Not less than we’re getting a compilation subsequent yr

Whereas any given yr for Mega Man could be a dire state of affairs, there’s at the least one thing on the horizon for the thirty fifth anniversary: the Mega Man Battle Community Legacy Assortment in 2023. In fact, the Mega Man thirty fifth anniversary celebration is generally centered round merch for now.

As reported by Rockman Nook, the “first collaboration” for the thirty fifth anniversary of the Blue Bomber is…an costly t-shirt line. In a partnership with Japanese firm Avirex, Capcom is placing out Mega Man t-shirts, which is able to run you about 45 USD (as Rockman Nook factors out, there’s worldwide transport).

The primary bit of stories right here (as a result of there’s at all times an infinite provide of Mega Man merch) is the emblem reveal, which got here by the use of the Avirex retailer. It’s a stark distinction to the opposite logos (gathered by Rockman Nook), relationship all the best way again to the old-fashioned tenth anniversary. For 4 straight anniversaries (tenth, fifteenth, twentieth, twenty fifth) we’ve a transparent view of Mega Man’s face (in varied incarnations). Then for the thirtieth anniversary, Capcom opted for a cool minimalist design that lined up with the discharge of the Mega Man thirtieth Anniversary Bundle.

However the thirty fifth emblem is just textual content, an off-putting large “thirty fifth” numerical worth, and a Capcom copyright. Mega Man followers know higher than to count on something from any given anniversary, however hopefully there’s one thing within the playing cards for this milestone.
