Here’s what Mighty No. 9 Looks Like Today

Eight months after the $3.8 million Kickstarter campaign, Mega Man-inspired platformer, Mighty No. 9, has a fresh gameplay trailer to show off what the developers at Comcept have been working on over the past few months. The gameplay trailer shows off footage from two of the game’s levels, as well as a first glimpse of a pair of bosses that players will encounter within Mighty No. 9.

Founded by Mega Man designer, Keiji Inafune, Comcept is a Japanese independent game development studio based out of Tokyo and Osaka. On August 31st of last year, Comcept launched Mighty No.9 onto Kickstarter. In just two days the $900,000 was surpassed. The funding campaign on Kickstarter combined with a secondary campaign (for backers wishing to utilize PayPal) raised over $4,000,000 for the development of Mighty No. 9. The influx of financial support guarantees the game’s release on the Wii U, Playstation 3, Xbox 360, PlayStation Vita, 3DS, PlayStation 4, Mac, Linux, and Xbox One, alongside the originally planned PC release.

Mighty No. 9 has an estimated release date of Spring 2015.
