Capcom has just launched the Steam store page for MARVEL vs. CAPCOM Fighting Collection: Arcade Classics, confirming that this collection will be officially coming to PC.
This collection consists of of seven unique titles, including heavy hitters like X-MEN VS. STREET FIGHTER, and MARVEL vs. CAPCOM 2 New Age of Heroes. The collection also includes the rare beat ’em up game, THE PUNISHER.
Going into more details, the games that are available in this collection are: X-MEN CHILDREN OF THE ATOM, MARVEL SUPER HEROES, X-MEN VS. STREET FIGHTER, MARVEL SUPER HEROES vs. STREET FIGHTER, MARVEL vs. CAPCOM CLASH OF SUPER HEROES, MARVEL vs. CAPCOM 2 New Age of Heroes and THE PUNISHER.
This is the first time the Marvel vs Capcom fighting games find their way to the PC. Not only that but all of the games in this collection will support local and online play.
I have so many memories of playing these games in the arcade. And yes, I’ve already played most of them via MAME on PC. Still, it’s at least good to have proper native PC versions of them with online support.
What’s also interesting is that Capcom has shared some preliminary PC system requirements for this collection.
PC gamers will at least need an Intel Core i5-3470 or an AMD FX-6100 with 4GB of RAM and an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 470 or an AMD Radeon R7 260X. The collection will also require 4GB of free disk space.
Capcom recommends using an Intel Core i5-4460 or an AMD FX-8300 with 4GB of RAM and an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760 or an AMD Radeon R9 270X. And while the team recommends a Xinput compatible controller, it will most likely also support keyboards.
Enjoy!

Still, the PC platform won him over consoles. That was mainly due to 3DFX and its iconic dedicated 3D accelerator graphics card, Voodoo 2.
