‘We would like to apologize’
I know it’s not theMega Man Xrevival we all wanted,but there’s still hope for that.
While Capcom is still hard at work ontheir realMega Manmystery game, Capcom Taiwan is moving forward withMega Man X DiVE(known asRockman X DiVEin Japan): a co-op multiplayer game featuring multiple characters from theXuniverse. The idea is that it won’t step on existing toes nor will it be a reboot: instead, it follows a dream/virus world all-star showcase of theXseries.
Following a beta period on Android earlier this year itwasslated for a late 2019 release, but Capcom just came out of the woodwork to slap us with a delay. The game is now slated for “the first quarter of 2020” due to the “process of optimization.” They also apologized for the delay, which is not necessary in this era of rushed and broken games.
Look, I get that it’ll probably be weighed down by microtransactions: either at launch or after the fact. But aMega Man X-themed co-op game that’s downloadable anywhere in the world due to the ease of region-swapping mobile devices? Yeah I’m going to give it a whirl.
