Magik claims the throne as Marvel Tōkon: Fighting Souls Open Beta’s most-played character.
The official numbers are in, and the Queen of Limbo just made a massive statement.
Arc System Works and Marvel dropped the official top 5 most-played characters from the record-breaking Open Beta, and it’s a stacked, style-heavy list that says a lot about what players actually locked in with:
- Magik
- Spider-Man
- Blade
- Doctor Doom
- Wolverine
No surprise that the new blood and the classics both showed up strong. Magik’s portal teleport shenanigans, Soulsword pressure, and Darkchild transformations clearly clicked hard with the player base.
The fact that she took the #1 spot over household names speaks volumes — the FGC and Marvel fans both showed up for the Limbo sorceress in a big way.
Spider-Man sitting at #2 feels right. Instant mobility, mix-ups, and pure web-slinging chaos made him the accessible high-skill comfort pick for a lot of players.
Blade’s aggressive sword-and-gun rushdown locked in the third spot (and had people already screaming for balance tweaks), while Doctor Doom brought the classic villain zoning and presence that never goes out of style.
Wolverine rounding out the top 5 is pure claws-out aggression — the man just refuses to stay down.
This list lines up with what a lot of high-level players were seeing in Vibranium ranks and above during the beta weekend.
Magik and Blade especially were everywhere, whether as point characters or devastating assists.
With the full game launching August 6 on PS5 and PC (20-character roster at launch), these early favorites already feel like they’re going to shape the early meta.
The beta proved the systems are sticky, the roster has real personality, and the community is locked in.
Who were you spamming all weekend? Magik mains, rise up.
Everyone else… the portals are coming.
