Tokyo Game Show has begun, bringing with it a ton of gaming news and excitement over the next few days. Like many other industry events around the world, TGS has days open to the public – September 23 ^rd and 24 ^th – and that means fans from around the globe will travel to Chiba, Japan to get their hands on not just the latest games, but all sorts of cool swag and products to purchase! Capcom will be there too, with plenty of items available for purchase right at the show. Read on for just a handful of what you can find at the Capcom Goods Shop, located in Hall 10!

A monster-sized selection of items are available for Monster Hunter! A selection of items featuring the Monster Hunter: World emblem are available for sale, including shirts, keychains, and mugs. You can also grab a sticker set from B-SIDE LABEL featuring the Anjanath, a brand-new monster for Monster Hunter: World , and the ghillie suit, a useful item when you need to hide in a pinch. Monster Hunter fans can also dig into hoodies, jackets, plush toys, and more to complete their collection (or their armor set)!

A great selection of Street Fighter products will be available, including B-SIDE LABEL sticker sets featuring your favorite “World Warriors,” keychains, and a 30 ^th anniversary t-shirt featuring Akuma.

Got a selection of good things on sale, stranger. Celebrate the history of Resident Evil from the original game all the way to the modern day with mugs bearing the logos of S.T.A.R.S. and Umbrella, and t-shirts celebrating both BIOHAZARD 7 (Resident Evil’s name in Japan) and the free Not a Hero DLC coming out this December. Stay healthy and hydrated with a first aid thermo bottle, too. You wouldn’t want your skin to get… itchy….

Celebrate the pure platforming of the Blue Bomber’s adventures with retro-styled Mega Man collectables! Featuring classic designs and iconic 8-bit styles, t-shirts, keychains, and tote bags are all available for sale. The B-SIDE LABEL stickers feature some great callbacks, including Mega Man jumping and shooting, and an E Tank sticker swapping out the classic blue canister for dozens of 8-bit sprites.

There’s even more available at the Capcom Goods Shop, including B-SIDE LABEL stickers featuring Amaterasu from Okami and a selection of characters from Dai Gyakuten Saiban, the Japan-only side story series to the Ace Attorney series. There’s even more beyond what you’ve seen in this post, so if you’re at TGS, be sure to stop by the Capcom Goods Shop to see for yourself!

The Capcom Goods Shop is located in Hall 10, which can be easily found from the central entrance. If you aren’t at the show, don’t worry! We’ll be procuring some of the above products to give away in the future, so keep an eye on our Twitch streams , Twitter , and Facebook !

Face front, True Believer, and get ready to compete in Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite – Battle for the Stones, an epic competition taking place this December!

Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite – Battle for the Stones will see titanic forces collide as the seven EVO champions from the past and a new group of nine qualifiers fight in a competition unlike any you’ve witnessed before! As the name suggests, the Infinity Stones play a vital role in this clash against the EVO legends. On the road to the “Battle for the Stones,” there are six official Infinity Stone Tournaments all over the world that will each represent one of the Stones. Those who wield one of the Stones will gain a special tournament rule-bending power they can activate during the “Battle for the Stones” Finals in Anaheim, CA on December 9-10, 2017. Outside of these Infinity Stone Tournaments, there will also be three regional online qualifier tournaments (that do not feature Infinity Stones) for the EU, LATAM and NA regions, making the top 16.

Top 16 for the “Battle for the Stones” will comprise of:

• Seven EVO champions
• Six Infinity Stone bearers from Infinity Stone Tournaments around the world
• Three online tournament winners

The winner of Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite – Battle for the Stones will be rewarded with a special one-of-a-kind trophy that represents the Battle for the Stones!

As previously mentioned, Infinity Stones will grant actual abilities that can be used outside of the typical “in-game” competition to give players an advantage over their opponent! Each Infinity Stone power will be revealed at its corresponding Infinity Stone Tournament.  Be wary, for if you lose the fight with a Stone in hand, you’ll need to hand it over to the winner of the match and return to being a mere mortal.

With Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite releasing on September 19 ^th , we wanted to showcase the game with a special exhibition series that reflected the otherworldly and compelling elements that Marvel vs. Capcom is known for. Check out the Capcom Unity website and @capcomfighters on Twitter as we countdown the weeks to the “Battle for the Stones” with player profiles, detailed breakdowns of the rules, and explanations of each of the six Infinity Stone Powers that the Stone Bearers will be able to use at the “Battle for the Stone” Finals.

Join us as we celebrate the launch of Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite with this one-time series that shows the world that RULES ARE NOT SET IN STONE!

Infinity Stone Use:

Patrick Kulikowski: Kicking off this week’s Community Highlights is a truly magical Ace Attorney cosplay coming out of the Tracon 2017 convention in Tampere, Finland. Cosplayer @moemoefever nailed the energetic Trucy Wright’s look to a ‘T’! From the cape, the brooch, magician’s hat and even the baton – no detail was spared.

This serves as a solid reminder that you can check out Trucy’s debut all over again when Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney hits the 3DS eShop this November!

And to wrap things up, I have to throw some enormous kudos to @SeharJH for her fantastic fan art pieces for Breath of Fire IIand Breath of Fire IV! With BoFII we’ve got Ryu and his loyal doggo partner Bow having a heart-to-heart, which conjures up all kinds of nostalgic fuzzies within me. The BoFIV art is a humorous take on Ershin’s unique dashing ability, something Nina seems to be enjoying a lot more than her buddies Cray and Ryu.

As we approach the release of Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite on September 19, we’re all suited up to provide you with tutorial videos for all 30 of our characters at launch. We hope these videos aid in assembling your team and choosing your Infinity Stone when it’s time for the battle to begin. Reporting in first for this Character Tutorials series are Iron Man, Captain America, Ryu, Captain Marvel, Morrigan, and Mega Man X.

Iron Man – Tony Stark flies in with enough firepower to deal with any team that chooses to face him. With moves like Unibeam, Smart Mine, and Proton Cannon to reach almost every corner of the screen, Iron Man is a great pick for new and veteran players alike. He may have trouble rushing down the enemy, but with a solid teammate to cover for him, he’ll have control of the fight in no time.

Captain America – Assemble a team with Steve Rogers if you enjoy having options for almost every situation. With a new move called Liberty Shock, which counters everything except throws, opponents will need to be extra cautious before attacking. Pair him up with characters that can follow up with his shield throws or help control the air.

Ryu – The World Warrior returns with all the special moves he’s known for. Whether it’s Hadoken, Shoryuken, or Tatsumaki Senpukyaku, Street Fighter players will feel right at home. Though a well-balanced character, he can be paired with others who can enhance his combo ability and control of the screen.

Captain Marvel – Making her Marvel vs. Capcom series debut, Carol Danvers flies in with a move set focusing heavily on her super strength and energy projection. Her Photon Absorber gives her super armor, allowing her to power through light attacks and single-hit projectiles. As a focused aerial fighter, characters with ground control or trap usage can pair well with Captain Marvel.

Morrigan – Ruling the skies, Morrigan Aensland returns to Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite with new clever tricks in her arsenal. With her signature Astral Vision Hyper Combo, her enemies will need to watch their backs before this succubus takes control of the screen. It’s not surprising the Soul Stone turns Morrigan into a chaotic force as its Infinity Storm turns a one-on-one fight into a three-on-one. 

Mega Man X – With a wide range of projectiles available to him, X beams in for his long-awaited debut in Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite. He has projectiles that bounce off walls, cause a large amount of hit stun, and one that can beat out most other projectiles. While X is in the backline, he can be paired with more aggressive characters that can take a hit for him.

Stay tuned for more character tutorial videos coming all the way up until launch!
