Maverick Hunting a Quarter Century: The 25th Anniversary of Mega Man X

Maverick Hunting a Quarter Century: The 25th Anniversary of Mega Man X

Mega Man has been one of video game's most treasured franchises upon it's release. Fans and critics couldn't get enough of the blue bomber fighting off the evil Dr. Wily and his creations. However, Mega Man is more than just the original incarnation. Perhaps Capcom saw something there but as the decades gone by, new franchises were added to the Mega Man universe with some being sequels to the original while others being set in a different universe. In 1993, Capcom unleashed the first with the release of Mega Man X. Set 100 years after the original, it tells the story of a new, advanced, and powerful Mega Man named Mega Man X or X for short who fought alongside a group known as Maverick Hunters who sought to protect the world from evil robots or reploids who had gone maverick. Since then, Mega Man X has seen nine releases in it's history and despite the franchise being dormant for nearly half it's history, it's still a classic franchise of it own. Appropriate it's a sequel because like I did last year with Mega Man, I'll take a look at Mega Man X. This article contains spoilers so don't read if you don't want to be spoiled.

Back in 1987, a new video game character burst onto the scene in Mega Man. After having humble beginnings, the Blue Bomber has since become one of the most popular and enduring characters in video game history with multiple sequels and many spin offs that have since followed. With the 30th Anniversary fast approaching, what better way to celebrate such an incredible milestone than to look back at every main Mega Man game from 1 through 10 and everything about them.
