We’ve come across a potentially huge datamine revelation for Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls — one that, if true, would add a familiar face and a new live-service element to the fighting game. According to VGC, code screenshots reportedly posted by Neoxon on ResetEra contain references that point to Rocket Raccoon, a raft of costume variants and a Battle Pass.
What Was Reported
Key Lines Pulled From The Datamine
Per VGC, three screenshots of code allegedly datamined from the PC version were shared by Neoxon on ResetEra. One line of code reads: “Kamala is delighted to see Groot and Rocket (though be careful with the look, as he’s future DLC)”. That line is being taken as an indicator that Rocket Raccoon would be added to the roster as future DLC, if the datamine reflects planned content.
Another screenshot appears to list “Legacy” and “Classic” costume variants for Hulk, Spider-Man, Green Goblin and Dr. Doom. The final screenshot allegedly shows a long list of code for Battle Pass content — notable because the game currently does not have a Battle Pass.
The Source & Credibility
Who Posted What
VGC reports that the screenshots were posted by Neoxon on ResetEra. We’re treating these claims as datamine rumours: allegedly is the operative word here. Datamines can reveal planned or scrapped content, placeholder text, or simply internal notes, so take this with a pinch of salt.
It’s also worth noting that Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls launched earlier this month and has already seen mixed responses on PC. Per the same report, PC performance issues resulted in a “Mixed” review average on Steam, while the game currently holds a Metascore of 86 on Metacritic. Those reception details frame why developer updates and DLC plans are getting attention.
What It Could Mean
Roster Expansions And Costumes
If the datamined strings are genuine and intended for implementation, Rocket Raccoon would be a notable addition to the roster. The line referencing Kamala, Groot and Rocket suggests internal planning around character interactions and presentation. Similarly, the appearance of “Legacy” and “Classic” tags for costumes could point to cosmetic tiers or alternate outfits for major characters like Hulk and Spider-Man.
Battle Pass As A New Live-Service Element
The long list of code tied to a Battle Pass is significant because Marvel Tokon does not currently offer one. If accurate, this would be the first sign of a move toward ongoing seasonal content or progression tied to monetisation mechanics. If true, it’s plausible the Battle Pass would coincide with a major DLC drop rather than being introduced in isolation.
VGC also points out that Marvel Tokon is set to receive four DLC characters by September 2027, with the already announced Phoenix Cyclops releasing later this year. The report suggests that, if the datamined content is intended to be implemented, the Battle Pass could be released alongside Phoenix Cyclops.
Why This Matters
This alleged datamine matters on multiple fronts. First, a character like Rocket Raccoon would introduce a new playstyle and narrative hook to the roster, potentially changing matchups and community interest. Second, the presence of a Battle Pass would signal a shift toward longer-term live-service support and ongoing engagement — something that could affect how players view both the game’s roadmap and its value proposition.
We’re intrigued but cautious: datamined content can sometimes be misleading or premature. Still, the report ties neatly into existing talk around the game’s post-launch plans — including the announced four DLC characters and the upcoming Phoenix Cyclops — so it’s worth watching. For those tracking possible Year 1 plans, we previously covered related rumours in our look at a possible Year 1 DLC lineup. And for players keeping tabs on praise, reception and unlocks, there’s ongoing chatter that connects to the Leaked PS5 Trophy List conversation.
Bottom line: if these strings are accurate and intended for release, Rocket Raccoon and a Battle Pass would be major additions to Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls. We’ll keep digging and will report any confirmed updates — until then, take the datamine with a healthy dose of scepticism and excitement.
