Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls review

Marvel Tōkon: Fighting Souls is a 4v4 tag fighter featuring a roster of Marvel-themed characters, developed by Arc System Works and published by PlayStation Publishing LLC. Released on August 6, 2026, the game is available for $60 / £60 and can be played on Nvidia GeForce RTX3070, AMD Ryzen 9 3900XT, 32GB RAM and Steam Deck. Tōkon combines the unique tag fighting style with a diverse cast of characters, including the Avengers and the Samurai Outlaws.

The game's low skill floor and high skill ceiling make it accessible to casual players and challenging for professionals. With a shared health bar, players can either play as a 1v1 or build a full team through various gameplay mechanics. Tōkon's narrative mode offers five Episode stories, each focusing on a different team of characters, written by comic author Kieron Gillen.

However, the game faces some PC-specific issues, such as mandatory PSN sign-in and lack of support for Linux, which may deter some users. Additionally, PC players have reported performance problems like frame drops and microstutters, impacting online match play.
