Mighty Gunvolt Burst (3DS CIA)

by Mad Loader · January 24, 2018

In the vacuum left behind by the absence of Capcom’s popular Mega Man series, two major alternatives have sprouted up in an effort to take the top spot as the definitive run ‘n’ gun action platformer. These projects created in parallel have been headed by various staff that had a hand in the making of Mega Man titles. Azure Striker Gunvolt was headed by Inti Creates, and took the core idea of the Mega Man games in an interesting and unique direction, while Mighty No. 9 was a more traditional game made by Comcept a studio led by Keiji Inafune, Mega Man’s creator; the latter failed to impress critically or commercially after a sloppily handled development cycle. These two studios have joined forces once again to create a sequel to a collaboration project (Mighty Gunvolt) in which the protagonists of both games got a headlining role. The question then remains: does Mighty Gunvolt Burst live up to the legacy that has preceded it?The game opens up with a simple and marginally different story depending on whether you choose Beck or Gunvolt when starting a new save file. In the case of Beck, he finds himself trapped in a VR simulation chamber in which he will have to face all of the Robot Masters that he defeated once before in Mighty No. 9. Mighty Gunvolt Burst In the case of Gunvolt, he finds himself transported into a mysterious place in which his septimal powers are disabled and he must compete in a robot fighting tournament. Either way, there’s plenty of fanservice here as familiar faces from both series periodically pop up, but the story obviously isn’t the main focus of this title. The gameplay is what will grab the attention of most, as it feels more or less what we expect Mega Man 11 would play like if such a game were made in the same retro style as Mega Man 9 and 10. There are eight Robot Masters to choose from all recycled from Mighty No. 9 and you can choose to tackle them in any order you choose, bearing in mind that each of them has an elemental weakness to another. The controls are as tight as would be expected from a game of this ilk, as you run ‘n’ gun your way through unique and difficult stages, racking up a high score.
