First off, while speaking recently to EDGE, co-producer Peter Rosas indicated that the decision was made in part in order to further simplify the game, SegmentNext reported.

The decision to go from trios to duos is also expected to make "Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite" a little more accessible to those who may be trying out the series for the first time.
This is not the only time that developers have talked about the decision to go from three to two.
