For those of you waiting for more details regarding Mega Man Universe, this exclusive interview with Game Informer featuring MMU producer Akiko Ito reveals a ton! As if our previous videos ( and the announcement of Gachapin ) weren’t enough, she discusses how the core game will include lots from Mega Man 2:

So, we will have some preloaded stages, and what they are going to be are all the levels from Mega Man 2. So the original classic Mega Man 2 will be faithfully replicated in the Mega Man Universe style. Users will be able to play through all of them and defeat the bosses there. As for the story, right now we haven’t worked out all the details, but some of the characters may get some sort of background to explain why they are there or what their purpose is. Some of them may not, and they will just be there for fun. We can’t reveal too much, but eventually we may have downloadable content that explains why Ryu is in the world. We hope that people will look forward to new content that will tie together the world.

Of course, there’s WAY more to be revealed, but so far, I’m excited! Are you?
