Mega Man Powered Up

Mega Man Powered Up is a lovingly crafted remake of the very first Mega Man game (1987), released exclusively for the PlayStation Portable (PSP). With revamped gameplay, a completely new graphic style and plenty of extra content, Mega Man Powered Up is far more than just a remake - Mega Man Powered Up is a modern homage to the classic game that will appeal to fans of the series and newcomers alike.

The most noticeable difference between Mega Man Powered Up and the original is the new chibi-like graphic style: Mega Man, Dr. Wily and all Robot Masters appear in a cute, exaggerated 3D look with large heads and expressive animations. This style gives Mega Man Powered Up a charming, almost playful look - without losing the classic Mega Man feeling.

In terms of gameplay, Mega Man Powered Up remains true to 2D action platform gameplay. You choose the order in which you fight the eight Robot Masters (including Cut Man, Guts Man, Ice Man and more), take over their special weapon after each victory and use it specifically against other bosses - the classic rock-paper-scissors principle of the series.

New compared to the NES original is Mega Man Powered Up:

• Two new Robot Masters: Time Man and Oil Man, introduced for the first time in this game

• Voice-over for all characters (English and Japanese), including voice-over for cutscenes

• Two game modes: "Old Style" (classic like the original) and "New Style" (new levels, story and graphics)

• Level editor with which you can build your own Mega Man levels and even share them online

• Unlockable characters: Play as boss opponents or alternative versions of Mega Man

• Challenge mode with additional mini-missions per character

Thanks to precise controls, appealing visuals and extensive content, Mega Man Powered Up offers a high replay value - both for fans of the original and for modern players who want to immerse themselves in the series for the first time.

Mega Man Powered Up is a creative, lavishly designed remake that combines the retro charm of the original with fresh visuals, new content and modern technology. Mega Man Powered Up offers classic action, numerous extras and loving details - making it one of the best 2D action titles on the PSP. Mega Man Powered Up is an absolute must-have for Mega Man fans and a great starting point for newcomers.
