in two weeks' time, no amount of marvel cologne is going to be able to mask the odor of marvel vs. capcom 3's fighters, whose suits will have been drenched and dried in super juices many times over. it's perhaps welcome news, then, that six of the game's heroes will be due for a costume change on tuesday, march 1, when the first of the (sure to be many) alternate costume packs will be released on playstation network and xbox live.

the first pack will provide team marvel's thor, captain american and iron man and team capcom's dante, ryu and chris redfield with fresh garments for $5 total. additionally, capcom has confirmed that the first shadow mode dlc pack will also be available on march 1 -- a good way to break in the new duds.

the jill valentine and shuma-gorath character pack will follow on march 15 for an undisclosed price, according to a leaflet in the special edition of the game (which includes a code to download the pair now). capcom has yet to announce any dlc beyond these three releases over the next four weeks.
