[IamtheWalrus]

Never have I been so happy for a new Mega Man game...

 

[SoThankful]

They need to stop playing and give us Legends 3

i hear ProtoMan's theme at the end. Meaning he could be returning as a playable character.

One day buddy... one day Volnut will get off that damn moon and be reunited with Tron and Roll...

 

[Scotty Scotty]

OK, THAT'S pretty cool.

 

[Guinea]

eh I'm not that hype for Mega Man 11.5, I'll still play it though. I just really wish they would do hand drawn or pixel art rather than these cheap looking 3D models.

 

[DunkeyKong]

WE'RE SO BACK

[solnK!]

THIS IS NO JOKE, IM FUCKING CRYING RIGHT NOW DUDE AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH

 

[Rox00]

Like everyone has stated, we really are so back holy shit.

The lack of a number might be indicative. Maybe it's some kind of gameplay only standpoint title that doesn't advance the story? Just a guess.

I'm amazed it still has Switch and PS4 ports.

I think it's purely for marketing purposes. Mega Man 11 sold very well for a Mega Man game, but the fact that it had the number "11" in its title might have deterred some people into buying it. You can already see Capcom shying away from the numbers a bit with Resident Evil - they still technically have their numbers, but they're now hidden in the subtitles (like the VIII in Village or the 9 in Requiem).

It could also mean that this game is going to deviate from the previous games in some way. I love the classic Mega Man formula as much as the next person, but it would be interesting to see them try something different.

I'm actually happy it still has those ports, because that means the online store will stay active until 2027 at least, and I can finish getting the rest of the games on my wishlist.

He's been back three times now, while Legends fans and Mega Man X fans continue to be ignored.

There's still hope that we'll one day get Volnut off the moon!

All jokes aside, I'm pretty hyped to see our boy back though.
