It's a bit of a spoiler. There's a guy in the game's ending for about thirty seconds who claims to be Chris, but he's wildly off-model and appears to be working for Umbrella. This is supposedly going to be followed up on in the free DLC, "Not A Hero," which was recently delayed. Chris is also appearing in a new CGI movie in June, Resident Evil: Vendetta.

Since Chris is wearing his RE5 outfit in MVCI, I think it's a lot more likely that he's just there as the face of the franchise. RE5 is Capcom's best-selling game of all time.

it could be a fake out, but i believe Nakanishi when he says it is chris and they just made him look different to match the style of the game, old style chris would look like a mutant

Apparently part of it is that the new RE Engine actively requires motion capture, so they had to effectively recast Chris.

If I remember correctly UMvC3 released a trailer announcing the game and had some images on their site that were like https://www.marvelversuscapcom.com/firebrand.jpg, so people just tried different names in the URL until they found the full roster.

WB Games is very good at marketing. Capcom has its moments, but doesn't seem like it's putting any real thought or force into marketing MVCI right now, and even MVC3 seemed like they were letting the mere presence of Marvel carry most of the mail.

Marketing. Capcom has no idea how to market this at all. Or anything for that matter.

RE7 got a pretty savvy push.

I suspect that someone high up at Capcom is trying to save money by letting the FGC do the work for them, which looks like a smart move on paper but is also the kind of thing you would only come up with if you know almost nothing about the FGC.

If Capcom made a straight up Marvel fighting game with how popular the movies are it'd probably sell well and get a lot more eyes on it.

Also if it looked good.

believe it or not the Capcom half of the whole 'Marvel VS' thing scares away more people than it draws in

Rocket/Groot (this is how the character was named to me; I’m not sure if it’s just Rocket Raccoon with Groot assists or a redesigned character actually called Rocket/Groot)
Spider-Man
Thanos
Thor
Ultron

The Capcom side is missing a character, but it’s probably someone like Frank West.

A ton of the base roster are low/medium mobility characters, possibly intentional to slow down game pace/not intimidate people new to the vs. series? You still have a few like Chun, Strider and Nova but nobody who's going to be zipping around at even Doom fly/airdash speed and the ones with teleports weren't that amazing in 3.

I would consider what appears to be Rocket riding Groot as a new character, I seriously doubt he's going to play at all like Ultimate Rocket.

I wonder if Groot is an assist/install super, and the one they showed off was a level 3 post-install a la Vergil's in Ultimate. Considering how many other assets they're re-using, seems weird that they'd remake Rocket entirely.

Groot is a lot more important in a post-GotG Marvel world.

I hope Monster Hunter is the weird one with a bunch of gimmicks. Give me on the fly weapon switching, give me a damage boost if I take time to sharpen, give me an inventory with First-Aid Meds and Dung Bombs that snapback and prevent red life from healing when they tag out and Felyne helpers for combo extending and damage soaking. Give me a super where I ride a Deviljho or a Rathalos over the other team and a win cinematic where I harvest the other guy for useful parts.

E: I just realized every EVO championship team is losing at least one character in the base roster and some lost all 3.
