Signas, Douglas and Alia feel like real characters? Cooperation with NPC's? Hard but fair battles? A pissed off X that knowns when to smile and is as badass as Zero? This game looks fantastic!
Good writing was never a strong point of the X series, but what the characters should be like was conveyed well enough. That's all the fans need to pick up Capcom's slack.
Did you see how X and other characters have different expressions on their faces when they're talking IN THE SAME DIALOG BOX? Did you see that the guards keeping an eye to the imprisoned Mavericks are clear references to Daft Punk? Did you see that the fight with Strike is way harder and challenging and thus more fun that the other intro stage bosses in the original games? Did you see how every NPC has their own mugshot and they are not just copies of themselves? Did you see THAT cutscene in the intro with X flying in his Ultimate Armor? Did you see how the dialogues with the Mavericks immediately give them personality and you can see that they're spiteful or cocky? Can you even grasp the amount of time and effort this man has put on this game, just to release it for free for the fans? I'm extremely excited, happy and moved by this game. I was on the verge of crying. Thank you so very much for this, in this so weird and chaotic year. This definitely makes a perfect closure. Thank you.
I don't know why, but I actually felt as if the game had proper Japanese voice acting work. I mean, I almost *heard* what the characters were saying, even the low-ranking Hunters too! There's a certain flow and elegance to this intro stage, and I'm glad JKB put all of his spirit into it. I hope that the rest of this game turns out great. 😊👍
You right with all of this but one thing. This does not need to be the closure. I hope that it gets the Street Fighter Cross Megaman treatment or the Sonic Mania one. THIS SHOULD BE SUPPORTED BY CAPCOM!!! Sorry for caps but it had to be said.
In the future if my grandchildren ever need a patience lesson, I’ll tell them the story of MMX Corrupted... our patience will be rewarded I believe that
Seriously, X flying in on the Ultimate Armor, jumping off and suiting up in mid air, the Nova Striking into the heart of battle while destroying an enemy ship like a fucking boss....this is seriously one of the SICKEST goddamn intros ever
Not to mention the opening theme is absolute perfection in how it ties well with the introduction of X and the setting of the entire stage. Chefs kiss 🤌
Holy shit, what an intro stage. Ultimate Armour transformation based on the figure, NPCs who actually fight back, actual dialogue and story progression, damned.
Based on the figure, indeed. What I never got to see from Capcom, but JKB fulfilled our wish, and gave us that wonderful homage to that particular figure that Bandai and Capcom worked on.
This is the better megaman I see in my live, I can't wait to play- it serious, from pokemon hackroms to megaman corrupted, the fans are my hope for better games not the studios
Why is no one talking about the dialogue? X speaking like a true leader, acting with his sense of justice, he truly sounds like X in this game. Not to mention the other characters, who have really good lines too. That's amazing.
the amount of details, you can see at 1:25 how X start speaking kinda "happily" with his mouth when asking how the reploid is, and then get serious when talking about the situation, and that's literally into X's personality, just the best game ever
I gotta be honest man, i'm fucking crying over how epic this looks, this is how a Megaman X game should be from now on, i cannot contain my happiness after seeing that intro and the level of detail, this my friends, is a labor of love
I think X being this mature is also in line with him transforming after the x5 events, I think him keeping the ultimate armor after the eurasia events is a clear reference to this, zero is dead, but he has to go forward and face his biggest fears, one of said fears is having too much power on his hands. This is what makes his parallel with Strike so strong, X doesn't want the power but uses it for the sake of humanity and reploids alike, but even fears said power, meanwhile Strike seeks power above anything else for selfish reasons.
i think this game has not been released on purpose (its impossible to do a "perfect game"). i would like to ask jkb how much money we can all donate in order to release this one!
9:49 I love how Douglas looks back here... He doesn't just rush off like a bit, but takes one last look at his comrade and friend before he journeys off... Such a nice detail...

To be fair, the reason Zero would generally get more love in the old games is he was originally meant to be the main character. X is more of a placeholder main character that was only created because at first they thought Zero would be too different of a character for fans of the classic Megaman to enjoy. Little did they know.
@@X_Gon_Give_It_To_Ya it's been 10 years and I'm still salty about Zero getting more spotlights than X. I mean X is the main character, why you focus on Zero more? And Inafune wasn't satisfied enough so he created the Zero series and made X dead. Keep in mind that X was meant to the antagonist. But thanks to Capcom, it was scrapped because it was too hurtful for his fans.
Okay, so when talking about Zero’s and X’s spotlight, I was fine with Zero - a side character - playing a big role in the series and even getting his own sequel series. Those two concepts are normal. The thing is, Inafune focused too little on X story wise to make up for it, so in the end I and many others feel that X as a character had missed potential. The sad thing is, Inafune himself wanted to fix this issue with the Mega Man Maverick Hunter X remakes, giving X a more fleshed out role. The first and currently only entry of that had X being the central focus, having him being the reploid with the most human emotion particularly in his ability to care and worry. The ending cutscene of Dr. Lights last words and the prequal movie emphasizing X’s large importance in connecting robots to humanity. X in that version was also meant to be the one to cause Sigma’s eye scars in the unlock able prequel movie, where as in the original canon it was revealed in a flashback in X4 that Zero gave Sigma his eye scars. It’s kind of upsetting that Inafune never got to make up for the mistakes he _wanted_ to fix. Here’s hoping that the possible Mega Man X9 somehow makes a good story around X, or maybe we’ll even get to see those Maverick Hunter X sequels make Inafune’s wish come true, although it’s unlikely to happen.
@@slysamuel5902 Capcom is currently making collaborations with other games to introduce more people into it. When there's enough people who are familiar with Megaman X, it's more likely to get a sequel. It's more of a business thing to advertise the game first then make a one!
@KamiSquad_X Although the concept behind X Dives seems alright. But the whole gacha system kinda ruins everything for me. I dont want to RNG ultimate armor X and black Zero. I dont want to grind an unnecessary amount of times on a short single level. There is no need for such complex upgrades that affects your progress in the game. I just want a simple plantformer. I want a megaman game. Megaman X Dive is not a Megaman game to me.
The zero series are also part of it i think, but still amazing game zero 1-4 and zx series are my favorite megaman games. But especially 1-4 is mostly my favorite.
You know I watch this video from time to time just for the soundtrack. What really strikes me is, as X goes through, you see more enemies, post alarm the enemies digging through the hull of the airship. It creates a nice effect of, even though X is destroying every enemy in sight, the battle feels like it is being lost. The situation is deteriorating. He is a god tier hero, his allies are recharged seeing him, but the sheer volume of the battles defeats him. His is powerful as possible, but it is not enough this time. Great storytelling.
@@Need_RnR you wanna know something even crazier? The devs said in the discord faq that they will release the older builds so we can probably play whats on that video someday =>
I've had hopes for years that i actually feared were unrealistically high...and yet you literally blew every single one of them away. Holy shit. This is phenomenal.
I love the fact that X's entrance isn't that usual teleporting but instead transforming into the ultimate armor midair while going down it's dope as hell man like damn dude hahaha
I agree! that's what hypes me at the beginning.. Back in the days, we only got X2 and X3 introstage that didn't have that 'usual teleporting' thing, BUT this ONE IS AMAZINGLY CREATIVE!
@@MegamanX25A I think JKB and his crew needed the fans's subscribes so that RUclips can pay them money inorder to make this game.. They needed money to buy expensive computers and such technologies and engineering to keep making the game better.
I'd say this is the biggest love letter to any franchise, ever. The level of detail is absolutely insane, I've never seen a fan project like it. I even think it bests sonic mania
I can’t watch anymore. This is way too much for me to handle. I’m a grown ass man now (32 years). I feel like I have taken a trip back in time. A joyful time without a care in the world. Thank you so much.
Hi from Japan. Wondering why this is not going viral over here? I'm gonna let all my friends of close ages who used to play megaman X know about this. Admire your work.
I haven't been excited for 15 seconds of an armor up since I was kid. He then flies at the screen and then bam a Nova Strike right onto the stage. This is your hero.
After replaying X1, X2, X3 (my fav), X4, X5, X6, almost X7 and X8. I dare to say this could be the best Mega Man X game ever. I can't believe a really small team is doing what an entire studio of Capcom couldn't do. SHAME ON YOU CAPCOM!!
Or you guys could just praise a fan game, without bashing the company associated with said property. Also, that's not even taking into accounts stuff over the past few years that Capcom has done stuff like Monster Hunter World, Devil May Cry 5, Resident Evil 7, The Megaman Zero Collection, the Resident Evil 2 and 3 Remakes, and they also have a Mega Man game in development. Are they a perfect company? No, but we're no longer stuck in the days of them constantly making terrible decisions.
-Sick intro with X ultimate armor montage -Actual good dialogue -Maverick hunter companions that aren't totally useless cannon fodder -An interesting new villain -And Mavericks that aren't just "virus kill kill kill" ... this is gonna be something (edit) HOW COULD I FORGET... daft punk reference... 10/10
>Mavericks that aren't just "virus kill kill kill" Hard disagree. Sure, the "motivations" of the canon games are boilerplate, but I'll take that over what looks to be some pretty cringe-inducing "nuance" and "commentary".
Wow! This is one of the most impressive fan made projects! The quality is insane and the story is engaging. This truely captures the essence of megaman X and brings it into the modern world.
@@jaackorsomething-hh6xz This whole stage reminded me of The Avengers, the villan was even a green dude with horns. If that was their intent then I think it was done really well.
Dude, this seriously has A LOT OF DETAIL, I CAN'T EVEN IMAGINE HOW MUCH EFFORT YOU PUT INTO IT. This game is far the best Megaman X I have seen, I'm longing to play it when it's ready. Hope Capcom hires you or something
To be fair, X had to experience the Sky Lagoon incident once. Pretty sure the last thing he wants is a repeat of that, so him getting this pissed is understandable.
X absorbing the energy of the ship's core at the end to protect his friends. What a hero. And what a cliffhanger. I feel that's a cool reference to X1 manga where X absorbed energy capable of destroying Japan into his buster. Just my assumption but I guess this is where you lose the Ultimate Armor somehow but later reclaim it through some awesome dialogue which shows that the alternate Ultimate Armor that got destroyed was just to get X adapted so he could materialize it at anytime via energy.
@@StevenCasteelYT Not the first time the X series has done it. X5 had you lose the Fourth Armor in Zero's Intro (you find X beaten badly), whereas Zero loses his Z-Buster if do X's Intro.
It gets stolen by strike. Has already been in different, earlier videos. The only unknows are how and when. Though based on this I guess X blacks out and Strike teleports back in to take it from his body.
How did you get MegaMan x to feel even more like MegaMan x this is honestly incredible and I cannot wait for the day I can play this everything about this is just perfect
Actually, I want X in a Botw type game with genshin impact style character switching, an over the top budget, and controls like z.o.e. it'd be a perfect fit for the franchise and bring them into the space they've wanted for so long lol a 2d platformer would be fine though. Megaman would be fallout to zelda's skyrim.
This is a hell of alot more than just the intro stage. Blew my expectations out of the water

@@avilagarcialuisangel456dije que no había ninguna necesidad de esa cinematica introductoria, todos sabiamos que el juego ya iba a ser bueno y aun asi jkb games lo hizo que eso demuestra el amor que el tiene por la saga. Basicamente estoy diciendo que con esa cinematica se saco el nepe y se lo restrego en la cara a capcom XD
That's because it actually is; there's a functional lighting system in this game. Things like charge auras, buster shots, saber slashes and dash rockets illuminate the area around them, if it happens to be dark at the moment.
4:22 "Don't worry, he's up all night to get lucky, while we go around the world." 4:29 "This prisoner is up to something...I think he is getting harder, better, faster, stronger."
This is really good. The dialogue and the whole rogue gallery thing, you're obviously trying to make each scene as engaging as possible, while keeping the old aesthetic. Very cool. Keep the quality for the rest of the game and you could have the best mega man game ever made on your hands.
@@MiuMiuMau-ne4hz I don't think it'll happen, unfortunately. This game has been produced for more than ten years already. If Capcom had to notice its existence, it would've happened already. Also, even if Capcom had seen and approved this game, I'm afraid they would want it modified their way (even if it was just some pontual modifications).
I remember looking at this project 10+ years ago and I still can't believe how far it's come. This is truly something for everyone to look forward to. It's gonna be incredible!!
This is great! I’ve never been too crazy about dialogue in megaman, but at least most of it is optional. The boss fight is very good and feels like a proper X boss, but cranked to 11. Really loved it.
The music, sprites, enemies, interaction engine, this Masterpiece it's even Better than any Megaman X made by Capcom before, my eyes cant afford this Game without having an awesome feeling of satisfaction.
You guys have really outdone yourselves with the work you've done here. The opening animation was amazing, the dialogue between X and the other characters were superbly written and X himself finally displayed real maturity and competence as a leader. Great work and this was the perfect way to ring in 2021. Thanks for that guys.
I have chills, literal CHILLS..... and this is fan game. A FREAKIN' fan game. Let that sink in for a minute to truly understand how good this is. A million superlatives are gonna be thrown JKB's way for this, and he (and his whole team) deserves every damn one of them.
I'm a big fan of the MegaMan/MegaMan X franchise as a whole. This game is definitely something worth purchasing whenever it releases. Keep it up glad to see the essence of an incredible game.
I know this won’t mean much coming from some random guy on the internet but wow. This is breathtaking, the amount of time and effort that went into this is absolutely astounding. This is on an entirely different level when it comes to fan games. And especially MMX games. This will undoubtably sit amongst the greatest fan games ever made when it is released. I know that might sound cheesy, but I feel like most people can’t comprehend just the insane amount of passion that has gone into this. Amazing work! Happy new year everyone, stay safe.
Hunters fighting alongside X, dialogues, incarcerated mavericks awaiting trial, details that bring life to the game and tell us that we are some kind of police, the games didn't make much about it.
I can’t stop replaying this video, I just felt more in love to this game, several years waiting but with all the love and effort in this game gives me more patience. Keep it up JKB team!!
I love how it looks, The originality, the epicness, the music, Everything is amazing, it gives a very good feeling, Really guys, This is a very good work done Also, Happy new year!

This is what makes his parallel with Strike so strong, X doesn't want the power but uses it for the sake of humanity and reploids alike, but even fears said power, meanwhile Strike seeks power above anything else for selfish reasons.

The zero series are also part of it i think, but still amazing game zero 1-4 and zx series are my favorite megaman games. But especially 1-4 is mostly my favorite.
You know I watch this video from time to time just for the soundtrack. What really strikes me is, as X goes through, you see more enemies, post alarm the enemies digging through the hull of the airship. It creates a nice effect of, even though X is destroying every enemy in sight, the battle feels like it is being lost. The situation is deteriorating. He is a god tier hero, his allies are recharged seeing him, but the sheer volume of the battles defeats him. His is powerful as possible, but it is not enough this time. Great storytelling.
Fully agree! For me, Sonic 3 & Knuckles has firmly held the crown for 2D storytelling with gameplay, but MMX Corrupted single-handedly dethrones it.
I cannot believe a game with this much quality even exists.
Why do I have a sinking feeling that it won't exist

@@XxInfinityxXTimer Capcom doesn't mind fan games. Hell, Street Fighter X Megaman was a fan game that they ended up officially publishing

@@TheNightOwl11683 his right though.
This could actually be the best mega man fangame ever. Like seriously. Here’s hoping
I mean let's hope so. I've literally been waiting over a decade for this game.
I disagree, I think this could be the best megaman game ever. It beats the originals.
@@rogercruz1547 I highly agree. But, it's still hard to top the first Megaman X. I wouldn't be surprised if this game did it though
Really? You noticed it just now? Dud....from the very begining that was clear.
Its not just going to be like any fan game, it's going to be a fan game that will set a whole new standard for the Mega Man X series.
This game looks so phenomenal. It's more cinematic and story rich in one stage than the Capcom ones! Please get this guy a team to work under him!
Facts I hate these companies just because they didn't do it themselves.
I love the fact that X's entrance isn't that usual teleporting but instead transforming into the ultimate armor midair while going down it's dope as hell man like damn dude hahaha
Like Iron Man
I agree! that's what hypes me at the beginning.. Back in the days, we only got X2 and X3 introstage that didn't have that 'usual teleporting' thing, BUT this ONE IS AMAZINGLY CREATIVE!
Bro best part man!!! They really need to make an animated series in anime style. It would be so epic!
*Will this game really be available? I am willing to pay to play the final version. If not, it does not make sense to be subscribed.*
@@MegamanX25A I think JKB and his crew needed the fans's subscribes so that RUclips can pay them money inorder to make this game.. They needed money to buy expensive computers and such technologies and engineering to keep making the game better.
You're gonna go down in the fanbase's history forever. This is the biggest show of love from a fan for the franchise.
that's right, JKB and the spriting ai will go down in history, as well as the music ai
I'd say this is the biggest love letter to any franchise, ever. The level of detail is absolutely insane, I've never seen a fan project like it. I even think it bests sonic mania
Yeah its gonna be up there with mm8bdm and mega man maker
@@direktexe8436 MM8BDM and Mega Maker are insane, especially mega maker. I think this game might be better than the both of them though

It’s been 2 years since this video dropped. Time flies
I remember being on the bus to school in sophomore year when this dropped originally, I'm finished with high school now lol

NICE! 😊👍
Thank You!

We need this pinned.
That intro cutscene of him flying to the ship was absolutely incredible I love it
That armor up sequence in the beginning would make Tony Stark proud
I haven't been excited for 15 seconds of an armor up since I was kid. He then flies at the screen and then bam a Nova Strike right onto the stage. This is your hero.

After replaying X1, X2, X3 (my fav), X4, X5, X6, almost X7 and X8. I dare to say this could be the best Mega Man X game ever. I can't believe a really small team is doing what an entire studio of Capcom couldn't do. SHAME ON YOU CAPCOM!!
Ah yes, JKB, dominic ninmark and the sprite AI

Nah, 32 bits is were it's at
@@sammyay-man2754 mega man x corrupted is the new mega man x9. Forget Capcom.
Or you guys could just praise a fan game, without bashing the company associated with said property. Also, that's not even taking into accounts stuff over the past few years that Capcom has done stuff like Monster Hunter World, Devil May Cry 5, Resident Evil 7, The Megaman Zero Collection, the Resident Evil 2 and 3 Remakes, and they also have a Mega Man game in development. Are they a perfect company? No, but we're no longer stuck in the days of them constantly making terrible decisions.
-Sick intro with X ultimate armor montage
-Actual good dialogue
-Maverick hunter companions that aren't totally useless cannon fodder
-An interesting new villain
-And Mavericks that aren't just "virus kill kill kill"
... this is gonna be something
(edit)
HOW COULD I FORGET... daft punk reference... 10/10
I was thinking "The maverick hunters are more helpful then those green units in fire emblem games??" 😂
And the fact Dominic Ninmark makes the OST too.
¿Do you see it Capcom?
Even a fan is doing a game who can be easily a X9, and you with your millions, you have the Megaman X franchise dead >=(
I also like how he came up with a reason to lose the Ultimate Armor.
>Mavericks that aren't just "virus kill kill kill"
Hard disagree. Sure, the "motivations" of the canon games are boilerplate, but I'll take that over what looks to be some pretty cringe-inducing "nuance" and "commentary".
It looks like Green Biker Dude has been reincarnated into Green Gunner Dude.
My eyes have been blessed.
Godspeed JKB Games
Guess he wants revenge against X for stealing his spotlight
I was so happy to see him in this game.
Still working on it.
@KamiSquad_X is he really green biker dude?
@@faisfaiz4353 no
Wow! This is one of the most impressive fan made projects! The quality is insane and the story is engaging.
This truely captures the essence of megaman X and brings it into the modern world.
X's entrance has such an Iron Man feel to it, incredibly nice touch.
he mentioned on discord that is kinna of a combination of both iron man and saint seiya
It's like when he falls from the sky, and his armour assembles onto him, in the original Avengers.
This one's more stylish though, no offense.
@Zero Bullet's that too but im on his discord and he mainly mentions on the ladder
@@jaackorsomething-hh6xz This whole stage reminded me of The Avengers, the villan was even a green dude with horns. If that was their intent then I think it was done really well.
Eeeeww don’t downgrade X like that. Stark wishes he was this badass
No wonder this game hasn’t released yet... it’s-it’s too powerful... this game, will be the game OF ALL GAMES!!!!
2D bad
Dude, even the facial expressions are so damn good, duuuuuude
9:09 i LOVE how the music gets higher pitched and more urgency right here
The longer Mega Man X Corrupted is in development, the stronger it becomes.
It is getting a lot of slow but steady upgrades just like X's power-up progression in every game!
I've never felt so much power!
I remember being a kid, searching this game in a local store on 2010 :')
be happy, your
grandchildren will play this game!
Dude, this seriously has A LOT OF DETAIL, I CAN'T EVEN IMAGINE HOW MUCH EFFORT YOU PUT INTO IT. This game is far the best Megaman X I have seen, I'm longing to play it when it's ready. Hope Capcom hires you or something
I wouldn't recommend that.
Capcom is Japanese EA.
And you can't IMAGINE Konami.
@@bluewulv most likely they will shutdown his project
@@stormbringer8154 Nah they won't shut it down. They aren't Nintendo. We'll get to play this one day.
@@metaltom2003 thank god. I really wanna play this game.
At least nearly a decade of effort.
Strike's new sprites and attacks are sick. Especially the one where he's laughing like a madman.
I love how X's immediate reaction to strike blowing out the last engine is to try and nova strike him XD
Definitely a player type of response lol
To be fair, X had to experience the Sky Lagoon incident once. Pretty sure the last thing he wants is a repeat of that, so him getting this pissed is understandable.
I never thought that I would live long enough to see the intro stage. 10/10.
Happy new year everyone!
This game has been a constant bright spot in this crap year.
Bloody agreed.
2021 just started...
This randomly poped up in my feed. Started watching. Stopped after 2 mon so I don't spoil anything when it releases. Looking forward to this so much!
X absorbing the energy of the ship's core at the end to protect his friends. What a hero. And what a cliffhanger.
I feel that's a cool reference to X1 manga where X absorbed energy capable of destroying Japan into his buster.
Just my assumption but I guess this is where you lose the Ultimate Armor somehow but later reclaim it through some awesome dialogue which shows that the alternate Ultimate Armor that got destroyed was just to get X adapted so he could materialize it at anytime via energy.
Definitely going the Metroid Prime route and stripping the upgrades. Finding them is half the fun!
@@StevenCasteelYT Not the first time the X series has done it. X5 had you lose the Fourth Armor in Zero's Intro (you find X beaten badly), whereas Zero loses his Z-Buster if do X's Intro.
It gets stolen by strike. Has already been in different, earlier videos. The only unknows are how and when. Though based on this I guess X blacks out and Strike teleports back in to take it from his body.
Strike steals the Ultimate Armor.
What i want to know is H O W

....capcom this is literally all we want.
true that.
Capcom: No, you want 3D, so we will give you 3D. Forget about gameplay.
@@wpyoga idc if it’s 3D or not, I just want it to be good.
Actually, I want X in a Botw type game with genshin impact style character switching, an over the top budget, and controls like z.o.e. it'd be a perfect fit for the franchise and bring them into the space they've wanted for so long lol a 2d platformer would be fine though. Megaman would be fallout to zelda's skyrim.
@@BMikeAD Sorry bud, but it'S not about what YOU want, it's about what WE as megaman X fanboys want and it's definitetly not something like BOTW.
This is a hell of alot more than just the intro stage. Blew my expectations out of the water
There was no need to do that introductory cinematic, none, we already knew the game is excellent and yet JKB Games did it. That gentlemen is love in its purest form towards the saga
I think if Arin sees this, he might just fucking die from sheer joy. No one loves Mega Man X more than he does.
Hablas español me podrías traducir lo que dijiste bro ?

THIS is a fan game?! It looks amazing! I love how you can choose to talk to others, who you can do it with, and how to do it.
This man made Douglas look cool, that's an accomplishment
Just realized that whenever X shoots lemons, his sprite gets lighter colors, as if being illuminated by his shots.
that idea already exist in the original X4, X5, and X6 games.
That's because it actually is; there's a functional lighting system in this game. Things like charge auras, buster shots, saber slashes and dash rockets illuminate the area around them, if it happens to be dark at the moment.
game has ray tracing
Its pretty cool tbh. His shots are actually made out of superpowered plasma and plasma can emit light.
4:22 "Don't worry, he's up all night to get lucky, while we go around the world."
4:29 "This prisoner is up to something...I think he is getting harder, better, faster, stronger."
This is really good. The dialogue and the whole rogue gallery thing, you're obviously trying to make each scene as engaging as possible, while keeping the old aesthetic. Very cool.
Keep the quality for the rest of the game and you could have the best mega man game ever made on your hands.

The tiny pause when Strike says "play" is incredibly menacing, I love it.
P-L-A-Y l. Really makes things interesting to me when someone says the letters.
I think that's Strike mocking the audience, since we're all dying to play this game already!
You captured the Megaman X essence so well that I can't believe this is a Fan made work. Keep pushing on this outstanding work.
This is going to be the BEST megaman game ever! I've been a megaman fan since 1995 and this is a dream game for sure!
Because this is how mega used to be…before they messed it up
This is one of the craziest intro stages I've ever seen for a Mega Man X game! You know what us X fans want! :D
The legendary reploid X leading the charge against the mavericks once again, hes so badass i love this
I agree! X's character in this game is a "HEROIC LEADER" he acts like OPTIMUS PRIME!
I remember looking at this project 10+ years ago and I still can't believe how far it's come. This is truly something for everyone to look forward to. It's gonna be incredible!!
Almost 15 years or he is playing us or he is some cia program shit
im getting chills. so modern and with the old school vibes. pls make this!!
This Mad Lad made a 'Burn to the ground!' reference, in the intro stage. 11/10
Oh really? Where was it I didn't notice it.
Edit: I've found it
This is going to go down in history as one of the greatest fan games ever made!
yea........... when we get to play it -_- such a wonderful game it will be when we can tho for sure
It's so good to see X as a great, caring and strong leader. Fuck, I LOVE THIS GAME
This is great! I’ve never been too crazy about dialogue in megaman, but at least most of it is optional. The boss fight is very good and feels like a proper X boss, but cranked to 11. Really loved it.
A whole diving mecha-equpping sequence!?
Boooi, you done done it. Oooowee.
We need more of that.
Saint Seiya vibes on the Ultimate Armor sequence. The amount of polish this game has is absurd. Whenever you release it, it's already my GOTY.
it will probably launch this year
to me it's easily GOAT material, seriously the attention to detail as well as overall polish for a fan game is incredible
Dude at this point I don’t even want it for free. I will give you money for this beauty whether you like it or not.
There's always an option to donate the developers. I might do that.
Absolutely yes. This effort deserves a reward..
I'd love to see Capcom break a deal here and publish this for them. I'd buy it up.
Nah man. This game needs 3D sections and a lock on mode before anyone takes it seriously. /s
@@MrBlight and we need VA's no ones ever heard of!
This is an absolute masterpiece

You guys have really outdone yourselves with the work you've done here. The opening animation was amazing, the dialogue between X and the other characters were superbly written and X himself finally displayed real maturity and competence as a leader. Great work and this was the perfect way to ring in 2021. Thanks for that guys.
And racist with the mavericks.
I have chills, literal CHILLS..... and this is fan game. A FREAKIN' fan game. Let that sink in for a minute to truly understand how good this is. A million superlatives are gonna be thrown JKB's way for this, and he (and his whole team) deserves every damn one of them.
I'm a big fan of the MegaMan/MegaMan X franchise as a whole. This game is definitely something worth purchasing whenever it releases. Keep it up glad to see the essence of an incredible game.
I know this won’t mean much coming from some random guy on the internet but wow. This is breathtaking, the amount of time and effort that went into this is absolutely astounding. This is on an entirely different level when it comes to fan games. And especially MMX games. This will undoubtably sit amongst the greatest fan games ever made when it is released. I know that might sound cheesy, but I feel like most people can’t comprehend just the insane amount of passion that has gone into this. Amazing work! Happy new year everyone, stay safe.
Something about seeing other hunters fighting alongside X is so damn cool.
Indeed even if it isn't terribly fleshed out it just gives that intro level a bit extra flair that no other MM has given us thus far.
Hunters fighting alongside X, dialogues, incarcerated mavericks awaiting trial, details that bring life to the game and tell us that we are some kind of police, the games didn't make much about it.
@@lordsakai3450 It shows that there are other capable allies to help us when needed, not just Zero, Axl and X.
