Want More Mega Man Games Re-released on PC? Vote on GOG's Dreamlist

Hot on the heels of the enhanced re-releases of Dino Crisis and Dino Crisis 2, GOG has announced Dreamlist—a community-driven initiative where users can vote on games they'd like to see revived or added to GOG. These votes will help GOG collaborate with IP holders to navigate licensing, rights, and technical hurdles to bring selected games to the platform, DRM-free, forever.

A number of Mega Man titles are already on Dreamlist, including several that aren't officially available on modern hardware or storefronts—such as Mega Man Legends 1 & 2, Command Mission, and even Powered Up. While GOG primarily hosts games with prior PC releases, Dreamlist makes it clear that any game can be suggested, regardless of platform history.

Capcom has previously worked with GOG to release enhanced ports of Resident Evil 1–3 and, more recently, Dino Crisis 1 & 2. These versions feature support for 4K displays, modern controllers, Windows 10/11 compatibility, and other improvements. Given this track record, it’s not far-fetched to imagine, at the very least, Legends 1 & 2 receiving similar treatment if there's enough demand.

Head over to Dreamlist, search for your favorite games, and cast your vote!

  2. The Legends 3 Prototype was on their list. Wouldn't that be crazy?

  3. I guess I have no choice but to use this account.

    Thanks, but I’m going to have to set this one out. PC gamers must suffer and so must legends fans to a lesser extent.

  5. Eh. While I understand being excited about potential exposure (and it seems like Capcom in particular is reasonably likely to follow through with projects), this feels like glorified paid emulation at best, and fruitless Change dot org petitions at worst. That said, I’ll always prefer no-frills ports to full-on remakes.

    And hell, if they can *actually* put up the Legends 3 prototype? That would be damn amazing.

  6. What in the actual fuck is the Legends 3 Prototype Demo doing there?
    This gives me hope. I know it's insignificant, but it gives me hope.

    1. It's on there because some people unrelated to both GOG and Capcom added it.

      GOG primarily deals with retro PC games and making sure they can work on modern systems. There are few, if any, new ports commissioned/produced by them. The first Legends game is a more realistic ask as it already has a Windows port. Same goes for the second one, though that wasn't released in English.
