Ultimate Marvel Vs. Capcom 3 Will Get 48 DLC Costumes

Capcom is anticipating high demand for Ultimate Marvel Vs. Capcom 3's downloadable costumes. In the coming months, they'll be releasing dozens of new costumes for the game's cast.

Each costume pack, containing four or five new outfits, will cost $4 or 320 MS Points. On March 6th, they'll release a Value Pack with all 48 costumes. The Value Pack costs $20, about half of what you'd have to pay to buy all of the costume packs individually.

The first DLC, dubbed the Rising Dead Pack, will arrive on November 22nd. It features a futuristic Ghost Rider and a Mega Man suit for Frank West among other outfits. Here's the full schedule of DLC for the next few months>

"These are in addition to the existing MvC3 costumes for Ryu, Chris, Dante, Thor, Captain America and Iron Man, plus if you buy the DLC characters Jill or Shuma Gorath you get their alternate costumes for free," said Capcom. "All of that content transfers over from MvC3 to UMvC3, so no, you don't have to buy the content again."
