Marvel vs. Capcom fans got a nice surprise on the final day of EVO 2017, as the publisher showed off a brand new character from the upcoming Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite. The new character is one that’ll be familiar to fighting game fans, as it’s Jedah Dohma from Darkstalkers. While the series hasn’t seen a main entry since 1997’s Darkstalkers 3, Jedah and his cohorts have stayed busy by appearing in games like Capcom Fighting Evolution and Project X Zone. He’s the second Darkstalkers character confirmed for Infinite as Morrigan Aensland will return as a fighter.
