Summary
Capcom’s latest trailer and screenshots spotlight Proto Man as a playable character, giving Mega Man: Dual Override two distinct playable styles ahead of its 2027 launch.
The footage also details the new Override system, which grants a temporary power surge before a short performance drop, making timing a central combat trade-off.
Custom Chips add another layer of strategy, letting players equip upgrades such as rapid-fire, shields and hover abilities to tailor Mega Man and Proto Man builds.
Twinkle Girl debuts as 1 of 8 new Robot Masters with firework-themed attacks, while the trailer teases weapon-stealing mechanics and a possible return for Astro Man from Mega Man 8.
Mega Man: Dual Override is slated for PS5, Xbox Series, Switch 2, PS4, Xbox One, Switch and PC via Steam and Epic Games Store in 2027.
