This past weekend, a rumor on NeoGAF sent the fighting game community on a frenzy. The rumor claimed that Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 (UMvC3) would be receiving an expansion titled "3X."
The poster claimed to have worked for GameStop and that the retailer's computer system contained the following information: "Expand the ultimate experience. 8 new challengers join the fight!"
Prices claimed by the "tipster" were $14.99 for a DLC voucher and $39.99 for a disc version. So what does Capcom have to say about all of this?
Bogus!
From Capcom VP, Christian Svensson (via Capcom-Unity):
"Just got back from GDC so I’ll make this short: that is completely fake."
From UMvC3 producer, Ryota Niitsuma (via Twitter):
"The DLC costumes are out, and for now that is all."
From community manager, Seth Killian (via Twitter):
"Sorry guys, <3 photoshop, but no UMVC3x coming from Capcom."
