Monster Hunter World’s Mega Man Quest Is Terrific




While Monster Hunter: World’s Spring Blossom Festival brings back old event quests, the game keeps adding new and absurd rewards as well. The latest event quest offers one of the most exciting arena battles yet and transforms your palico cat companion into Mega Man.

“A Rush of Blood” is a new hunter rank 13 quest that pits the player against two rabid Odogoron. One is miniaturized, the other standard size. The battle central to the quest requires players to focus on their position and movement, requiring the kind of strategic play that I love. The smaller Odogoron can leap around just as much as the normal sized monster, pressing the player to focus on big opening and execute more deliberate attacks. When it gets enraged, there’s a bit of a hit and run quality as well. I’m a Dual Blades user, and I can’t count the times I tried and failed to hit this tiny bastard with my spinning attacks. It gets even more interesting once the second monster shows up. Dodging and setting up for the perfect attack is a great time.



Mega Man 11 announced for 2018 release




Mega Man 11 is coming to Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, Windows PC and Xbox One in 2018, Capcom announced today. The game is a side-scrolling action platformer in the vein of the previous 10 Mega Man games, but with 3D visuals.

Capcom said Mega Man 11 will be released in “late 2018,” in time for the Blue Bomber’s 30th anniversary.

Working on the title are producer Kazuhiro Tsuchiya and director Koji Oda, both veterans of Capcom and the Mega Man series. The pair talked about their goals for the new Mega Man, referring to the game as something of a rebirth for the character. The game’s art director and character designer, Yuji Ishihara, created a new look for Mega Man, which “leaked” earlier this year on the Mega Man Legacy Collection 2 release.
