Canadian Based Union Actra Toronto (the Alliance of Canadian Cinema, Television and Radio Artists) has revealed a new Mega Man Legends project on their What's Shooting list.
The possible leak was first found and shared by user MCUAvenger1992 on Reddit's r/GamingLeaksAndRumours, and can currently be found on Actra Toronto's second page. Here it states recording began on 9/14/2026 and is set to end on 12/01/2026.
At this time it is unknown what this Mega Man Legends project could be, however Capcom has expressed interest in bringing the series to modern consoles following the success of their previous Mega Man collections. At this time Legends is the only series unplayable on modern platforms, with the games latest releases being the PlayStation Classics versions, which are only available on PlayStation 3, PSP, and Vita, and the Japanese exclusive PSP ports.
Another title many fans continue to hold onto hope for is the canceled Mega Man Legends 3. As someone who was actively involved in Capcom's Dev Room during the game's development, I too would love nothing more to see this become a reality, but if it were to return, it might not release as it was originally intended. Being a finalist in the Boss Contest (though Capcom decided against my design), I was told the rights to all fan submitted content would go back to the original creators, and Capcom would be unable to use them. In other words, if Capcom wants to use the ideas fans contributed back then, they would need to require the rights from them, and with Capcom-Unity's community closing down that would be easier said than done.
Whatever the case is, seeing Mega Man Legends return in any capacity is something fans have waited many years for, but we'll have to wait and see what this new project exactly entails.
