Earlier today, Capcom released new DLC for Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 that adds in the Heroes & Herals mode to the game.
The mode will be included by default in the upcoming Playstation Vita version of the title. UMvC 3 is available now for just $40 for the Playstation 3 and Xbox 360. It will be out on February 22, 2012 for the PS Vita.
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.
