Mega Man 10

Challenging difficulty

A deliberately NES-style 8-bit run-and-gun platformer where you pick stages in any order, beat robot bosses and take their weapons. Tight controls and a demanding, old-school difficulty.

Mega Man 8

Sci-fi setting

A classic run-and-gun platformer where Mega Man defeats eight robot masters and takes their weapons. The PlayStation entry brings a colorful cartoon look, animated cutscenes and varied stages with boss fights.

Hyper Sentinel

Sci-fi setting

A retro arcade shooter inspired by the 8-bit era, mixing classic blasting with modern upgrades and mechanics. Fast reflexes and pixel visuals take center stage.

Galaga

Sci-fi setting

A classic arcade shooter where you pilot a fighter along the bottom of the screen and blast waves of insect-like aliens. The tractor beam that captures your ship, which you can rescue for double firepower, gives it its hook.

Zero Wing

Sci-fi setting

A classic side-scrolling shoot 'em up that became a cult name thanks to the infamous Mega Drive translation and the "All your base are belong to us" meme. Its signature twist is grabbing enemies with a tractor beam and using them as shields.

Mega Man X5

Sci-fi setting

A classic 2D run-and-gun platformer where you play as X or Zero through eight stages against Reploid bosses while a falling space colony threatens Earth. Hero choice, boss weaknesses and a ticking clock add variety and pressure.

Mighty No. 9

Sci-fi setting

A 2D run-and-gun platformer in the vein of classic Mega Man: as the robot Beck you jump through twelve stages, blast enemies and absorb their powers with a dash attack. It is widely regarded as an uneven execution of its promising concept.

Mega Man X4

Sci-fi setting

A fast 2D run-and-gun platformer where you play as X or Zero and take down Maverick bosses in any order, grabbing their weapons. Tight controls, anime cutscenes and a driving soundtrack make it a series highlight.

Titan Attacks!

Sci-fi setting

A Space Invaders-style arcade shooter in which you play Earth's last tank commander, blasting waves of alien invaders as you fight across the Solar System to the Titans' homeworld. Upgrades and simple, addictive action drive the gameplay.
