Capcom has just let us know that the Versus Mode, which should've been included at the time of release, has now been given a release date. This is one trend that we can only hope developers do not follow in terms of multiplayer offerings.

Versus allows up to four players to match wits in online battles across two very different game types. Slayer’s Rule is a point-based game that challenges players to kill Majinis. In Survivor’s Rule, players hunt the most dangerous game, each other! Players can begin the hunt as Chris, Sheva or other secret characters, and choose from either one-on-one or two-versus-two team matches for either of the two gameplay styles.

The versus mode will launch on Xbox Live for 400 MS points or $4.99 on the Playstation Network on April 7th, tomorrow.
