True to his feline namesake, The Black Panther is an agile, slick fighter with slashing attacks that have good range. He also has the ability to jump off the sides, even in the middle of the combo, giving him some air game as well. He's been compared to a cross between Ultron and Strider Hiryu in the way he fights.
On Capcom's side, the villain Sigma is a more methodical and powerful fighter that plays like a mix between Zero and Thanos. He focuses on denying space from his opponent using his ability to open rifts that slow his enemies down, plus a counter-attack move that maneuvers him behind his opponent.
The video below shows the moves and general fighting styles of Black Panther and Sigma, who are coming to "Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite" together with Monster Hunter just over a week from now. The main game has been out since Sep.19 for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC, with the DLC characters set to come out on Oct.17.
