Update: Welp, disregard the new Mega Man game news. Capcom’s Brett Elston clarified on Twitter that “discussions are still going”, though the company “will not announce anything until it’s ready”.

Capcom announced 3DS eShop release dates for Mega Man 4 and Mega Man 5 at its “World of Capcom” panel at PAX East today.

Mega Man 4 will arrive on April 25. Mega Man 5 is due on May 16. Capcom also mentioned a June launch for Mega Man 6, but did not provide a release date.

Elsewhere during the panel, Capcom spoke briefly about the Mega Man series in general. Although the company did not have any information to present to fans today, it did tease that a new project is in development. News will hopefully be shared by year’s end.

Entries on Amazon UK show a trio of newly-design eShop cards. The retailer lists £15, £25, and £50 cards featuring Toad, Luigi and Mario art respectively. All three can be used to purchase digital content on a Wii, Wii U, 3DS, and DSi.

No word yet on when the cards will be released. Soon, hopefully.
