Unknown "Mega Man Legends" Project Appears on Canadian Actors' Union

A production titled Mega Man Legends has appeared on ACTRA Toronto's "What's Shooting" database, a public listing of productions registered with the Canadian performers' union.

The entry, categorized as "New Media," lists a production period running from September 14 to December 1, 2026. Casting is being handled in-house, with no additional details about the production company, performers, or the nature of the project.

Naturally, the title raises some eyebrows. "New Media" is a broad category that can include video games, television, and film, so it's difficult to say exactly what we're looking at here.

If this is game-related, however, one possibility worth considering is whether Capcom could be looking to Canadian voice talent as an alternative to SAG-AFTRA actors. Earlier this year, Mega Man: Dual Override became the subject of a SAG-AFTRA "Do Not Work" order, which led to Ben Diskin stepping away from the title role. 

For now, there's simply not enough information to draw any conclusions what the deal is. It's a very interesting find, though, and certainly something we'll keep an eye on!

Mega Man Zero/ZX Legacy Collection Reaches 1 Million Units Sold

Compared to other Mega Man Legacy Collection titles, Mega Man Zero/ZX Legacy Collection has been something of a slow burner in terms of sales. Capcom hasn't shared any concrete figures on the game's performance since 2020, leaving us largely in the dark about how it's fared over the years. Until now, that is.

Capcom updated its list of Platinum Titles today, confirming that Mega Man Zero/ZX Legacy Collection has finally reached one million units sold worldwide across all platforms as of September 30, 2026.

In related news, Mega Man 11 continues to see steady sales growth, reaching 2.4 million units sold worldwide. That's an additional 100,000 units over the previous quarter, likely helped along by recent discounts and Dual Override hype.

Beyond that, there are no other significant changes to report this time. Mega Man Star Force Legacy Collection has yet to make an appearance on Capcom's Platinum Titles list, so hopefully that'll be the next milestone we have to root for!

Cook Man Revealed for Mega Man: Dual Override

November has barely begun, and we're already kicking things off with the reveal of Mega Man: Dual Override's fourth Robot Master: Cook Man! He made his debut at the 2026 Gamescom Asia x Thailand Game Show.

The trailer above gives us a look at Proto Man going toe-to-toe with the culinary combatant. He's something of a kung-fu cut man, if you will. We also get to hear a new piece of music that has a noticeably different sound from much of what we've heard of Dual Override's soundtrack so far. 

Here's Cook Man's official bio:

"A wandering chef seeking recognition for his culinary prowess, Cook Man prepares to slice and dice our heroes with his Kung Fu Cooking style in Mega Man: Dual Override. Can you take the heat, or will you get out of his kitchen?"

 Who knows what Robot Master we'll see next!

Unreleased Ruby-Spears Mega Man Plushies Discovered

We've seen a handful of unreleased merchandise from the Ruby-Spears Mega Man animated series over the years, but none quite so... cute.

A 1995 Bandai America sales pamphlet has surfaced showing off a series of seemingly unreleased plushies based on Mega Man, Rush, Proto Man and Cut Man. The plushies were produced by Bandai, who held the primary merchandise license for the show, and would have stood 7 inches tall.

Although there's no evidence that these ever made it to retail, it's worth pointing out that development appears to have progressed far enough for product samples to be photographed. The line even had its own UPC and shipping specs, suggesting they were being prepped for wholesale orders.

So who knows? Maybe a few of these little guys are sitting in a warehouse somewhere, waiting to be discovered. Stranger things have happened. You can check out some other unreleased and rare Ruby-Spears Mega Man material in the archive!

Mega Man: Dual Override Demo & Panel Confirmed for TwitchCon in November

Another month, another opportunity to play Mega Man: Dual Override! Capcom USA has announced that a playable demo of the game will be available to attendees of TwitchCon San Diego from November 13th through the 15th. The contents of the demo have not been disclosed.

What's more, Capcom has also announced a Dual Override panel for November 15th. What exactly will be shown is anyone's guess, but if the recent trend of monthly Robot Master reveals is anything to go by, we might just see the next bot unveiled at the show.

We'll keep an ear out.

Mega Man Soccer Rated in Korea

Having long been overlooked in past collections, Mega Man Soccer may finally be heading to modern platforms.

The Game Rating and Administration Committee of Korea has rated dozens of classic NES and SNES Capcom games, including Mega Man Soccer. The game appeared alongside several other newly rated Mega Man titles, including Mega Man 1–5 and Mega Man X.

Because these games have been rated individually, it stands to reason that they may be released separately in some form rather than as part of a traditional compilation. One possibility is that Capcom is preparing something akin to Capcom Arcade Stadium, where individual games could be purchased as DLC. If that's the case, Mega Man Soccer could be one of them.

Of course, nothing has been officially announced just yet, so it's anyone's guess what Capcom has planned. Hopefully, we won't have to wait too long for this mystery to be solved.

Here's the Full Mega Man: Dual Override Title Theme

The NFC-enabled Mega Man and Proto Man keychains we talked about a few months ago are now available in Japan. When scanned, they let you take pictures with the boys while music from Dual Override plays on a loop.

As it turns out, that music is the full, unedited title theme, which we've only heard in bits and pieces until now. You can give it a listen here!

The rip comes courtesy of ChosenFluffy, who owns the Proto Man version of the keychain. I've also been able to confirm that the Mega Man version plays the exact same theme, so there's no difference between the two in that regard.

Enjoy!
