Mega Man Legacy Collection Coming August 25th
Capcom announced that Mega Man Legacy Collection will be available digitally starting August 25th for $14.99 on PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC, and early 2016 on Nintendo 3DS. Physical editions of the game will also be available early 2016 for $29.99 on PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Nintendo 3DS. More details regarding the Nintendo 3DS digital release and the physical editions will be confirmed at a later date.
This collection celebrates a piece of video game history by not only featuring the series’ origins with all six of the 8-bit classics, it also collects hundreds of high-resolution scans of vintage concept sketches, production art, unused Robot Master designs, a database of enemy information, a robust Challenge Mode full of remixed gameplay sections, plus a music player with all the games’ soundtracks — more than 100 songs.
Challenge Mode remixes gameplay segments from all six games, with plenty of scaling difficulty objectives for experienced players to conquer yet serves as a good starting point for new players, too. All six of the classic games will retain their retro 8-bit style with a newly added HD finish, giving all of the original sprites the crispest look fans have ever seen.
