For the DLC characters, Jill Valentine of Resident Evil will be returning to the cast, only now as her RE5 incarnation (no info on her moveset as of yet, no one knows if it will stay the same or be some new variant).
Also returning is Shuma-Gorath of the Doctor Strange comics, bringing back his inter-dimensional evil, magic, and slimy tentacle combat to the game (Shuma-Gorath should be returning with his previous moveset, with a few possible new tweaks).
Both characters will be available to the game come March as DLC, but for the people who purchase the Special Edition of the game, they will recieve both characters 4 weeks before their intended launch to play with as they will.
Now for the Special Edition of the game...
It will end up including:
- A steelbook case, using exclusive artwork of the game
- A 12 page prologue comic written by Marvel writer Frank Tieri(also writer of the game's story) + an artbook with fan art of the game
- 1 month subscription to Marvel Digital Comics
- The 2 DLC character previously mentioned, Jill and Shuma-Gorath, which will be available 4 weeks before their intended DLC release
Also released, were some pre-concepts for the PS3 and Xbox360 covers...
