New Mega Man: Dual Override Trailer (Twinkle Girl, Proto Man and More)

Capcom has released a brand-new trailer for Mega Man: Dual Override at Gamescom 2026. The trailer showcases several new stages and features, including our first look at an all-new Robot Master, Twinkle Girl, and the return of... Astro Man?

Other highlights include Proto Man, sporting an all-new look, and a new gameplay mechanic called Custom Chips. According to Capcom, these chips can be used to "modify Mega Man's abilities and tap into overwhelming power through the new Override System."

We also have a brief story synopsis:

"Robots are running rampant at the Robot exhibition in Dr. Light's absence, and it's up to Mega Man and Proto Man to rise to the challenge to restore peace to the city. Override your limits and uncover the truth behind the incident!"

To top things off, Capcom also confirmed that a new Mega Man-themed skin pack is coming to Pragmata later this year. The costume was originally teased as an April Fool’s joke earlier this year.

We'll have more news and footage of Dual Override all this week. Stay tuned!

Mega Man and Roll Costumes Revealed for Pragmata

Capcom has announced that a set of Mega Man and Roll skins are coming to Pragmata later this year.

The Mega Man costume was first teased earlier this year as an April Fool’s joke, making its actual release a fun payoff to the gag. It also feels like a playful nod to the long-running speculation that Pragmata might somehow be connected to our favorite blue robot.

You can get a look at both skin designs above. More updates soon!

Mega Man: Gear Masters #3 Covers and Solicitation

Lunar Distribution has published the covers and solicitation for Mega Man: Gear Masters #3, giving us our latest look at the upcoming issue:

(W) Tavis Maiden (A/CA) Ryan Jampole"

Issue #3 features covers by Ryan Jampole, Nuri Durr, Tavis Maiden and Genzoman. Worth pointing out that Tavis Maiden’s cover directly homages Shigeto Ikehara’s Rockman manga adaptation, while Genzoman continues his tradition of paying tribute to the North American NES box art.

Mega Man X Regenesis Fan-Game Now Available to Download

Mega Man X Regenesis, a new fan-game inspired by the SNES-era Mega Man X titles, is now available as a free download.

Set in an alternate timeline following the original Mega Man X, Regenesis imagines a world where Sigma won, X fell and humanity is nearing extinction. As a last resort, Dr. Cain activates "Project Regenesis," giving X another chance to change the course of history.

It includes eight original Mavericks, new Special Weapons, armor upgrades, an achievement system and more than 25 original music tracks. Visually, it stays close to the SNES games with hand-crafted pixel art, while adding a few modern touches and extra detail.

Mega Man X Regenesis is available now for Windows, Android and Steam Deck/Linux, with a Mac version planned for later. You can check out Mega Man X Regenesis and download it here!

Review: Threezero Capsule-Dou Finger Mega Busters Vol. 1

Over the years, I’ve seen plenty of unusual Mega Man products, but never anything quite like this. As part of Threezero's Capsule-Dou line, Mega Man’s iconic Buster has been turned into a nifty set of keychains! Are they fun little accessories or just a novelty that misses the mark? Join me after the break for the Buster Breakdown.

Somehow, Rising Fire has become one of X's most-used alternate color schemes. From toy lines to spin-off games, it's really been making the rounds in recent years. Now, Threezero is throwing their hat into the ring of fire.

First Look at Mega Man in Fortnite

As anticipated, Mega Man is officially heading to Fortnite.

Epic Games has released the trailer for Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 4: Override, bringing together a lineup of gaming icons, including Sonic, Crash Bandicoot, Joker from Persona 5 and, of course, Mega Man.

Mega Man Fortnite Collaboration Teased Ahead of Chapter 7 Season 4

If there was any doubt that Mega Man is coming to Fortnite, it’s quickly disappearing as the game has begun to tease the Blue Bomber ahead next season.

 A giant cartridge has appeared in-game featuring artwork that cycles between several gaming franchises every few seconds, including Sonic the Hedgehog, Pac-Man, Tetris and Mega Man.

Mega Man and Rush also appeared in a recently leaked, unfinished piece of key art for the upcoming season. Although the image was initially dismissed by some as fake or AI-generated, the released Sonic x Fortnite tie in-comic features designs that closely match those seen in the leaked key art, giving it considerably more credibility.

Epic Games has yet to formally announce the Mega Man collaboration, but at this point, the writing is on the wall. Or cartridge. More details to come soon!

Review: Kotobukiya Iris (X4 Version)

I never thought I'd see the day when we’d get an official Iris figure of any kind, but at long last, after years of near-misses, here we are.

Kotobukiya is back at it with the first-ever figure of the fan-favorite heroine, Iris! Is this the one we've all been waiting for, or is it not worth the legacy of the character? Join me after the break to see everything this model kit has going for it!

New Look at ThreeZero MDLX Bass Figure

ThreeZero has shared a new look at its upcoming MDLX Bass figure from the classic series. The figure is currently on display at Mecha Festival 2026 Osaka, which runs from August 8 through August 16 at Yodobashi Camera Multimedia Umeda in Osaka. 

Bass was originally revealed earlier this year as an unpainted prototype, but this latest showing gives us a much better look at the figure with its full color scheme in place. The design recreates his familiar black and gold appearance within ThreeZero’s MDLX style and scale.

Pricing, release date and pre-order details have not been announced yet. We’ll keep you posted!
