Mega Man x Brawlhalla Crossover Event Starts Today

As previously announced, the Mega Man event in Brawlhalla begins today, September 25th. The crossover introduces a Mega Man skin inspired by his design from Mega Man 11, along with various themed power-ups, cosmetics, and a couple of avatars. Rush and Beat also make prominent appearances throughout the event.

The Mega Man skin costs 400 Mammoth Coins, the currency used for unlocking skins, DLC, and more. It, along with its cosmetics, will stay in the Brawlhalla store indefinitely, so there's no risk of it being removed. If you're interested but can't afford it now, you won't have to worry about missing out. If you have zero interest in this, well, the announcement trailer is worth a watch for the animation alone.

Brawlhalla is available on all major home consoles, PC, iOS, and Android.

  1. It's fine, maybe nice, I guess. I used to play Brawlhalla on my Switch, maybe I'll play it again on my PC on Steam for a moment.

  2. *an even more annoyed sigh* Welp, at least some people who play this game might try to unlock him.

  3. Well I always appreciate when free to play games don't have time limits on content to exploit fomo.

    That's about all I have to say on the subject.

    1. Because Mega Man is going to cost $25-30 with having to buy the digital currency to get him. It's a massive cash grab.

    2. Probably has something to do with the currency exchange rate of the "free to play game" to get a single skin. If what I saw adds up. If 340 coins costs $13. This is one expensive skin.

    3. From what I read of those that play it, they are also annoyed that he is a reskin of a character called Viviana with less detailed animations.

  6. …The emotes are pretty cute. I especially like the pleading Wily begging for a rematch. The gussied up sprites are unnecessary, but ultimately harmless.

    But that price… @~@

  7. … hang the heck on. I recognize that pixel art style. Didn't that person make a fan game demo not too long ago? Are they working with Blue Mammoth Games for this? Or, did BMG plunder their work? (Unlikely.)

    Also. From what I can tell, Mammoth Coins are between $0.031 and $0.043 cents (in USD) each, depending on which pack you get. The most logical purchase would be $19.99 for 540 MC ($0.037 / MC). Not the best conversion rate, but if all you want is the skin, then that's your bottom line price.

    Could always try "get paid to do nothing" apps, too, I suppose…

    1. I don’t recognize them, but I also don’t doubt that origin. Citogenesis is incredibly common and easy, and accidentally-canonized fan works are pretty much part-and-parcel with any medium-low effort project like this. If a brand new Transformer figure is based on Google image customs and mis-colored model sheets, then what chance does a phone game crossover have?

  8. Aww I saw "Megaman X" in the title and got excited...

  9. I don't like how licensed fighters have three fingers and a thumb like they're some hokey cartoon characters. That's always put me off about Brawlhalla.
