The newest issue of the Japanese magazine CoroCoro has revealed that, for the first time ever, the stars of two MegaMan series are going to be teaming up for their greatest adventure ever on the DS!
Some may be disappointed to learn that the MegaMen in question are MegaMan.EXE and MegaMan: Star Force.
The basic plot of the game, currently titled Rockman.EXE: Operate Shooting Star, appears to be that a new villain named ClockMan travels back in time to the era of MegaMan.EXE, with the MegaMan of Star Force hitching a ride. Once in the past, the Star Force MegaMan must team-up with the EXE MegaMan to save the world and the future.
Which of the two battle systems (if either) the game will use is unknown and the current screen shots show recycled sprites from the GBA games for the backgrounds in the EXE time period. However, there are new character portraits for the dialogue, a new map system and “a slick opening movie”.
While .EXE and Star Force are not the most popular versions of MegaMan, a game like this is interesting. As stated before, this is the first time two versions of MegaMan have done a team up story and if it is any good, perhaps we’ll see more MegaMan team ups.
All Megas VS Great Robot Masters, anyone?
