Maximilian Dood's Marvel vs. Capcom Infinite Mod Will Be Free and Has a Beta Available Now
Three months ago, popular fighting game Twitch streamer Maximillian Dood announced a Marvel vs. Capcom Infinite fan project that sought to give the once-troubled 7-year-old fighting game a much-needed facelift. Now, not only has the community-driven mode made a ton of progress, but it also has a playable beta that shadow-dropped yesterday.
Maximilian Dood announced his Marvel vs. Capcom Infinite mod, now minted as Marvel Vs Capcom Infinite & Beyond, in a lengthy YouTube video on his channel. In the hour and 46-minute video, Maximilian detailed the mod and its changes in comparison to the game’s original release.
“The only way you can play other people online with these balance changes is if the other person also has it,” Maximilian said in the video.
While the mod is still a ways away from being complete, a beta for the game is available to download on GameBanana. Detailed in the mod’s patch notes are character gameplay changes and a feedback submission form for players to report bugs they encounter. Once the mod is complete, it will be free to download.
