Mega Man comes to Dragalia Lost in less than a week!

The time is finally near!  Mega Man is coming to Dragalia Lost next week!  During this event you'll be able to play as our blue hero, transform and ride Rush (instead of a dragon form), and collect Mega Man themed buster weapons of every type so all of your hero's can do buster shots.  You'll definitely want to play the event all the way through and unlock everything so you can keep Mega Man on your team all year round.  As usual you'll just have to complete enough quests to max your friendship meter and he's yours to keep!  There's a ton of other cool Mega Man related things in the event as well so check out their full event page at the following link and be sure to watch the trailer below! https://dragalialost.com/en/event/megaman/

When does it start???  Time's below!

Mega Man 11 hits 1 million units sold!

Capcom says the live action Mega Man movie is still happening.

Yesterday Capcom of Japan released their Financial Review for the year and there was one small paragraph that is raising some eyebrows... they still plan on making the Mega Man movie!  Only two months ago we all thought this project was doomed, and to some it was a sigh of relief, and to others it was a disappointment that yet another Mega project got cancelled.  Well to those who wanted it can now get some of their hope back because it looks like there's still a chance it might get made.  (How good it will be is another matter...).  So keep your eyes and ears open for some updates on this as we find out more.

Here is the quote from the financial report mentioning it :

As such, to generate synergy with its popular games via greater global brand awareness and value, the Company has been producing world-leading content, with brands such as Street Fighter and Resident Evil being made into Hollywood movies, now followed by Monster Hunter and Mega Man, which are also scheduled for live-action film adaptation.
