Mega Man: Battle Network Legacy Collection bundles together 10 classic action-RPGs, and it launches on PS4, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam in 2023.
The story is set in a near-future world called Net Society where everything from your home appliances to the city's infrastructure is connected via the internet and accessed by NetNavis and PETs. MegaMan.exe is protagonist Lan's NetNavi, and it's your job to fend of virsus and hackers under the criminal organization WWW - or World Three.
The collection includes optional high-resolution filters that give you a "smoother, less pixelated" look, but you can easily toggle the filters on and off at any point if you prefer the original style. You'll also have access to an art gallery with over 1,000 images and a music player with over 180 tracks to jam out to.
Curiously, Nintendo is dividing the 10 Mega Man games into two different collections: Volume 1, which you'll find on the Nintendo Store here, and Volume 2, which can be found here.
Mega Man: Battle Network Legacy Collection Volume 1 (*deep breath*) includes the following games:
- Mega Man Battle Network
- Mega Man Battle Network 2
- Mega Man Battle Network 3 Blue
