Gameplay
Like Marvel vs Capcom 2, this game features 3-on-3 fighting mechanics and displays a usage of hyper combos during gameplay. like the original, players can also execute tag-team specials and perform aerial combos and/or raves. However, new mechanics have been added, including:
- Ultra Hypers: Are used when a player's health is low and most likely used to cancel out their hyper combo special.
- EX Hit: Transforms character's combos into more powerful, faster versions of those combos.
- Groove Cancel: Allows the player to use their characters's own hyper combos more than once in gameplay.
- Aerial Hypers: Can be executed when one's health is moderate, only... They are the original versions of hyper combos, but in midair.
Also, the gameplay makes it seem more interesting and fun to play, since the previous installments lacked some easy ways in performing combos and executing hyper combos. Battles of Final Honor also is accessible through both PSN (Playstation Network) and WiiConnect24 because of online play. The "Network Mode" in Marvel vs Capcom 2 is more faster and dependable, and does not lag 70% of the time in this installment.
