A massive fan-made mod for Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite was recently released, and from the sounds of things, it’s doing quite well for itself.
Marvel vs. Capcom Infinite & Beyond is a new mod spearheaded by Maximilian Dood that overhauls the original game’s graphics, adds balance changes, new modes, and more, and it just saw its official 1.0 release just last week. The team behind the PC mod have since provided an update to fans to let them know that the support has been very strong so far.
According to both Max and the official MvCIB Twitter account, Beyond has already reached 50,000 downloads in just its first week of release. Maximilian shared a message to fans thanking everyone for the support.
“Huge thanks to anyone who checked out @MVCI_Beyond,” Max began. “As Director, all I really wanted was for people to find fun in MVCI, the same way me and select others did before.
“Couldn’t be happier & extremely proud of the team that made this all possible,” Max concluded.

Marvel vs. Capcom Infinite & Beyond is a completely free mod that players can download right now. It is only available for the Steam version of Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite, and directions on how to get it and install it yourself can be found on the official MvCIB website.
This impressive mod has been doing the rounds within the fighting game community, and so far, it seems like it’s been very well received.
On top of the vibrant new comic book-style visuals, Beyond also made changes to various characters and even the game’s final boss, Ultron Omega.
In fact, the mod’s version of this boss has been called one of the hardest fighting game bosses in history by its development team, and it has even birthed a challenge where players are being prompted to take on the fused villain on the hardest difficulty using one of Beyond’s new modes that sees the player controlling both of their characters on screen at the same time.
