Wolverine has been in every one of these games since the start if you count that X-Men only fighting game. It doesn't make sense personally.

I just hope this isn't the real roster. There was the leak I showed a while back, but who knows?
Yes, fox had X-Men movie rights. I'm just saying that, back then, they weren't really concurrent, competing movie franchises. Fast forward to now, and people are always accusing Marvel of crapping on X-Men.

It's certainly no coincidence, and it's not because they're just dumb, and don't think we want X-Men. Maybe the roster leak is fake. But, in my opinion, they've revealed enough characters to have gotten around to an X-Man if they had them.

I also kind of like the theory of X-Men being DLC. Not because I think it's likely, but because it's one of the few ways Capcom could outdo themselves in milking fighting games for every possible penny.
