Mega Man 11

Mega Man is back! The newest entry in this iconic series blends classic, challenging 2D platforming action with a fresh new visual style. The new Double Gear system boosts Mega Man's speed and power for a new twist to the satisfying gameplay the series is known for.

You wait literally decades for a decent Mega Man PC port – now the new and shiny Mega Man 11 is out, capping off a nineteen game streak of platform shooters featuring Capcom’s iconic Blue Bomber, assuming you’re counting the Legacy Collections.

Oh, and bullet time – check out the launch trailer below.
