Launch teams
All teamsMARVEL Tōkon presents its roster as 5 teams of four — that is one row per team in the character select, and how most players first learn the 20-character lineup.
Spider-Man
Ms. Marvel
Star-Lord
Peni ParkerSpider-Man, Ms. Marvel, Star-Lord and Peni Parker — the street-level and cosmic side of the roster in one row. Two Spider-adjacent picks, Marvel's most prominent teenage hero and a Guardian of the Galaxy, and the team the character select opens on.View Amazing GuardiansFighting Avengers4 members
Captain America
Iron Man
Black Panther (Shuri)
HulkCaptain America, Iron Man, Hulk and Black Panther — the Avengers core, and the most recognisable four names on the launch roster. If you know one Marvel team going in, it is probably this one.View Fighting AvengersUnbreakable X-Men4 members
Storm
Magik
Wolverine
DangerStorm, Magik, Wolverine and Danger — the X-Men contingent, drawing on the mutant side of the Marvel roster rather than the Avengers side. Magik is the one character whose internal game data is confirmed mapped, which makes this team the section's first source of real engine values.View Unbreakable X-MenKnights of Doom4 members
Doctor Doom
Magneto
Green Goblin
CarnageDoctor Doom, Magneto, Green Goblin and Carnage — the villains' row. Four of Marvel's heaviest antagonists, and the counterpart to the Fighting Avengers on the other side of the character select.View Knights of DoomSamurai Outriders4 members
Ghost Rider
Blade
Deadpool
LokiGhost Rider, Blade, Loki and Deadpool — the antiheroes and the supernatural corner of the roster. The most tonally varied row on the launch roster, and the team the character select closes on.View Samurai OutridersThe full 20-character roster

MARVEL Tōkon: Fighting Souls is Arc System Works' 4v4 Marvel tag fighter, released on August 6, 2026 with 20 playable characters organised into 5 teams. Every one of the 5 teams carries exactly 4 members, which is how the character select is laid out — one team per row — so the team a character belongs to is the first thing you learn about them. Underneath the roster sit 46 documented system mechanics across 6 categories, and the team layer is the bulk of what makes the game its own: 8 tag mechanics and 11 distinct assist types, which is far more granular than the single assist button most tag fighters give you. Per-character movelists are not published here yet. The move rows exist in the reference data but ship without names, inputs or frame values, and we would rather show nothing than fill that gap with guesses.

Is Marvel Tokon 4v4?
Yes — MARVEL Tōkon is a 4v4 tag fighter, and the team layer is where most of its depth sits. Because a squad is four characters and the game's own teams are four characters each, an official team is a complete line-up rather than a shortlist. There are 8 separate tag mechanics for swapping characters in and out, plus 11 distinct assist types, so calling a teammate and swapping to one are different decisions with different costs rather than the same button used twice.
Who developed Marvel Tokon?
MARVEL Tōkon: Fighting Souls was developed by Arc System Works, the studio behind Guilty Gear and DRAGON BALL FighterZ, and published by PlayStation Publishing LLC in partnership with Marvel.
