Mega Man Series Sales Top 44 Million Units


Capcom released their Q3 fiscal 2025 financial results today, reporting that the Mega Man series has reached 44 million units sold as of December 31, 2025. In comparison, Capcom’s annual report published on May 13 listed the series at 43 million units sold as of March 31, 2025.

Over the past four years, the franchise has grown from 38 million to 44 million units, reflecting steady momentum driven by Legacy Collections, sustained evergreen marketing, cross-media collaborations, and ongoing merchandise. With Mega Man Star Force Legacy Collection launching on March 27 this year and Mega Man: Dual Override planned for 2027, things are only set to get better.

Look forward to more exciting news throughout the year!

Blokees Shooting Star Mega Man and Zero Revealed

Blokees revealed today articulated figures of Shooting Star Mega Man and Zero series Zero at the 2026 Spielwarenmesse Toy Fair. Both figures will be part of the “Champion Class” line, standing between 5.5 and 6 inches tall.

Blokees is giving these characters a more angular look — and in Zero’s case, a more mechanical one — with finer details and sharper sculpting. They still stay true to their core game designs, but unlike Kotobukiya or earlier Sentinel releases, these figures have a style that’s distinctly their own.

At this time, pricing and a release date have not been announced. In the meantime, you can find more images below!

Review: Jada Toys Wave 3 (Helmetless Mega Man, Wood Man, Bubble Man)


Jada Toys returns with its third Mega Man wave, this time featuring larger deluxe figures. Wave 3 includes Helmetless Mega Man, Wood Man, and Bubble Man. Mega Man is similar to earlier releases but comes packed with more accessories, while Wood Man and Bubble Man are oversized figures loaded with extras. Of course, the bigger scale also means a higher price tag.

That just leaves the question: is this wave worth getting, or is this one to skip?

Blokees Announces New Mega Man Line

Earlier in 2025, we shared a piece of news that wasn’t meant to go public yet—specifically, it wasn’t supposed to be out there until a certain game was revealed. We had to scrub it pretty fast… but now it’s official: Mega Man Blokees are coming.

Blokees has announced a collaboration with Mega Man, with the line set to be revealed at the world’s largest international toy fair, Spielwarenmesse 2026, in Nuremberg, Germany. The fair will be held from January 27th to the 31st. 

Blokees is known for blind-box mini figures, build-and-display kits with articulation and display stands, and larger action-figure-style kits based on a wide range of IP, including Transformers, Saint Seiya, Ultraman, and Evangelion.

Keep you eyes here for more news next week!

With Mega Man X #0 now out, Udon Entertainment has announced that pre-orders for Mega Man X #2 go live tomorrow, January 22nd, at 9am PDT. You’ll be able to reserve a copy through your local comic shop, or online via the Udon Store.

Like the previous release, the cover connects with AtomicMarshmallow’s last variant to form a larger collage. Take a closer look at the right side for a tease of who’s featured next time.

Udon is Planning a Mega Man Battle Network One-Shot Comic

In a new interview with ShadowRockZX, Udon Entertainment’s Matt Moylan revealed that Capcom asked Udon last year if they had plans to do anything with Mega Man Battle Network. The catch is that Udon’s answer was basically: “We didn’t think we were allowed to.”

But things are different now. Moylan says Capcom made it clear that Battle Network AND Star Force are fair game, and that whatever restrictions existed in the past are no longer an issue. He even pointed back to Udon’s older Mega Man Tribute era, where they were explicitly told those characters were off-limits. His explanation is that it likely stemmed from older anime/manga-related licensing complications with Viz and Shogakukan, but those hurdles appear to be gone .

Moylan tossed out a couple additional details on what’s coming next:

  • The Free Comic Book Day 2026 bonus Mega Man Battle Network story will be written by David Oxford and will be 8 pages long.

  • A separate Battle Network one-shot is currently being planned as well, and Moylan teased that it’s being handled by a “big name.” Your guess is as good as mine.

  • As for Star Force, nothing else has been said yet beyond its inclusion in the excellent Mega Man Legends Timelines Cover D variant, and that there are no longer any restrictions from Capcom.


More updates on this front as it comes!

Mega Man X #1 Pre-Orders Open January 14th, Udon Store Variant Revealed

Tomorrow morning, Wednesday, January 14 at 9am PT, Udon Entertainment will open pre-orders for Mega Man X #1. Issue #0 hits stores the same day, and it acts as a prelude to this new run. Issue #1 is where the five-issue story arc officially begins.

You may have already seen the different covers for Mega Man X #1, but there’s also another one to add to the mix: an Udon Store-exclusive variant illustrated by Atomic Marshmallow, spotlighting Pallette and Layer. Even cooler, it pairs with Atomic Marshmallow’s cover for issue #0 — place them side-by-side and they form a connected collage. And with that in mind, you can probably guess who will be featured in their issue #2 variant.

Mega Man X #1 is expected to arrive in-stores February 18th.

Rockman: The Puzzle Battle English Translation Released

Originally released for Japanese mobile phones in 2011, Rockman: The Puzzle Battle was preserved last summer by the team at Keitai Archive. Now, thanks to community member Penguinstrain, you can finally play it in English.

Everything from the in-game text and descriptions to the game’s logo has been translated with the care and polish of an official Mega Man localization. You can see it in action in the footage above (thanks to RockmanCosmo and Yuvi).

As before, the game and its English translation patch are available via the Keitai World Launcher emulator. For the best experience, it’s recommended you use Windows 10 or later, as earlier versions may run into compatibility issues.
