A New Mega Man Game Is Finally Announced, But Not For The Platform You’d Expect
For over a year, Mega Man fans have been demanding something… anything that has to do with the blue bomber, but their cries to Capcom have seemingly fallen on deaf ears. Well, unless you count the bad box art Mega Man being added to Street Fighter X Tekken, but most see that as more mocking the internet outcry rather than embracing it.
But fret not Mega fans, your angry emails, blogs and forum posts have finally been addressed, kind of.
Rockman Xover, or cross over since in Japan “X” equals “+”, will be a social RPG headed to iOS devices. Featuring characters from the various Mega Man series’ throughout the years including Star Force, Zero, Battle Network and X amongst others, players will build their own robot and gather abilities on their favorite iDevice.
While this is better than no Mega Man, it’s still funny that they’re giving us something no one asked for as opposed to what over 100,00 people have been begging for, but I guess mysterious grudges are more important than fanbases and money.
Mega Man Xover will hit Japan in the fall with a North American release following suit sometime in 201x. You know, unless it gets cancelled.
