“Mega Man Legacy Collection Remastered” PS4, PC, XBox One: Iconic Game Returns This Summer; Deliver 6 Games And New Content Yet in Few Consoles?

By

Capcom has finally announced the return of Mega Man Legacy Collection Remastered this summer. The publisher says that this is the first six Mega Man games with new content.

The Polygon reported that the Mega Man Legacy Collection will be available in 3 game consoles only: PlayStation 4, Windows PC and Xbox One for $14.99. But the digital Nintendo 3DS will be released some time in winter this year.

So what can the fans expect in this new Mega man? Based from the press released of Digital Eclipse software, the studio has used its new Eclipse Engine "to rebuild the original games from its source element." Capcom confirmed that Frank Cifaldi, Digital Eclipse's head of restoration, did the finest job in making the Mega Man Legacy Collection to a Criterion Collection reissue, which was the first for a video game. According to Cifaldi in the Capcom blog post that "We're living in the golden age of a brand new form of artistic expression, the more we can do right now to take video game preservation seriously, the safer our history will be."

CinemaBlend said in its publication of Mega Man Legacy Collection that aside from the enhanced graphics of this Blue Bomber game, it also shows off the "brand new challenge mode, leaderboards, and replays."

QuarterDisorder didn't fail to mention in its article of Mega Man some specific features like the Museum Mode. This mode exhibits the history of the franchise in artistic form. The concept designs and other visual developments are also shown. Clearly, the goal of this mode is to preserve the history of the franchise, thus the game has its artistic archive.

Conversely, since there are 6 Mega Man games, each has "detailed database of every enemy type" including a practice mode to compete with the opponents. In addition, the Mega Man Legacy games can be bought individually for Nintendo's Virtual Console

Definitely, the release of Mega Man Legacy Collection this summer is very timely for the young fans and even new players. And as the reviews say, the upgrade will surely please the players.
