Capcom's followup to their most successful VS game to date would also be their first fighting game release on third-party hardware! Instead of using their very own CP System hardware which all previous Street Fighter and Marvel VS games were powered by, Capcom would instead move to Sega's versatile NAOMI hardware, which was based on Sega's Dreamcast console architecture.
This hardware choice would enable the move to 2.5D graphics, with the familiar 2D character sprite art pitched against full 3D backdrops. The final effect would have to be considered the perfect blending of 2D and 3D, before we would see most fighting games make the full-leap into 3D visuals.
With an unlockable character roster of up to 54 fighters, it's no wonder MVC2 is still a fighting game fave even today!
