One of the most fondly remembered games in the competitive side of the fighting game community is Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3. This classic takes the iconic superheroes and villains of the Marvel and Capcom universes into an incredibly polished experience. Players can pit some of their favorite characters from either cast into three-on-three team based battles, with fan-favorites such as Spider-Man, Iron Man, Street Fighter's Ryu, and Devil May Cry's Dante being a part of the playable roster. With the game having an active fanbase, it's no surprise it also has an active modding community.

The modding community for Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 has grown ever since the game was ported to PC in 2017. While earlier mods for the game consisted of palette recolors or model swaps, there have been plenty of strides since then that make those mods seem antiquated. More specifically, the modding community has recently broken through the built-in limitations within UMvC3, allowing for more ambitious mods to be created. These include alternate character skins for Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 that have custom attributes and costumes.

These included Street Fighter 5's Rashid, Thanos, Psylocke, and many more with adjusted movesets that reflect the custom character added. The latest update to this mod added another Capcom character, who already made an appearance in Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite, the Monster Hunter.
