Since Marvel Vs Capcom Infinite was announced for this year, one of the big questions surrounding the game has been, when exactly in 2017 will the game launch.

Sadly, if you were hoping for the game to be with us sooner, you might be in for some bad news. Speaking to 4Gamer (via GameRant), Capcom producer Tomoaki Ayano let slip that the game is aiming for a release date towards the end of the year. This would likely put it around the Fall launch when most AAA games land.

I'm uncertain that will be a great window for it to release in, as it might get drowned out by bigger titles. At the same time, fighting game fans are a niche market who know what they want, so hopefully it will be fine.
