Mighty No. 9
The much-delayed game developed by Mega-Man creator Keiji Inafune's team at Comcept and published by Deep Silver is due out on June 21. The latest trailer for Mighty No. 9 highlights the player’s various abilities.
Following a successful KickStarter campaign, Mighty No. 9 has had a troubled development cycle. Fans have been anxious for the game’s blend of retro side-scrolling action ever since it was first shown off in 2013. The game finally has an official release date of June 21, 2016 across a wide variety of platforms. A new trailer was released today that goes into detail on Beck’s abilities and features an interesting narration that shows off the quirky attitude players can expect.
We can see Beck making use of his various dash abilities, being used to vault over obstacles and jump across gaps. Additionally, the abilities and weapons of defeated enemies can be added to the player’s arsenal. Most of the gameplay shown off seems indicative of the typical jumping and shooting featured in 8-bit and 16-bit platformers.
Mighty No. 9 is coming to PS4, Xbox One, Wii U, PS3, Xbox 360, and PC. A version of the game on PS Vita and Nintendo 3DS is also due at a later, currently unannounced, date.
