In an exchange with RockmanCosmo, I've been informed that the long-awaited Rockman DASH: Great Adventure Guide English scanlation project is now roughly 72% complete.
Although a definitive end date has yet to be determined, you can rest easy knowing that project is moving towards completion. The scanlation team appreciate your patience. In the meantime, RockmanCosmo has passed along a few new sample pages. There's two above and a couple more below!
This week in Mega Man X DiVE, we have a double does of DiVE Festivals!
That little moment reminded me of those unusual 3D models found within the game's data, too. That was a major discovery years back. Although we never reached a definitive conclusion, the ongoing theory is BN5 DS was going to feature full 3D graphics. That or the dev team were experimenting with DS hardware in preparation for Mega Man Star Force.
All of this is to say, I got inspired to do a little digging on the game's development. And while I wasn't able to shed further light on those 3D models, I did find a little behind-the-scenes talk that hasn't been translated before. It's a fun read, but you won't find any earth-shattering revelations here. It may, however, spur you to fire up your copy after all this time too!
Back in April 2020, Capcom Taiwan announced Rockman X DiVE surpassed the one million downloads milestone. Later on, at the beginning of 2021, it was Capcom Japan who reaffirmed that the game contributed heavily to their mobile division growth.
Now that the Steam version is out in North America, Capcom US wasted no time at all to put out a press release. It features an interesting nugget of info: the game has reached over 8 million downloads since 2020.
While number of downloads for a free-to-play game doesn't necessarily correlate with financial success, all the information we have available bodes well for Rockman X DiVE. The game will likely to stay operating for a few, if not more years to come.
Rockman X DiVE is on track to outlive its ill-fated predecessor, Rockman Xover. That game's service ran for around 2 years and 4 months. Rockman X DiVE will celebrate its 2 year anniversary this March.
