Mega Man X

Mega Man X: Command Mission joins the PlayStation Plus Classics Catalog in September 2026, and a threezero MDLX X Force Armor figure is available for pre-order. No new mainline Mega Man X game has been announced.

Synthesized from 2 Yomimono stories · updated 2h ago

The two stories about Mega Man X in early September 2026 cover separate fronts: legacy game availability and merchandise. Sony announced during its State of Play broadcast on September 3, 2026, that Mega Man X: Command Mission would join the PlayStation Plus Classics Catalog, a service for Premium plan members. The turn-based RPG spin-off arrives in September, alongside two other Classics additions scheduled within 2026: Dino Crisis 2 and the original Ratchet & Clank. Sony did not give specific release dates for the latter two titles.

On the merchandise side, threezero's MDLX line added the X Force Armor from the Rockman X series, a painted action figure about 12.3 centimeters tall with roughly 34 points of articulation. The figure includes interchangeable parts compatible with the earlier MDLX X, plus new sculpted pieces such as an upgraded X Buster and a Stock Charge Shot effect. Pre-orders opened at Rakuten Books at 10,910 yen including tax.

Neither story addresses a new mainline Mega Man X game. The Command Mission addition reflects ongoing expansion of the Classics Catalog with fan-requested legacy titles, while the figure line continues to support the Rockman X property through collectibles. The two items are separate developments in the same franchise, tied by their shared source material rather than any connected event.

Mega Man X: Command Mission, Dino Crisis 2, Ratchet & Clank Join PS Plus Classics

During the State of Play broadcast on September 3, 2026, Sony Interactive Entertainment announced three titles for the PlayStation Plus Classics Catalog, a service for Premium plan members. Mega Man X: Command Mission arrives in September, while Dino Crisis 2 and the original Ratchet & Clank are scheduled to join within 2026.
