During today's State of Play, Sony has announced that Mega Man X: Command Mission is finally getting a re-release as part of the growing PlayStation Plus Classics Catalog. The game will arrive sometime later this year for PlayStation Plus Premium subscribers.
Notably, this will mark the very first re-release of Command Mission since its original launch on PlayStation 2 and Nintendo GameCube in 2004. More than 20 years later!
Sony hasn't announced a specific release date just yet, or if you can purchase the game individually. We'll have more details as they become available!
well, I guess it's nice that it's getting re-released at all, but sucks that it's not only a playstation exclusive, but a playstation plus exclusive
ReplyDeleteAll of their classic games that they say are PlayStation Plus only usually end up for sale later down the line at a reasonable price so I would say just give it a month
DeleteSomething I noticed from the sony post, they actually changed cinnamon's head icon!
ReplyDeleteMakes sense, the Red Cross is a lot more litigious now about the use of their trademark than they were in the early 2000’s.
DeleteI Saw it when it was announced, Holy crap IM SO HYPED! I've never played Command Mission and I was gonna emulate it so seeing it get an official re-release is so exciting! I'm glad Capcom cares enough to do something like this. Hopefully this does well and we can get Legends on PS1 Classics too!
ReplyDeletelegends was a PS1 classic though, no? pretty sure I still have it on my PS3
DeleteI'm good. I'd rather practically own my games, which btw is distinct from legally owning them. Sony made abundantly clear the legal side of ownership is not the case when you buy games from them anyway and that has always been the case. On top of the fact that they don't want you to practically own your games, I think I'll pass. Even if I were to support Sony by getting their games, I sure as heck would not do it nowadays where they attach heavy online check-ins and DRM to make sure you didn't steal it after you have purchased it somehow, and I doubly would sure as heck not subscribe to their catalog renting service just to play Mega Man X: Command Mission. I've never seen an easier pass in my life.
ReplyDeletenot the most exciting re-release it could be (with it being locked behind playstation plus, AND the drama around sony at the moment), but super exciting to see this game getting any attention! renews my dim hope for a command mission x model kit from kotobukiya (it gets ever more likely, with how complex the iris and axl kits are...)! love this game, hope this at least gives a few more people the chance to play it!
