Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 just got its first major patch in nearly a decade on Steam, but instead of fixes, it seems to have thrown a wrench into the works. Capcom’s attempt to spruce up the game has inadvertently led to some unexpected chaos.
The patch was supposed to make the game compatible with Windows 11 and fix some bugs, but players quickly noticed that it messed up Jean Grey’s Dark Phoenix ability. Normally, when Jean Grey loses all her health, she enters the powerful Dark Phoenix state. Now, she just dies instead. Talk about a game-changer! Fans on Reddit are pointing out that other bugs, like Frank’s zombie plungers, are still lurking around.
Adding to the drama, the patch also broke the ‘Kubota escape,’ a fan-favorite glitch that had become a staple in the game over the years. And if you’re into mods, brace yourself for disappointment as many fan-made mods are now incompatible. Capcom hasn’t commented on these issues yet, but players are hoping for a quick fix.
