Mega Man X: Viral Nightmare (X6 Fan Remake) Demo Now Available


In case you missed it, the first batch demo of Mega Man X: Viral Nightmare is now available to download from SFGHQ

Developed by Cat Yard Games, Viral Nightmare is a reworked and reimagined take on Mega Man X6 that significantly enhances and expands the original game. It introduces a fully overhauled Nightmare Soul system, mix-and-match Armor parts, redesigned stages (with Blaze Heatnix’s stage standing out as an big improvement -- seriously), new story elements, and more.

The Batch 1 demo features five playable stages, four Armor Parts to collect, and 17 swappable parts to experiment with. There's enough content here to get a feel for the concept, which feels genuinely promising. Even if you’re perfectly happy with X6 as it is, this is absolutely worth checking out.

Quick heads up: if you’re planning to use a controller, make sure to launch the demo directly from your Steam Library. There’s currently a small issue where the controller won’t be detected if you run the standalone executable. Beyond that, enjoy!
