With the last State of Play, Sony revealed their upcoming arcade stick, now known as the FlexStrike. Earlier today, Sony released new details about the arcade stick along with a new trailer.
During this trailer, Sony also took this as an opportunity to reveal some new footage for Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls. This provides us with another glimpse at new gameplay for Marvel Tokon.
At one point in the trailer, we see Star-Lord getting juggled by Spider-Man, Iron Man and Storm before getting spiked back to one of Spider-Man’s launchers to continue the air juggle. We imagine that there might be a way for the opponent to break out of this combo if they’re able to guess which character is about to hit them.
By the end of the trailer, we see a standoff between Captain America, Ms. Marvel, Dr. Doom and Star-Lord against Iron Man, Ghost Rider, Storm and Spider-Man. Of course, it’s important to keep in mind that Ghost Rider and Spider-Man will be unavailable in the demo build that’ll be present at Evo 2025.
In terms of the FlexStrike itself, it’s a wireless device that’s compatible with the PlayStation 5 and PC. As one would expect from an arcade stick, it has eight buttons and a lever.
The peripheral itself appears to be fairly lightweight compared to other traditional fight sticks due to its thin appearance. This arcade stick will be present at Evo 2025, but only for the purposes of being viewed. It’s set to be launched sometime in 2026.
