Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 is out in February and comes with the Heroes and Heralds DLC as standard, Capcom announced today.
The DLC is just one of the bonus features in UMvC3, including the ability to use your PS Vita as a PlayStation 3 controller and exclusive gold herald colours for all characters.
Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 is a launch title for Vita, so expect it on 22nd February 2012.
The free Heroes & Heralds mode DLC for Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 on PS3 and X360 is available today for download. In addition, Capcom is pleased to confirm that the Heroes & Heralds mode will be included standard in the upcoming PlayStation Vita version of Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3. A new trailer highlighting the PS Vita-specific features is now available for download on the press site.
Heroes & Heralds is a separate mode that adds new and customizable features to online and offline gameplay. Players will choose between two factions – Heroes or Heralds– and will engage in a series of battles with the opposing side to help save the world or take it over. Gameplay in the Heroes & Heralds mode will be altered through the acquisition of Ability cards that range from basic alterations (speed boost) to game-changing, combo enhancing powers (invisibility or ability to pass through projectiles). Cards can be used in online and offline versions of the Heroes & Heralds modes as well as the training mode. Ability cards are based on classic Marvel and Capcom characters.
Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 takes the epic battle to all new heights with 12 new characters from the Marvel and Capcom universes, a refined fighting system, eight new stages and new modes. The PS Vita edition of Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 will feature online and local multiplayer, touchscreen functionality, NEAR and everything you would find in the PS3 version. In addition, the PS Vita version includes a Spectator Mode and Replay function that allows players to watch or share exciting matches over wi-fi. PS Vita exclusive Gold Herald color options are also available for the characters. As an integrated option, gamers can use the PS Vita as the “Ultimate Controller” to play the PS3 version of the game.

Already got it pre-ordered
Getting the PS3 and Vita version of this.
It looks pretty good, but I really dislike the art style. I'll be getting Uncharted and Gravity Daze for the Vita first, and then I'll see what the review scores say about UMVC3. I might pick it up if it receives some good scores.
