Overview
- Capcom released a gameplay trailer on Tuesday, August 25, 2026, that confirms Proto Man as a second playable character and introduces new Robot Master Twinkle Girl.
- The Override system lets characters temporarily unleash greater power but triggers a short period of reduced performance when it ends, creating a clear risk‑and‑reward timing mechanic.
- A Custom Chip system lets players equip small ability modules such as rapid‑fire, a protective shield bubble, and hover so they can tailor Mega Man or Proto Man to distinct playstyles.
- Capcom says Dual Override will launch across current and last‑generation consoles plus Switch/Switch 2 and PC via Steam and Epic in 2027, though no exact release date or full Robot Master roster has been announced.
- Capcom will add Mega Man and Roll skins to Pragmata in 2026 and the trailer briefly teases a character resembling Astro Man, which fans see as a possible nod to returning classic bosses to watch for.
