Capcom Is Bringing The Mega Man X Games To Modern Consoles
We should have seen this coming.
Over the last few years, Capcom has bundled the original 10 Mega Man games into two different Legacy Collections. Next year, the Mega Man X games might be getting a similar treatment. Capcom is bringing Mega Man X 1-8 to PS4, Xbox One, Switch, and PC sometime in 2018. Hopefully we’ll know more details, such as a release date, soon.
Our Take
If you’re a fan of Mega Man, this is great. The Mega Man X games feel a lot like traditional Mega Man games, but they have a few added features – such as upgradeable armor and a slightly faster action – which might appeal to a more modern audience. If you haven’t play the X games, you should keep this release on your radar.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
