In a surprising turn of events, a massive 35 GB update dropped for Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite, raising questions about its impact on the fan-favorite mod, Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite & Beyond. Launched in late 2024 by renowned content creator Maximilian Dood, this mod quickly garnered over 50,000 downloads, boosting sales of the original game.

After months of silence from Capcom regarding updates, this new release has some speculating whether it addresses the mod without directly challenging its creators, thus avoiding potential backlash. Players swiftly noticed that while core features of the mod still operate, newly added playable modes have crashed the game, leaving fans and developers perplexed.

As the MvcI_Beyond team investigates the 35 GB update, the fighting game community eagerly anticipates further developments. This situation not only highlights the lasting intrigue of Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite, but also the vibrant community that continues to shape its legacy.
