Gameplay

95 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
A masterfully crafted, gorgeous gameplay experience from start to finish that manages to be original by introducing the new "Double Gear" speed/power mechanic while still remaining true to the series.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
88 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
If you're a Mega Man veteran, Superhero difficulty feels great and the standard difficulty is on par with that of other games in the series.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
58 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
While the engine isn't pushing any boundaries, the scenery is gorgeous and resembles the hand-painted backgrounds for Mega Man 8, and the characters have solid models and textures, as well as exceptionally charming animations.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
50 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Impressive design, direction, and presentation with great voice acting, a ton of character, wonderful bosses, and some of the most diverse and well-rounded weapons in the series.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
37 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The English voice acting is a marked improvement over nearly all past entries in the franchise, and is actually quite good, with the Robot Masters having enough dialogue to keep things sounding fresh each time you fight them.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
28 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The comic-style cutscenes aren't quite my preference over full cinematics, but they're well executed, and the voice acting is a massive step up from the unintentionally hilarious dialogue of entries like Mega Man 8.
