According to Capcom’s recent Platinum Titles has revealed that Mega Man 11 is now the highest selling game in the franchise. Specifically, the game has sold over 2 million copies, surpassing the previous holders of the accolade: Mega Man Legacy Collection and Mega Man 2.
Mega Man 11 released in 2018 and is the latest entry in the franchise. Since then, there have not been any new Mega Man games, save for collections of spin-offs such as Battle Network. The game’s Steam page describes it as follows:
Mega Man is back! The newest entry in this iconic series blends classic, challenging 2D platforming action with a fresh look. The stunning new visual style refreshes the series’ iconic colorfulness, combining hand-drawn environments with detailed, 3D character models.
To save the day, the Blue Bomber must battle Robot Masters and take their powerful weapons for himself, which now changes the hero’s appearance with new levels of detail. The innovative new Double Gear system lets you boost Mega Man’s speed and power for a new twist on the satisfying gameplay the series is known for.
A variety of difficulty modes makes this the perfect opportunity to experience Mega Man for the first time!
Mega Man 11 also features a variety of extra modes including time trials, missions, global leaderboards, a gallery of concept art, and more!
Lastly, Mega Man 11 is available now on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC. Capcom will likely reveal more about the series’ future (and whether it even has a future) in the coming months.
