**Mega Man 12** is the upcoming sequel to the critically acclaimed *Mega Man 11*. This is the second installment of the *Mega Man* core games after it was rebooted. The game is confirmed to be made available on the Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and PC. It is confirmed to have VR support on both the Switch and Playstation 4. The game will follow the traditional formula of the *Mega Man* games with a few twists to add new life to the series. *Mega Man 12* is set to launch this fall.

# **Development**

*Mega Man 12* began in earnest shortly after Mega Man 11 was released due to positive sales and ratings within the community. The staff wanted to do a bit more extra so additional features such as enhanced Gear System which adds more Double Gears as well as Mega Man Battles, a mini-game fighting mode. In addition, Capcom announced they will be dedicating resources to DLC content, a first for the series.

# **Gameplay**

*Mega Man 12* focuses on Mega Man as he traverses various stages, defeating robotic enemies, overcoming pitfalls, and fighting Robot Master who were corrupted by the nefarious Dr. Wily, archenemies of the good Dr. Light. The game is set to feature the traditional run-jump-shoot of traditional *Mega Man* games. Defeating each Robot Master rewards Mega Man with a special weapon to use in his fight to battle evil. Much like in *Mega Man 11*, this changes Mega Man’s appearance and will give me a new look more in line with that Robot Master.

Returning from *Mega Man 11* is the Double Gear system though rebranded as the Enhanced. This system hasn’t seen much changes in its implantation but it has been enhanced for *Mega Man 12*. This enhancement focuses mostly on new abilities made available while in Double Gear.

## **New Features**

*Mega Man 12* offers several new features in the *Mega Man* series:

* **Enhanced Double Gear**: Several new Double Gears with new gameplay features.
* **Mega Man Battles**: Players fight one-on-one battles with various characters in *Mega Man 12*.
* 'Co-Op Play*: Players can play with 2 or more of their friends in co-operative multiplayer. The game’s docility and AI scales depending on how many players with four players being difficult.*

**This white-colored Gear allows Mega Man to slowly regain health while it’s active. However, moving, dealing damage, or taking damage obviously slightly reduces the Healing effect with the latter drastically limiting it.**

# **Story**

*It has been some years since Dr. Wily was last seen following his defeat in the Double Gear Wars. Since then, Dr. Light and Mega Man have worked hard to develop the Double Gear System and to make it less dangerous to the user. This led to great advancements within the system. However, this peace was shattered with an criminal organization of robots dubbed “The Angry 8” began a campaign to smear Mega Man, Dr. Light, and the Double Gear System. While Dr. Wily was suspected to be involved, it could never be proven. Mega Akan and his allies begin a new chapter in the ongoing struggle of the Wily Wars.*

**This rather weak looking robot is one of Dr. Light’s many creations but he has a bigger role than you might think. When called upon by Mega Man, he will rush to his aid and present him with a ... present! Usually some health or very rarely a 1-life item.**

**MONSTER MAN**(モンスターマン *Monsutāman* )

**Monster Man was once the star attraction of a Halloween/Horror-themed Amusement Park and his scary antics drew in hundreds of thousands. His ability to spook and scare the patrons was second to none. However, as time passed, people were less interested in getting spooked by cheap thrills and preferred more thrilling and fast roller coasters. Perhaps that’s why he suddenly when rogue. He has now commandeered the amusement park, turned it into his base of operations, and begun raising an army of undead followers. No one knows where he got these powers but they are certainly terrifying!**

**STRETCH MAN**(ストレチマン *Sutorechiman*)

**Stretch Man was one a famous super hero who fought for the righteous and good. If there was a burning bus with children inside, he was there. If there was a meteor heading for Earth, he was there. If there always an old lady crossing the street, he was there. If there was cat stuck in a tree, he was there. He was the talk of the town. Or was until Mega Man showed up. Sure, he fought a robot or two during the Wily Wars but Mega Man stole all the glory. Bitterness turned to jealousy, jealousy to anger, anger to hatred.**
