Marvel announced three new playable villains for the upcoming game Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls during Sony's State of Play presentation this week.

The additions complete the Knights of Doom roster, a central antagonist team in the 4v4 tag-fighter. This expansion ensures a full lineup of high-profile villains to challenge players before the game's official launch.

The title is developed as a tag-team experience where players coordinate multiple fighters in combat. By adding these three specific characters, the game integrates some of the most prominent adversaries from the Marvel universe into a single cohesive unit led by Doctor Doom [3].

Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls is slated for release on Aug. 6, 2026, based on Pacific Time [4]. The game will be available on PlayStation 5 and PC [1].

This announcement comes as part of a broader marketing push during the State of Play event to build momentum for the August release date. The inclusion of Carnage and Green Goblin adds a mix of chaotic and strategic combat styles to the existing roster [2].

The completion of the Knights of Doom roster suggests that the game's core character balance is finalized ahead of its August release. By focusing on a 4v4 tag-fighter format, the developers are emphasizing team synergy among villains, which may differentiate the title from traditional one-on-one fighting games in the Marvel ecosystem.
