Marvel Tōkon: Fighting Souls — 4v4 tag fighter with shared health and low skill floor

Arc System Works' Marvel Tōkon: Fighting Souls is a 4v4 tag-based anime fighter that uses a single shared team health bar and has players start matches with two characters before adding teammates through in-match events. The game pairs an accessible low skill floor (autocombo-friendly systems) with a high skill ceiling that allows pro-level two-touch death combos and advanced mechanics like anti-airs and jump cancels. It launches August 6, 2026 for $60/£60 and is published by PlayStation Publishing LLC.

• Matches are 4v4 but use one shared health bar, effectively letting teams play like 1v1 with assists; you begin with two characters and unlock others during the match via stage breaks, wall splats, or losing a round.
• Combat balances accessibility and depth: autocombo systems let casual players compete while high-level play features two-touch death combos, anti-airs, and jump cancels.
• Release date is August 6, 2026 with a $60/£60 price point; developer is Arc System Works and publisher is PlayStation Publishing LLC.
• The review was conducted on PC hardware (Nvidia GeForce RTX 3070, AMD Ryzen 9 3900XT, 32GB RAM); the game includes multiplayer but is unsupported on Steam Deck.
