The Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection bundles several foundational crossover tag fighters into a single PS5 package, which is something worth knowing about if you are building a fighting game library. I played Marvel vs. Capcom 2 with friends taking turns on the controller years ago, and having that history accessible on current hardware is genuinely good. The caveat is that these are preserved arcade experiences, not modernized competitive releases. The onboarding reflects that age. If you want a current ranked ladder, look elsewhere. If you want a concentrated piece of tag-fighter history with online play attached, this is the best way to access it on PS5 right now.
