Capcom Reveals Mega Man™: Dual Override at The Game Awards 2025


The Blue Bomber Returns in 2027 With a Brand-New Mainline Adventure

Capcom brought a wave of nostalgia and excitement to The Game Awards 2025 with the official reveal of Mega Man™: Dual Override, the twelfth mainline entry in the legendary Mega Man franchise. After years of anticipation, the Blue Bomber is officially back—set to launch in 2027 on Nintendo Switch 2, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PC via Steam.

Unveiled alongside a stylish reveal trailer, Mega Man: Dual Override promises a fresh evolution of the classic side-scrolling action platformer formula that defined the series for nearly four decades. While Capcom is keeping gameplay details under wraps for now, the teaser hints at bold new mechanics, striking environments, and a modernized visual flair that still honors the franchise’s pixel-powered roots.

A New Era for a Legendary Series

The announcement arrives at a pivotal moment for Mega Man. In 2027, Capcom will celebrate the franchise’s 40th anniversary, marking four decades since the original Mega Man launched in 1987. Since then, the series has sold over 43 million units worldwide, expanding beyond games into comics, animation, and pop culture history.

To bring fans directly into the creative process, Capcom also announced a Boss Design Contest for Mega Man: Dual Override. Aspiring Robot Master designers will have the opportunity to help Dr. Wily himself by submitting an original boss concept that could appear in the final game. Full contest details, including submission guidelines and timelines, are available on the official contest website.

Celebrating the Reveal With Classic Deals

In celebration of the announcement, Capcom is offering a limited-time discount on Mega Man™ 11 across major digital storefronts. Players can grab the acclaimed 2018 entry for under $5 USD, making it the perfect time for newcomers and longtime fans alike to revisit the Blue Bomber’s most recent adventure.

Additionally, Mega Man 11 is expanding its accessibility with new Brazilian Portuguese and Latin American Spanish localizations, arriving via an update later tonight.

What’s Next?

While Mega Man: Dual Override is still a couple of years away, the reveal confirms that Capcom is treating the franchise’s return as a major event—one that blends legacy, innovation, and community involvement. More information is expected to roll out over time, including gameplay deep dives, story details, and additional reveals tied to the series’ 40th anniversary.

For now, fans can watch the official reveal trailer, explore newly released artwork and screenshots, and keep an eye on Capcom’s Mega Man social channels for future updates.

The Blue Bomber is back—and 2027 can’t come soon enough.
