Phoenix Cyclops will join MARVEL Tōkon: Fighting Souls on November 2 as the first downloadable fighter in the game’s Year 1 Pass. The character combines Cyclops’ Optic Blasts with the Phoenix Force and can transform into Dark Phoenix during a match.
Arc System Works producer Takeshi Yamanaka detailed the fighter in an official PlayStation Blog announcement. Phoenix Cyclops is voiced by Ray Chase, and his “Classic” and “Legacy” costumes will become available on the same day.
The new fighter is designed as an all-rounder with long-range Optic Blasts, close-range attacks, throws, and tools that can control space. Using Optic Blast techniques builds Solar Shards; collecting four lets Cyclops enter Dark Phoenix form for a temporary power increase, although his health drains while transformed.
Players attending EVO France from October 9–11 will be able to try Phoenix Cyclops before release. PlayStation Plus members can also access a three-hour game trial beginning October 7, while the Ultimate Edition is receiving its first PlayStation Store discount.
MARVEL Tōkon: Fighting Souls is available on PlayStation 5 and PC. Phoenix Cyclops’ November 2 arrival begins the game’s Year 1 DLC character rollout.
Will Phoenix Cyclops’ Dark Phoenix mechanic earn him a place on your team?
