Arcade intro

The game was released for the arcade in 1997, Sega Saturn in 1998 and Sony PlayStation in 1999.

Final Bosses
- Apocalypse
- Cyber-Akuma: A cyborg, amped up version of Akuma created by Apocalypse. Also serves as the game's final boss. Called Mech-Gouki in Japan.
Story
Apocalypse re-appears in the game as a sub-boss; after defeating him, your team will face a mechanized, super powered form of Akuma called Cyber-Akuma (Mech-Gouki in the Japanese version). Although the fight is two against one, he makes up for it by having overpowered strength and speed. The character that can beat Cyber-Akuma will have his or her ending viewed upon completion.
Ports
- Just as the previous game, X-Men vs. Street Fighter, the Sega Saturn version makes use of the Sega's 4MB RAM expansion cartridge to retain the frames and the tag-team system of the original but, just like X-Men vs. Street Fighter, the Sega Saturn version was released in Japan only.
- The PlayStation port, much like X-Men vs. Street Fighter, switches from tag-team setup to a best-two-of-three round format used in the traditional Street Fighter games, due to the limited RAM of the PlayStation. Like the previous game, there's a "Crossover Mode" where the player can use a tag team of their character with their a clone of their opponent and vice-versa. For example, if the player is controlling Ken and his opponent is Spider-Man, then the player's partner will be Spider-Man and the opponent's partner will be Ken.
