Two new videos showcasing the last two characters (Rocket Raccoon and Frank West) are expected to be revealed shortly after.

Several gameplay changes are coming to this new version of the popular crossover fighting game.

All characters who have 8-way dashes have had this ability slowed down. No character can block during their air dashes, but aerial "X-Factor" has been added.

Also, the X-Factor's offensive power and the amount of time it is active has been adjusted on a per-character basis. The minimum damaging scale for this move has now been lowered to 35 percent. After correctly countering a Team Aerial Combo, players can now initiate a counterattack.

After a Snapback is performed, the amount of time that the snapped-in character cannot call assists has been increased. Overall meter building for characters has now been reduced to around 90 percent of what it was before.

Even more changes are present in the game.

Capcom's fighting game pits some of the most recognizable characters from it's and Marvel's universes. The "Ultimate" edition of the previous "Marvel vs. Capcom 3" release will offer more characters, stages and much more.

The online modes for the game will also see a significant upgrade to its current system.

"Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3" will be hitting stores on Nov. 15. It will be playable on the PlayStation 3 and XBox 360. A handheld version of the game will also come to the upcoming PlayStation Vita portable console.

The videos below reveal today's newest roster additions.
