Capcom explains why Mega Man: Dual Override isn’t called Mega Man 12
Capcom producers Shingo Izumi and Hiroyuki Minamitani, along with director Shinya Ikuta, explained that Mega Man: Dual Override is not numbered to avoid intimidating new players. They learned after Mega Man 11's release that the high number could deter potential newcomers. The game is set to release in 2027 for Nintendo Switch.
