Sony Interactive Entertainment and developer Arc System Works have announced that MARVEL Tokon: Fighting Souls will launch for PlayStation 5 and PC via Steam and Epic Games Store on August 6.

Storm, Magik, Wolverine, and Danger—“The Unbreakable X-Men”—have been confirmed as playable characters.

 

The Unbreakable X-Men

A reborn X-Men team, reassembled to face an approaching threat

This time, as the first team reveal trailer from our character introduction series, we unveiled the Unbreakable X-Men. As briefly mentioned at the beginning of the trailer, a new threat is closing in on Earth in the game’s storyline.

In response, the X-Men gather once more. However, due to a recent battle, many of the core X-Men members have been forced to withdraw from the front lines. With limited fighting strength available, Storm, guided by Charles Xavier, steps up as leader and forms a new team “The Unbreakable X-Men” to confront the looming danger.

  • Storm – The team leader. A mutant who can freely command the forces of nature, such as wind and lightning.
  • Magik – A young mutant highly skilled in both magic and the sword she creates herself known as the Soulsword.
  • Wolverine – Battle-scarred but unbroken, he fights alongside the young X-Men with Adamantium claws.
  • Danger – The AI of the Danger Room, once used by the X-Men for training, which has gained autonomy and taken physical form.

Viewed with suspicion and persecuted as “others,” mutants face hostility from humanity. Despite this, the reborn X-Men press on, driven by inner conflict as they strive to protect even the humans who persecute them from the looming threat.

What decisions the team will make, and how their story will conclude, is something we hope you look forward to discovering.

Revealing Episode Mode

Stepping back for a moment, the game will feature an Episode Mode.

In collaboration with Marvel Games, we’ve adapted the narrative, world, and characters specifically for this game. This game mode depicts Marvel heroes and villains, including the X-Men standing against a new threat.

Episode Mode blends American comics and Japanese manga into a new form of storytelling adapted for a modern video game format. We have collaborated with a renowned writer from the original Marvel comics, to help build the world and write the scenario.

The story is presented as motion comics, centered around manga illustrated by celebrated artists. The game will feature full voice acting across 10 languages (English, French, Italian, German, Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, Latin American Spanish, Japanese, Korean, Mandarin), and the game’s music and audio will support spatial audio with PlayStation 5’s Tempest 3D AudioTech. Beyond visuals and sound, the mode also uses the features of the PlayStation 5 DualSense Wireless controller to deliver a tactile storytelling experience. We hope you look forward to a new way of experiencing Marvel stories distinct from comics or films and made possible only through games.
