Years after the initial launch, Mega Man X Legacy Collection 2 is getting a proper physical release on Nintendo Switch.
You may remember that Mega Man X Legacy Collection 1 + 2 was previously sold at retail. However, while the first part of the package was on the cartridge, the latter half was not. Mega Man X Legacy Collection 2 was only offered as a download code.
Limited Run Games is now preparing a proper Mega Man X Legacy Collection 2 physical release. There’ll be a standard edition, double pack with Mega Man X Legacy Collection, and a Maverick Hunter Edition (pictured above) with extra goodies.
Below is an overview of both collections:
