A new Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 mod has been revealed that adds Charlie Nash from Street Fighter to the cast of playable characters. Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 was released in 2011 and was well received with its frenetic gameplay, tag team system, and special moves like assist attacks and snapbacks. With characters like Deadpool and Viewtiful Joe, the game also stood out for adding online multiplayer matches, a first for the franchise.Another reason why Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3's popularity continues to this day is the modding community, which has been breaking the limitations of the 12 year old game. Mods enhance the gaming experience by expanding the roster of playable characters, bringing into Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 fighters that would not have been possible officially. Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 mods keep the game's vitality and its community engaged with new content, similar to other modded fighting games like Tekken 7.Modder tabs posted on Twitter a video showing the mod that adds Charlie Nash from Street Fighter to Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3. According to tabs, the mod is not ready, but they decided to reveal this newest work in celebration of the announcement of the EVO 2023 lineup. The video is short, and after showing the entrance of the two teams, it shows how the animations of Guile's best friend's moves are in-game. Two standout moments are Charlie using Sonic Boom and Flash Kick, two iconic moves of his skill set.
The modder has already added Cammy to Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 via a mod, bringing the former Shadaloo assassin to the game. Meanwhile, Charlie Nash's mod video generated a lot of positive reactions from the community, with several compliments on the tweet. One user emphasized how clean Charlie's animations are without the mod even being finished. Other Twitter users thanked for the work done by tabs and other modders, "giving fans the Marvel vs. Capcom 4 that Capcom/Disney won't."
The mod revealed by tabs is impressive, as even without being finished it already displays quality animations, which successfully imports Charlie Nash's skills to the Marvel vs. Capcom 3 visual style. Curiously enough, Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 still is a game much beloved by the community even though it was released more than 10 years ago. Meanwhile, Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite wasn't so lucky in captivating the players.
Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 is available now on PC, PS3, PS4, Xbox 360, and Xbox One.
