Re-orchestrating in rich FM the 8-bit themes of the first three Mega Man games, the game lets you rediscover cult melodies in a warmer light. From the legendary Mega Man 2 theme to the punchiest refrains, every track gains in depth. This generous sonic reworking delights nostalgics and newcomers alike.
Mega Man The Wily Wars PAL is the European edition of Capcom's game bundling remastered Mega Man 1, 2 and 3 on Megadrive. Exceptional collector value: the game never officially released in box in the US (only via Sega Channel).
Is Mega Man - The Wily Wars still worth playing in 2026?
