5 Best Steam Games of October 2018
Mega Man 11
Following the trainwreck that was known as Mighty No. 9, Capcom finally decided to take matters into their own hands and develop the 11th game in the Mega Man series. Packed with tons of nostalgia value, some interesting new mechanics, and a charming 2.5D art style, Capcom proved that they still know their way around the Blue Bomber.
Mega Man 11 delves back into the series root, offering a challenging platforming adventure with plenty of action. Each stage is uniquely designed with that familiar Mega Man flair, and players have to take advantage of the Blue Bomber’s skills to avoid traps and defeat enemies.
While Mega Man has access to his trusty blaster, he can also take on the skills of any Robot Master bosses he’s beaten. This opens up an array of new skills and gives players the freedom to use Mega Man’s various mechanics as they see fit.
One new skill under his arsenal is the Double Gear system, giving Mega Man two additional abilities: the Speed Gear and Power Gear. The latter option lets him slow down time to make precise jumps or avoid incoming attacks with ease, while the Power Gear increases his attack power.
Both veterans and newcomers to the series will find something to love in Mega Man 11. If you’re still on the fence on this Steam game, make sure to check out our full review.
