What are they going for though? Occasionally, you’ll see a 30-40 dollar copy, but that sounds too good to be true. Or you can try and buy an MVC2 cabinet for your home, or spend some serious cash on a physical copy of the game. If you didn’t already purchase and own it, you’re more or less out of luck. It also had rollback! Beautiful, sweet rollback. Backbone Entertainment/Digital Eclipse dropped some serious enhancements, both digital and performance to MVC2. It’s been years since it’s been de-listed from digital storefronts (Xbox Live Arcade/PlayStation Network). But it’s still such an impressive game, and the huge cast leads to endless possibilities. Everyone I know is better than me, and I’m casual at best. I will never claim to be an expert at MVC2, but I still believe in the Free MVC2 trend. I don’t know about you, but I still hum the character select music to this day. With a memorable cast, incredibly tight mechanics, and long history of competitive play, we need it back. Despite how old it is, it’s always one of the first games talked about. There aren’t too many more fighting games that are more beloved than MVC2. But it’s gorgeous, intense, and it’s a game that deserves to be released from digital jail. Almost every person I know that has spent any time in 2D fighters has something positive to say about MVC2, thus leading to Free MVC2. However, it’s been 12 years since we’ve seen a re-release, and, as Maximilian said, “7 years since it was pulled from stores & sent to digital jail.” This led to the #FreeMVC2 hashtag on Twitter, which has since seen 25k likes and 19k retweets. Capcom 2 is a classic fighter that so many have fond memories of.

“Free MVC2” is a trend started by Maximilian on Twitter, and it’s a call to preserve the legacy of an incredible game. By Jason Parker in Fighting Game News | Aug, 5th 2021
