I saw the trailer for this and genuinely thought this was a mega man spinoff. It’s so close to it visually in every way how is Capcom cool with it?
It evokes Megaman, but it isn't Megaman. I don't think they'd have grounds to do anything unless they're one of those companies that patented specific parts of gameplay design or something of that nature.
Yeah, Capcom doesn't own every possible variations of blue and red robot people.
Hell, Megaman is kind of an Astro Boy knock-off.
