Fans of Mega Man have had to endure a full three weeks without a new release starring their favorite blue robo-boy. Thankfully, the dry spell is over for the prolific protagonist, as Capcom today announced that Mega Man Maverick Hunter X for the PSP is now available for the PSP. The game is rated E10+ for Everyone 10 and Older and retails for $39.99.
Those familiar with the series will recognize the game as a mobile remake of the original Mega Man X, which debuted on the Super Famicom in Japan in 1993 and was a series spin-off. The game retains the classic side-scrolling and boss-battling action of Mega Man, while introducing a different story and new characters.
The PSP version features new graphics, gameplay tweaks, and rearranged music and sound effects from the original. Those who played the SNES veresion will be happy to know that there are new pre-boss-fight cutscenes, new locations for items and enemies on levels, and a new story featuring Mega Man X's archrival, Vile, which is unlocked after beating the game's story mode.
Even though he debuted in the late 1980s, Mega Man does not appear to be slowing down. He continues his assault on handhelds March 14 with Mega Man Powered Up for the PSP.
