The latest edition of Weekly Famitsu is with subscribers and with it comes new details regarding Mega Man X Legacy Collection for the Nintendo Switch. The games both have a story mode in the form of the X Challenge Mode. Here’s all the details:
- X wears a brand new white and blue armour exclusive to X Challenge. Though it’s based on the Ultimate Armour, it’s purportedly different enough to be considered new. No specifics available at this time.
- You can choose up to 3 Special Weapons from 9 available to take into battle. You cannot change your set until you’ve cleared an area. Special Weapons are from X1-X6.
- There are a total of 27 stages.
- Difficulty levels determine the strengths of Mavericks, if your health replenishes into the next stage, and whether or not your remaining time carries over.
- X Challenge Volume 1 (X Legacy Collection 1) and X Challenge Volume 2 (X Legacy Collection 2) have different stages. Examples:
- Stage 1-3 (Vol.1): Slash Beast & Crescent Grizzly
- Stage 1-3 (Vol.2): Web Spider & Wire Sponge
- Online rankings (leaderboard) confirmed

I assume people are gonna be mad that X’s new armor is a recolor. I’m just glad we don’t have to wait until Megaman 11 for a new story.

Well, it’s a “recolor”, but to be fair, it’s a good and elaborate one.You do see new details under the armor that you couldn’t see before, so I’m not sure if it even still counts as just a recolor.

“New Story” sounds like a challenge mode that will be given a couple sentences of context which will equate to “a story as to why everything is happening in the challenge mode”.
Make X9 please

Maybe if this sells well, they’ll make an X9.
X6 and X7 are what killed the X series. And why X8 sold so poorly. :(
