They’re keeping her iconic turkey legs, though.
Chances are, if you’ve been following Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite, you’ve noticed that the models look a bit… off. Specifically, Chun-Li‘s; her face doesn’t look like it really should. It looks like a mutant cosplayer pretending to be Chun-Li, rather than Chun-Li. And, uh, that face doesn’t get better from other angles.
There are a number of hypotheses floating around as to why non of the models look as good as they should. One posits that they’re using their mobile game models; reusing assets like that is not exactly unheard of for Capcom (seriously, it took a move to 3D for Morrigan to get a new sprite). Regardless, Capcom’s heard your pleas, and they’re going to fix it.
Comic-Con also saw the announcement of several more characters for the game. Nemesis, Mike Haggar, Spider-Man, and Frank West (he’s covered wars, you know) are all joining the roster. Let’s just hope that they look like themselves.
