The first Mega Man Battle Network was released for the Game Boy Advance in 2001. In the games, the battle system is a mix of action-RPG and card battles. Battle screens have a 6×3 grid, and each character starts out controlling half of the playing field. Nevertheless, this can be changed with Battle Chips.
In addition, the collection will include lots of new features. To enhance the visuals, high-resolution filters are included in the collection. Players can also use the original visuals if they want.
Additionally, there’s an art gallery. Players can view official artwork from the Mega Man games’ original releases, as well as early concept art, character sketches, and other rare materials, in this gallery. Furthermore, there is a “Mystery Data” section containing exclusive illustrations from events and licensed goods.
Players can also listen to the music from the ten Battle Network games through the built-in music player. They can play their favorite songs repetitively or have the music on in the background while they browse through the gallery.
