Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls Still Has Easter Eggs to Be Discovered

Automaton had a chance to sit down with Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls producer Takeshi Yamanaka and the game's director, Kazuto Sekine.

You can read the full interview by following the link above, but we'll outline some of the major points they hit upon.

Much of the interview concerns the reactions to the game and how Arc System Works reacts to the game's reception. Aside from obvious technical issues, it seems like the overall reception has been very positive, and devs are happy about players already spending dozens of hours in the game and taking note of the specific fusion of Japanese manga and western comics that ASW was going for.

A slightly more amusing story here is that the developers didn't expect to see characters like Spider-Man, Magik, Magneto, and Blade dominating the Combo Breaker tournament. With the regional difference, they are sure that the picks would look very different in Japan.

However, they are aware of the current character trends, where easy and strong character like Spider-Man and Magik are extremely popular in online play.

Another interesting note near the end is that the game's director saw a lot of compilations when it comes to numerous Deadpool references, but people still haven't found all of them, so you might wanna keep paying attention or wait for others to discover the real deep cuts.
