The beta runs over the coming weekend on PS5 and PC, offering online ranked and casual battles, various stages and a slice of the story mode, with the full game launching just days after the beta concludes.

Explained simply
Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls is an upcoming fighting game being developed by Arc System Works that features characters from Marvel's roster of heroes and villains competing against each other. The full game will include 20 different fighters ranging from well-known heroes like Spider-Man and Iron Man to major villains such as Doctor Doom and Magneto.
An open beta is a free trial version of a game offered to the general public shortly before launch, allowing developers to test their servers, find bugs and gather player feedback before release. Marvel Tokon's beta provides access to a large portion of the final game's features, including multiple fighters, battle stages and story content across PlayStation 5 and PC.
The beta is launching just days before the full game's official release, meaning players will be testing something very close to the finished product. For fighting game enthusiasts and Marvel fans, the beta offers a chance to try the game without risk before deciding whether to purchase the full version.
