Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls launched this August following a massive open beta. The game faced a rough launch on PC. However, fans remain highly excited about its future. Arc System Works recently announced Phoenix Cyclops as the first of four promised post-launch DLC characters. Meanwhile, players continue to theorize about unique character variations, hoping to see Jane Foster’s Thor, Agent Venom, or Shalla-Bal’s Silver Surfer. Now, a new Marvel Tokon datamine leak has given fans a glimpse into what might actually be coming.
Rocket Raccoon, Classic Costumes & Battle Pass
A ResetEra user named Neoxon recently shared screenshots of game files. This follows a previous datamine that teased eight potential new fighters. The latest leak points directly to Rocket Raccoon as a future DLC character. Furthermore, the files include a specific developer note. The note states:
Kamala is delighted to see Groot and Rocket (though be careful with the look, as he’s future DLC).
This strongly suggests that the popular Guardian of the Galaxy will eventually join the roster.
The datamine also uncovered plans for classic and legacy character outfits. The files mention new looks for Hulk, Spider-Man, Green Goblin, and Dr. Doom. Consequently, fans expect Hulk to drop his bone armor for his iconic look, while Spider-Man will likely return to his primary blue and red suit. This continues the classic costume trend that started with Iron Man and Captain America in the game’s Ultimate Edition.
Moreover, the leak reveals lines of code for an upcoming Battle Pass. The exact release date remains unknown. However, players will likely spend money to unlock various progression levels. Code snippets refer to rewards like Avatar Equipment, costume tickets, stickers, and emotes. Arc System Works is already familiar with this model, having added a similar Battle Pass to Guilty Gear Strive during Season 5.
Take These Marvel Tokon Datamine Leaks With A Grain of Salt!
Fans should take these leaks with a grain of salt. Datamines often reveal early plans that take years to materialize. For instance, Arc System Works previously left traces of Jam Kuradoberi in the early files of Guilty Gear Strive. Players expected her in Season 1 or 2, but she took roughly five years to officially join the roster alongside Robo-Ky. Therefore, while Rocket Raccoon is in the files, his actual release date could be far down the road.
