Mega Man Zero/ZX Legacy Collection coming to consoles/PC on January 21


Posted on September 3, 2019 by Jason Nason

Heroes from the Mega Man universe unite in Mega Man Zero/ZX Legacy Collection coming in the new year. All four Mega Man Zero games, Mega Man ZX, and Mega Man ZX Advent are being offered together for the first time on the Xbox One PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, and Steam. The collection will be available at MSRP $29.99 USD on January 21st, 2020 both digitally and at retail locations for consoles. PC players will be able to purchase the digital edition on Steam.

Mega Man Zero/ZX Legacy Collection brings the Zero and ZX series’ challenging boss battles, fast-paced platforming, and precise combat from hand-held to full-sized screens for the first time. The Mega Man Zero games were originally released for the GameBoy Advance and the ZX games were released for the Nintendo DS.

Nostalgic players can choose to play using the original sprite art, or they can bash some bots using the new optional HD-smoothing filters. New players looking to cut a path through the Zero and ZX series’ stories can also use the optional Casual Scenario mode to reduce each game’s difficulty, and Save-Assist system to create save points mid-mission for a more approachable narrative experience.

Players can also take a break from the action, and dive into the in-game gallery featuring over 600 pieces of original production art from each series, while listening to the music player’s complete selection of both original compositions and new arrangements. Fans of the series looking for a challenge will also be able to test their “Biometal” against the all new Z Chaser challenge mode. More details on Z Chaser mode will be revealed at a later time.

Nintendo Direct planned for September 4th


Posted on September 3, 2019 by Jason Nason

A new Nintendo Direct is coming tomorrow!

Tune in September 4th at 6:00pm ET for a Nintendo Direct featuring roughly 40 minutes of information focused on 2019 Nintendo Switch games, including Pokémon Sword & Pokémon Shield and Luigi’s Mansion 3.

With the mention specifically of 2019 games we can be sure that there won’t be any mention of Animal Crossing, which is due out in March. That being said there could be some new announcements to come in the direct, which is usually saved for the end of the show.
