Capcom has decided to officially jump in to the trend of turning Mega Man characters into NFTs- basing them off the Mega Man X DiVE game.
The project is in collaboration with gumi- with traditional Mega Man sprite art-styled renditions of the popular gaming icon turned into NFTs.
It’s set to release in phases, but Capcom says each sprite will set you back about 100 USD a pop for a collectible they’ve also confirmed will have no functionality in the upcoming Offline version of Mega Man X DiVE.
Due to the tech-nature of the Mega Man setting, this is actually the second Mega Man-adjacent attempt to turn the blue bomber into an NFT- former Mega Man series producer Keiji Inafune had previously tried to kickstart his own collection of tokens mimicking the art style of Mega Man X.
Needless to say, the project was met with a lot of backlash, despite launching at the height of the industry’s delusion that Web 3.0 would be the next step of gaming.
While many consider the NFT gold rush to be largely over, some companies have insisted that there’s some future for the technology- such as former Square Enix President Yosuke Matsuda having insisted that the desire to play games for NFTs would be more valuable than their desire to play for fun.
