder in Marvel vs. Capcom 3. It sparked a nice little back and forth between Twitters as we tried to determine if a god-like cosmic being could fit with the scopes of a fighting game. I supported The Beyonder’s inclusion because, well, the MvC series isn’t exactly known for precise balance.
Today, Siliconera reports that Marvel has filed a Secret Wars trademark in regard to video game-related product–the site even has a screenshot of the the filing. My initial thought was that this would relate to a Marvel vs. Capcom 3 DLC pack, but the trademark also covers sunglasses and cartridges, categories not at all associated with downloadable content.
Marvel, it appears, is plotting a standalone Secret Wars title. Ultimate Alliance 3 set on Battleworld, or something else entirely?
