Play X-Men vs. Street Fighter, the explosive 1996 arcade fighting game by Capcom that kicked off the legendary crossover series. This fast-paced tag-team brawler pits Marvel’s mutant superheroes against Capcom’s iconic martial artists in chaotic two-on-two battles featuring frantic air combos and screen-filling super moves.
How to play
Choose a team of two fighters and battle to deplete both of your opponent’s health bars. The game features a tag system, allowing you to swap your characters at any time or call your partner in for a quick assist attack. As an arcade game, you will need to insert a virtual coin before playing. Press Shift (Select/Coin) to insert a coin, then press Enter (Start) to begin. Use the Arrow keys to move, jump, and block, and the action keys (typically Z, X, A, S, Q, W) for your light, medium, and heavy punches and kicks.
Tips
- If your active character is taking a beating, tag them out to let their vitality gauge safely regenerate in the background.
- Experiment with character-specific launch attacks that knock your opponent into the air, setting them up for a devastating “Aerial Rave” air combo.
- When your super meter is full, you can perform a Variable Combination to call in both characters simultaneously for a massive dual-attack.
