Mega Man Legacy Collection 2 Sales Top 1 Million Units

Capcom has updated its Platinum Titles chart for the fiscal year, which lists software that has sold one million or more units worldwide. As of June 30th 2025, Mega Man Legacy Collection 2 has reached one million cumulative sales across PlayStation 4, Xbox, Nintendo Switch, and PC. It’s the latest addition to the growing club of million-selling Mega Man games—becoming the sixth in the past decade and the tenth overall to surpass the milestone.

Franchise-wide sales for Mega Man remain at 43 million units, holding steady from the previous quarter. Meanwhile, other past entries continued to gain ground: Mega Man X Legacy Collection 1 climbed to 1.5 million units (up 100K), and Mega Man X Legacy Collection 2 rose to 1.1 million (up 100K).

Ruby-Spears Mega Man Coming to SD-BD with New Features, Commentary and More!

Announced today at Discotek’s Otakon panel, the complete Ruby-Spears animated series is heading to Blu-ray under Discotek’s SD-BD line (Standard Definition on Blu-ray). To set it apart from the earlier DVD release, this edition is loaded with a wealth of bonus material that I, along with a few friends from the Mega Man community, helped put together. Here’s the rundown:

  • All 27 episodes presented in Standard Definition
  • A newly restored version of episode 1 sourced from the original master, presented at its proper speed—a format not seen in decades.
  • Bonus materials include:
    • A new scan of the original "anime" pitch pilot
    • Hi-res scans of the show's original press kit
    • TV commercials
    • A toy commercial
    • Art and marketing galleries (preview here, here and here)
    • Brand-new, interactive menus
    • Complete scans of the series bible (preview)
    • All-new commentary with Ian James Corlett, the voice of Mega Man!

Over the course of the past year and a half, I’ve worked closely with Discotek on this set, and I can say with absolute certainty that it’s worth double-dipping even if you already own the complete series on DVD. The new transfer of episode 1 is very crisp, and some of the show bible materials are being revealed here for the first time—never before seen, even by longtime Rockman Corner readers.

More updates including a release window soon!

Rockman x The Legend of the Three Kingdoms Online Story Synopsis

Last month, a crossover event between Rockman and the Taiwan-exclusive MMO The Legend of the Three Kingdoms Online was announced to... well, little fanfare. It’s the latest in a long line of unusual, seemingly random collaborations with little relevance to fans outside its country of origin. Still, for the sake of posterity, it’s our duty to document its place in Rockman’s proverbial history books. So, for your consideration, here’s a complete summary of the crossover’s plot.

Mega Man X DiVE: Official Complete Works Slips to October

Udon’s official store has yet to update its listing with the new release date, so if you pre-ordered from there, it may be worth keeping an eye out for any changes.

In the meantime, you can check out a handful of preview pages here to tide you over until October. Many thanks to CrystalLaser and Mike_0 for the tip!

Mega Man X Comic Series Reading Order

With Mega Man X Timelines #1 hitting comic shops this week, author Daniel "Protoman" Arseneault is already looking ahead to his next endeavor: the upcoming Mega Man X ongoing series. For those curious about how — or even if — this new series connects to Timelines, Daniel has shared the graphic above to clarify how everything fits together.

According to him, the ongoing story begins with an as-yet-unannounced issue #0. While the events of that issue remain a mystery for now, it leads directly into Mega Man X Timelines #1, which centers on X and Zero’s battle with Chill Penguin. The timeline then continues with Mega Man X ongoing #1, currently scheduled to launch later this fall.

More details on the ongoing series are forthcoming. Stay tuned!

The Complete List of Rockman Garage Kits at Summer Wonder Festival 2025

Wonder Festival returned over the weekend for its annual summer event, bringing a fresh batch of Rockman garage kits. For the uninitiated, WonderFest is a Japan-based event where creators obtain one-day licenses to sell copyrighted fan works—mainly garage kits. Due to Japan’s copyright laws, these are sold in person only, though they often surface on the secondary market for a hefty pile of zenny. A few kits returned from the 2025 Winter show (which you can check out here), but there were some exciting new offerings too. Let’s take a look at what was up for grabs!
