Back in December, Capcom announced that all Mega Man X games would be released on the Switch, although it wasn’t yet clear in what format. In February, Mega Man X Legacy Collection and Mega Man X Legacy Collection 2 were rated in Australia, suggesting that the X games would be released as part of these collections. This has now been confirmed in the latest edition of Famitsu magazine as well as in a new Japanese trailer released by Capcom (in Japan, the games are called Rockman X Anniversary Collection).

Mega Man X Legacy Collection will include Mega Man X through X4, while Mega Man X Legacy Collection 2 will include Mega Man X5 through X8. In addition to the games themselves, there are also a variety of bonus features such as an optional filter, a music and art gallery, a collection of images depicting various Mega Man X merchandise that has been released over the years, a trailer collection as well as the “Day of Sigma” OVA. There’s also a new mode called “X Challenge”, a boss rush mode with a twist. In it, you will have to fight bosses from different games in the X series together.

During a recent live stream, the Capcom Fighters YouTube channel showed off nearly two hours of footage from Street Fighter 30th Anniversary Collection. We’ve posted the full recording below.

Okami HD

Okami HD will release on Switch this summer. On Nintendo’s console, Capcom is implementing a couple of unique control schemes.

When playing in portable mode, the touchscreen can be used to draw brushstrokes. You can also use the Joy-Con controller’s motion controls in TV or Tabletop mode by moving it in the desired pattern, just like a paintbrush.

We have a brief video showing the touchscreen functionality below.

Capcom and UDON are partnering on a special 300-page book for Mega Man. On Amazon, the retailer lists Mega Man: Official Complete Works.

Here’s the official synopsis:

Mega Man X Legacy Collection 1 & 2 has been rated by the British Board of Film Classification. With this, some interesting information seems to have been revealed.

The classification first lists trailers for Mega Man X1 through X8. Additionally, The Day of Sigma is included. This was a 24-minute OVA that came with Mega Man: Maverick Hunter X in 2005. It’s thought that the videos will be featured in the “Gallery Extras” section in each or both X collections.

A number of outlets recently went hands-on with Street Fighter 30th Anniversary Collection. Among what was shown, we have first word on a Switch-exclusive mode.

Game Informer reports that on Switch, Super Street Fighter II’s tournament mode lets players with multiple systems put them into tabletop mode and play musical chairs by physically moving to the right unit for the next fight. The site does say that it allows for tournaments to “move fairly quickly by making the fights proceed concurrently,” but “it can also be kind of a confusing mess figuring out which system and controller you need to be at for your next match.”

Okami HD

Capcom has prepared a trailer for the announcement of Okami HD on Switch. Take a look at the video below.
