Capcom says they want to grow the Mega Man franchise

By Sickr on July 3, 2026

Capcom has recently informed investors that it aims to grow the iconic Mega Man franchise. The company has the eagerly-awaited Mega Man: Dual Override on the horizon, but with the series 40th anniversary happening in 2027, the company says that it aims to “communicate the appeal of the series to an even broader audience.” What that means beyond merchants initiatives remains to be seen.

Q: What are your plans for the Mega Man series going forward?

A: The Mega Man series is an important IP that will mark its 40th anniversary in 2027. Beyond our announcement at the end of last year that a new title in the series, Mega Man: Dual Override, is scheduled for release in 2027, we will continue working to communicate the appeal of the series to an even broader audience, including through merchandise initiatives.”
