God help us, they overclocked Mega Man

Capcom unveiled the first gameplay footage for Mega Man: Dual Override, the first new entry in the classic Mega Man series since 2018, at Gamescom's Opening Night Live. The game sees Mega Man exceeding his usual limits by utilizing new Custom Chips to enhance his abilities and an Override system that grants him temporary, powerful modifications.

While the new features appear to work effectively, Capcom's decision to push Mega Man's capabilities beyond their limits has raised concerns about overheating and potential damage to the character's overheating protection systems. Despite the gameplay enhancements, the company has not given a confirmed release date for Mega Man: Dual Override, stating that it will launch sometime in 2027.
