Following on from an unfortunate leak on a Singapore branch of the PlayStation Network, Capcom has officially confirmed that Mega Man 11 is arriving on 2nd October, 2018 with a new trailer and the ability to pre-order the game as you count down the next six months until the full return of Rockman.
You can watch the trailer above, and you can pre-order your copy direct from Capcom right here. Oh, and here's the box art and a better look at the Mega Man amiibo in all its blueish glory. There's an an amiibo Edition you can pre-order, which bundles in the new NFC figure, some stickers, a patch, a microfiber cloth and a copy of the game. Nice!



Will you be adding Mega Man 11 to your Nintendo Switch game collection? If so, what are you most looking forward to about it? Share your hot take below...

Physical in Europe...please.
Oh wait...this means we wont get the amiibo either. Dammit Capcom...
Really stoked for this, especially if the physical edition is $40 or less. MM voice actor sounds a bit too much like Sonic for my tastes though...
Seems you can't pre-order the game for Switch just yet. Which sucks, because now I'm gonna obsessively look at my phone and computer for any pre-order updates...
That amiibo will be mine!
I'm hyped and ready for super fighting robot to return
Yet another Capcom game with baggage surrounding the Switch version. 'Coming soon'? Are they still deciding which levels to put on the card and which you have to download along with?
Yet another amiibo I need. Dang.
Boss fights looking EPIC.
Can't wait for this one. Absolutely in my top 3 most anticipatd releases of the year.
@DTFaux I think it's because the Switch is getting 2 different physical versions - one is a Gamestop Exclusive with Amiibo, Strat Books, Stickers and CLEANING CLOTH and the other is a reg physical edition.
@Lizuka There is no way of knowing.
Will the Smash Bros Mega Man amiibo do anything for this game?
“Count down the next 6 months”? It’s almost June, guy. Only 4 months away.
That is a nice amiibo.
Ill stick with my Switch Amazon pre order. this will be awesome on my commute.
I honestly can't say I like the art direction. It's not bad, just a tad generic.
Really appreciate how Capcom is going for that Arc System Works style of cel shading. Looks great for this game.
Can't wait - I am currently at beating Megaman 8. Almost done with both Legacy collections. X collections can't come fast enough
Ill wait for a review..call me skeptic...
Holy poo. Looks amazing - as soon as Amazon Canada adds the listing (why are they so SLOW at doing that), I'm in for a pre-order.
@GrailUK No baggage here. The listing just took a bit to appear.
$30 on Amazon
It's been a long wait but it definitely looks promising, I like the animations and gameplay looks solid and ofcourse I want that amiibo awesome.
Megaman X still looks better IMO
So much Megaman on one system. So much SF too. Cmon Capcom, make a marvel collection, and a RE one, and I'll be good.
I'm surprised by how good this looks. I'm usually more a fan of straight 2D art than 2.5D stuff like this, but it looks OK and makes a change from pixel art. Bosses look great.
This game.... Needs to be in my library MEGAfast!
The game doesn't 100% nail the look and presentation for me personally (and not because it's in 2.5D, which I have no problem with at all), but it's very close though (about 90%) and looks like a solid Mega Man game.
I have a Switch and a PS4, so it was hard choosing which version I want. Decided on the Switch, can't beat the portability. Would purchase digitally, but love that Amazon Prime discount I get on physical.
The old amiibo looks better, I hope it’s compatible.
That Mega Man amiibo is the only reason i'm getting the physical version!
Also, why does Capcom hate the UK so much? I feel bad for them.
Managed to sercure an in-store preorder earlier this morning. That's one good-looking amiibo!
)
Well, looks like I'm not getting that amiibo after all... sucks it is exclusive to U.S. and Canada (Mexican here), I was so excited to get it but, Capcom being Capcom again..
They have Japanese voices too, right? I hope they have a language switch in the game itself, but if not, I will probably change my Switch's language whenever I play. I am sure to prefer those voices...
Looks fun. Another game I could possibly be swearing under my breath to. Why do I have to like hard games that punish my inner child?
I can't wait for this! Just got back into Mega Man with the Legacy Collections, and this looks very much in the vein of Mega Man 7, which is one of my favourites.
Just need a switch port of Mega Man & Bass, now... such a shame that the game is stuck in a weird limbo.
Really hoping Bass and Protoman will be in Mega Man 11. Even better if they are playable like in Mega Man 10.
Pre-ordered the Amiibo version from Gamestop. Mega Man is my favorite series and I'm so glad we're getting more!
Capcom used to have the best looking games, those pixel artists were genius. I guess those days are gone and platformers are budget titles
I will definitely be getting this but I'm not liking Mega Man's voice the rest seem okay.
@mauhlin12
Good for you. Megaman is also my favorite Serie but I live in Germany so getting the amiibo is unfortunately not an option.
Btw: I finally beat Megaman 7 but I created a checkpoint after the 8 robot masters. After I don't know how many tries I lost patience. And even then it took me a lot of lives to get the timing of Wily's last incarnation right to beat him. But when I did get it right it felt great. I am currently at the Wily stages in 8. But I have to say that I prefer the 8 - bit graphics
I like that they decided not to OBI WAN 8-bit this time around. Doing it once was nice, twice was stretching it, three times in a row would be taking the piss.
Amazon is listing this for $30 USD so with Prime it'll be $24. I'm glad to price is reasonable but I'm guessing the game will be pretty short with 8 bosses and then one final run through to get Dr. Willy or whomever. I do like the art style! I heard the amiibo pre-order sold out on Gamestop in a few hours. Looks like we are back to that madness lol.
@NintendoPete Nice work! It is much easier to make a checkpoint after the boss rush. I remember dying to Wily then spending about 20 minutes farming bolts on Shade Man's stage so I could fill up my E Tanks and give it another go. You're on the Wily stages in MM8 now... uh oh. Jump jump! Slide slide! I played through MM8 a couple months ago and those levels are infuriating. Almost as bad as a Battletoads level.
@mauhlin12
It is actually easier to farm bolts at cloud man's stage destroying the small birds from the big egg. That way you get 999 bolts in no time.
Again, I have to defeat all robot masters again and again but I think Wily is easier this time around - well, at least the first version. I only tried the second form once with barely any health left.
Even though I played through all games before, I didn't remember much of 8 and 7 as well as 9 and 10. this time I am playing through 9 and 10 with Megaman and Protoman/Bass
Something's not right here. The art doesn't really feel tight and cohesive and the levels seem sparse and beta-like. The music sounds like the SNES Megaman 7/X and has that annoying over-used synth lead.
IMO, most music in the SNES Megaman games was weak sounding and lacked the punch and memorability of the earlier NES games.
I'll wait for the reviews, but something tells me this might as well be Capcom's version of Mighty Number 9. Capcom should've farmed this out like Sega did with Sonic Mania.
Looks awesome! Glad to see Mega Man with his slide and charged buster again and without the retro 8-bit graphics.
The gear system makes Rock more like X; the whole "supercharge your buster" is the first thing that made me think of that. The other things is the "slow time", which X can do with a supercharged version of Crystal Snail's ability. It reminds me of a concept I imagined, where Rock gets circuitry to temporarily have the same level of artificial cognitive, and physical abilities, as X. (Long)So, ... in canon, Wily possibly created some of the concepts that Light would implement into X.
