Marvel vs. Capcom 2 - CPS2 Mix is a original mix MOD for the game by FLS Gaming Projects.
Like many others you may find in the internet, this one have a custom soundtrack, but CPS2 Mix didn't have a soundtrack with popular copyrighted songs like the most. As the name implies, it have a CPS2 based soundtrack, an original one (mostly) composed by Antoine Pickens (a.k.a. WizzyWhipItWonderful) to give a feel of how the game would sound if released for Capcom Play System 2 with the actual style of the previous games of the Versus Series.

Two versions of this mix were made, the Original version comes with nothing changed but the soundtrack, if you want to experience the game the way it was released, but with a CPS2 soundtrack. The Recolored version otherwise comes with palette color changes for most characters, but they are not random recolors, they actually make reference to other official appearences of the character or even make reference to other characters from Marvel and Capcom (you can check out some samples on the screenshots below or here in this video). However, LP colors were retained the originals for all characters, so you can still have an experience similar to the original game in the Recolored version!
CPS2 Mix in it's both versions is available for PlayStation 2 and Dreamcast, the experience is the same regadless of which platform you want to play, so feel free to choose the one you like.
Updates for this MOD may or may not come in the future, the last release was the v1.0 (June, 7th 2023). Check the README file in the download package for details!
