Mega Man 11 is an upcoming action-platform video game developed by Capcom, and is the eleventh main entry in the original Mega Man series. It brings back several features such as voice acting and a 2.5D graphic style from previous games throughout the Mega Man franchise. It is set to be released worldwide for Microsoft Windows, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One on October 2, 2018 and in Japan on October 4, 2018. Mega Man 11 retains the gameplay style of the classic Mega Man series of games, and features a 2.5D graphics style with 3D polygonal characters and 2D environments. Players control Mega Man as he attempts to stop Dr. Wily from using a Double Gear system he invented based on research he conducted many years before, when he was in college. Players travel through eight linear stages, which can be chosen in any way the player sees fit, before battling against one of Doctor Wily's eight Robot Masters, including Block Man, Fuse Man, Blast Man, Torch Man and Impact Man. Mega Man can perform classic moves such as the chargeable Mega Buster and slide, as well as obtain new weapons by defeating Robot Master bosses at the end of each level. Unique to this game is the Double Gear system, which grants Mega Man two additional abilities; the Speed Gear and Power Gear. The Speed Gear lets Mega Man slow down time, allowing him to dodge attacks, while the Power Gear increases the attack power of Mega Man's weaponry; both of these will overheat if Mega Man uses them too much. When Mega Man's health is critically low, he can activate both gears to perform a powerful charge shot which can only be used once and leaves Mega Man weakened afterwards. The game will have additional features including Time Trials, Missions, Global Leaderboards, a concept art gallery and more. The game will have four difficulty settings: Newcomer, Casual, Normal, and Superhero.

You gotta give credit to Capcom for finally bringing Mega Man back and doing it RIGHT! Thanks for watching and liking this video. :D

[VideoGameAnimationStudy]

The difficulty setting is something that I think Celeste has set a new precedent for; accessibility. They don't want to shut off the game to just veterans of the series, they want it accessible to everyone.
This is a move long-time coming, and I'm glad they've finally included it. "Normal" mode lets us know that _that's_ how the game is *meant* to be played, but games are for everyone.

[TylerEdlin]

Mhmm l love easy modes. I face enough challenges on my day to day. It’s nice to relax and play easy going games

[bignekidbatzero]

I figured I was a bad ass enough to jump strait into normal mode buster only... got my ass handed, had to resort to utilizing the gears and had fun the whole time. I can't wait for this game to be released

The “little birdie” is Beat. Anyone who has played Megs Man games before should know this.

[suroguner]

doesn't have a way to Slide? Dude? Down+jump. That's how you slide.

Who would have thought a few years ago that a 2018 Capcom made Megaman would be better than Inafune’s Mighty No. 9 lol.

Just played through the demo this morning and MAN did it give me a challenge (even on normal mode). I don't want to admit how many times I died. At the same time, I never felt like the deaths were cheap - they were always due to a lack of skill or failure to use the gear system correctly. Now that I have the hang of the gear system, I can blow through the level without much difficulty.

In other words, if the demo is any indication, this is a tremendous game of skill worthy of the Mega Man name, with some interesting new mechanics and challenges to keep it interesting. While the graphics are not AAA grade in 2018, I actually find the art direction and enemy design to be quite pleasing to the eyes.

Probably gonna preorder.

[icefalcon]

I just played it loved it. Way better than I expected

[TheAshevillian]

Retro 2d style games are more popular now then they have ever been!

[MrStokes]

Lol there was never any doubt that it was going to be good also the double gear isn't required. Just makes it easier.

[rayburr]

I'm definitely hyped AND it looks great!

[VidyaBros]

Just finished the demo on break at work. I loved it and am so excited to see Mega Man 11 when it comes out. Got the special edition, too. Downloaded the demo at like 3 in the morning when I randomly found out that it's available now from you. I fucking love Mega Man and yes it does feel like it has elements from both the main series and the X series.

[mangadraw]

you know what grinds my gears?
This gameplay

[andrewt]

So many vids from you today! It’s a good day.

[drowningin]

The switch demo was fantastic. 1 thing I notice is you keep your gears running until they burn out turn them off before it hits red

[VideoGameAnimationStudy]

Also don't pre-order games. No matter how sure you are of it.

[aaaaaaaaaaaa]

I'm glad you liked it. I didn't make this game but I'm just glad.

For me as an old gamer, who remembers the first time i lay my hands on Mega Man back in the 80s, i really enjoyed the demo. Mega Man 2 will forever hold a special place in my heart but this was pretty good aswell...and difficult.

[darkjammin]

I thoroughly enjoyed it. The gears themselves could be considered in game difficulty sliders as well. Tougher bosses? Slow them down or deal larger bursts of damage. Tough platforming? Slow it down. Button mashing vs wall? Power up. This is wonderfully done in the demo and eager to see how the full game is. Even the purists can take on a challenge with buster only and gearless
