When Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite was revealed at PSX in December, only a small handful of character were revealed for the game. Since then, fans have been speculating at who would show up next in the iconic fighting series.

Today, it was revealed via NeoGAF that a press event for MvC: Infinite was recently held in Germany and a whole plethora of information was revealed.

So far it looks as if we'll be getting a healthy amount of iconic Marvel characters (both heroes and villains) as well as some fan favorite Capcom characters such as the legendary Chris Redfield from Resident Evil. Although these new characters have yet to be confirmed by Capcom, several reputable sources have reportedly confirmed that the roster is real.

Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite is expected to launch on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One later this year.
