    With a stunning visual upgrade brought in, a suitable soundtrack accompanying events and some fluid controls ensuring players are constantly able to keep up with the action, Mega Man 11 is one of the best titles in the series – although the incredible difficulty won’t be something that all will enjoy.

    Mega Man 11 is exactly what I wanted from a new Mega Man game in 2018. The robot masters are fun and interesting. The stage designs are absolutely stellar, and the accessibility is incredible. Anyone can play this game and have a good time. There are so many ways to enjoy Mega Man in 2018. Capcom is on a roll lately and this gets me even more excited for the return of DMC and Resident Evil. Keep it going Capcom, now get to work on Mega Man 12.

    Capcom has made a game absolutely devoted to its IP roots, and fresh at the same time.

    Whilst not quite the best in the series, Mega Man 11 hits the spot. The game does a good job at modernizing the Blue Bomber’s latest adventure, and although the few subtle changes may not be for everyone, I have to commend the game for being widely accessible at the same time as respecting its hardcore roots. Despite its issues, this is a must have for Mega Man newcomers and returning fans alike.

    The game looks gorgeous and runs like a dream on Xbox One X at 4K 60 FPS.

    Mega Man 11 is a good open door for all kinds of players. Newcomers will enjoy its fair challenge, while long-time fans will have their hearts beating at all the good new mechanics and nice visuals.

    A good first step for Mega Man's relaunch, but lacking that artistic spark that could have made it a better package overall. Gameplay wise it's a very good game thanks to the new mechanics too, so it's definitely advised for the series fans.

    Mega Man 11 is another fun and explosive experience for Capcom's Blue Bomber, the new Double Gear system doesn't add much to the game yet it's still an enjoyable one.

    As a long-time fan of Mega Man ever since the 8-bit days, I'm happy that Mega Man 11 retains a lot of what makes the series special. On the other hand, most of the classic magic is missing which is something that I hope Capcom brings back in Mega Man 12.

    It's not revolutionary, but Mega Man 11 feels almost like a classic Mega Man game, and is a good foundation for the next 10 games.

    Mega Man 11 proves that the Blue Bomber hasn’t lost his touch, and that the games can still prove entertaining even during a time where there is no shortage of 2D successors. We can only hope that it won’t take nearly as long for future entries, including a hopeful return of Mega Man X.

    Even with these issues, it just feels good to see Mega Man back in action, and Mega Man 11 will hopefully be the start of many new robotic adventures to come.

    I finished playing Mega Man 11 last month and here's what I think:
    Stage design: Brilliant, balances and allows perfect use for the new double gear system. I've played these stages several times and I never got bored of them.
    Music: The music is a small downgrade from the usual catchy songs that I heard from past games. However, this doesn't mean that it's horrible.
    Bosses: As seen in other Mega Man games, bosses provide a bit of a challenge at the end of each stage. In this game, the bosses also have your double gear technique, which makes them unique.
    Overall, I'll give this game a solid 10/10, definitely a game worth trying and a new start for Mega Man's future.

Technically the game holds up really well throughout your time with the game and I was really impressed with the controls that have been implemented. The presentation side of the game has been done to perfection and Mega Man has never looked and sounded better than it does here. There are lots of different weapons and upgrades for you to get to grips with and the best thing is that each weapon and upgrade plays its part and feels important. Each enemy in the game represents a different challenge and the boss battles feel exhilarating from start to finish. In terms of content there isn’t a huge amount for you to get to grips which means I feel the game is slightly overpriced. You have to stop and have a breather every now and then because the high difficulty can be a little frustrating. Mega Man has a place in a lot of people’s heart’s and I’m one of those people so to say I was eager to get to grips with Mega Man 11 would be a massive understatement. Thankfully it didn’t disappoint either and in a way I think it will garner more fans because whilst it’s still retro to the core it does also have a modern feel to it as well. This modern feeling is felt through both the controls and presentation side of the game and when they combine together you have an incredible amount of fun. In fact you have that much fun that it makes it easier to carry on even if you come across some frustrating moments, which you will no doubt experience along the way. Thankfully these frustrating moments aren’t too profound though because defeating the various enemies never gets boring thanks to the many upgrades and weapons you can use against them. At the end of the day then Mega Man 11 has reached my lofty expectations and then some, and whilst I feel it may be a little overpriced I still recommend that you get the game because it does the Mega Man franchise justice and fans of the franchise will thoroughly enjoy what the game has to offer.
