Fans of the popular "Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite" will get to see three characters joining in the roster of fighters arriving on Dec. 5. These are Black Widow, Venom, and the Winter Soldier.

The three characters will be the next installment in the 2017 Character Pass, which costs $29.99. The purchase could also see Monster Hunter and Black Panther, which were recently released.

The introduction of Black Widow, Venom, and Winter Soldier came with a trailer which showed each character's gameplay abilities. Winter Soldier, or Bucky Barnes, a soldier that fought during World War II with Captain America, was held captive by enemies and was then trained to become one of the bad guys. Now, however, he is ready to join the right side once again.

Winter Soldier boasts his cybernetic arm which can form a shield that could help him reserve his life. "Using his cybernetic arm, he can activate Metal Shield, which provides him with enough armor to not only ignore hits, but to walk away unscathed," the Capcom description read.

Black Widow, or Natasha Romanov, is a skilled spy who works to stop Ultron Sigma from taking over the world. The description of her highlights gauntlets that could significantly affect her opponent. "With the unique ability to perform evasive maneuvers, catching Black Widow will not be easy," it read.

Meanwhile, Venom boasts of a new skill, the Venom Glide that allows him to shoot web in six directions. "His new movement option is Venom Glide, a web zip of sorts, which can be aimed in six different directions, enabling him to keep the pressure going in his favor," Capcom wrote.

Aside from this, Capcom is going to hold a demo for PlayStation (PS) 4 owners, with the demo starting from Friday, Nov. 24 at 11 a.m. EST, to Monday, Nov. 27 at 11 a.m. EST. It will require a PS Plus subscription.

"Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite" is available to PS4, PC, and Xbox One.
