Capcom is celebrating the 20th anniversary of the Mega Man Star Force series by releasing the Mega Man Star Force Legacy Collection in 2026. This collection compiles all seven mainline Star Force games originally launched on the Nintendo DS between 2006 and 2009. It follows the story of Geo Stelar and his alien partner Omega-Xis as they battle threats beyond the stars in action RPG gameplay that builds on the Mega Man Battle Network series foundation.

Mega Man Star Force is a subseries of the Mega Man franchise, released originally on the Nintendo DS between 2006-2009. The gameplay mixes action RPG mechanics with a card-based combat system, and has three core entries, each of which had multiple “versions” (like Pegasus / Leo / Dragon for the first game) to encourage trading / version-specific bonuses.

Putting all these versions into one modern bundle helps preserve what was somewhat fractured by being on DS, makes it easier for newer audiences or those who missed the originals to try them, and updates things like visuals, and online connectivity. It also aligns with Capcom’s recent pattern of making “Legacy Collections” for older Mega Man subseries.

The Legacy Collection includes these seven games:

  • Mega Man Star Force Pegasus
  • Mega Man Star Force Leo
  • Mega Man Star Force Dragon
  • Mega Man Star Force 2 Zerker x Ninja
  • Mega Man Star Force 2 Zerker x Saurian
  • Mega Man Star Force 3 Black Ace
  • Mega Man Star Force 3 Red Joker

While preserving the original gameplay, the collection will present a combined dual-screen display suitable for modern TVs, replicating the Nintendo DS experience on a single screen. It also features an "enhanced experience" with online functionality that allows players to trade cards and battle each other. These online features bring a new layer of interactivity to the games for fans old and new.

The Mega Man Star Force Legacy Collection launches across multiple platforms in 2026, broadening access beyond the original Nintendo DS exclusivity. Target systems include Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 & 5, Xbox One & Series X, and PC (via Steam).

Regional availability spans global markets, with no noted restrictions. Physical and digital editions appear likely, based on Capcom's patterns with prior legacy collections. Pricing details have not surfaced yet; monitor this page for updates on costs, exact release date, and pre-order options.
