Mega Man: Dual Override Gets New Gameplay Trailer

gamingAug 25, 2026472,164

Mega Man: Dual Override's Gamescom trailer confirmed playable Proto Man, introduced a new Robot Master called Twinkle Girl, and attached a 2027 release window. The reveal sent creators straight to Twinkle Girl, with posts shouting "TWINKLE GIRL IS MY DAUGHTER" and multiple artworks and tributes centering on her as a standout new character. Other threads replayed the trailer’s surprises, calling out an apparent Astro Man sighting and parsing the Override system and Custom Chips as a big shift in how players will build setups. Some contributors reworked classic boss ideas into the trailer’s scenes, like a Cactus Man mockup imagining arena-saturating sand interactions for the new mechanics.

AstroMan for the THIRD TIME? I'm not complaining, I'm just asking why/how many cameos are in this.

it's weird that they named her twinkle girl instead of twinkle woman also rest in peace dolly parton

You can't make me kill Twinkle Girl.

Mega Man 11 was a better test run than people gave it credit for I'm looking forward to this!

morkitten10

oh cool they added Astro Man to Megaman 11. I love Megaman 8. That was a great game.

Hard to see in the trailer, but Twinkle Girl is DWN-089, which should basically confirm her as one of the game’s robot masters as opposed to a character like Bass. He’s SWN-001 (Special Wily Numbers). (If anyone else has the type of brain that cares about serial numbers on mega mans like me)

Third time's the charm, Astro Man

SaturnSH2x2 (all slots taken)6

now commit to the bit and put Tengu Man back in there again

DarkWingSpartan6

Calling it now: Those little chip that Mega Man equips at the beginning are a series of optional items that you can flip between (like the hover boots later in the trailer). That seems like something Capcom would do to keep things fresh for game #12. Also Twink Girl is the best and I love her.

💜what if her name was twink girl instead

This looks very cool but acting like Proto Man is being playable for the first time when he was in 9 and 10 is like when Sonic 4: Episode II acted like Tails being in it was a big deal

really love this design, as our first look at a new robot master. feels very mega man, but also feels like it isn't literally just trying to mimic existing RM designs. feels faithful but new

SHES LITERALLY SO CUTES... Astro man tho

I like the bit where she sets herself on fire. It's just a neat example of something that feels like it fits without being beholden to what was possible on the NES.

She's so cute and feels like she belongs in the classic games while still being so unique amongst the robot masters. I adore her and look forward to the rest

KILL ME, FUNNY DEER MAIDEN2

i don't care WHAT she did, mega man is WRONG for trying to fight her

Gaia_BentosZX51

And already gooners are being weird about her! Things are going great!

When I submitted the design for Cactus Man for MegaMan Dual Override, this is roughly what I had in mind. I've based the mockup on the player filling the arena with sand in this playthrough. #pixelart #ドット絵 #megaman

Megaman facing off against cactus man in a stone chamber. The room underneath their platform is filling with sand. Several robotic cacti are visible around the room

Everyone’s talking about twinkle girl but i’m honestly looking forward to meeting Plane Guy more

As an enormous fan of the classic Mega Man series for 36 years now, I can safely say that this is a Twinkle Girl stan account.

I'm sorry, you can't write TWINKLE GIRL and then set it on a gradient so light that the LE disappears

Astro Man is back in MM Dual Override? If Tengu Man is also there then it's a Mega Man & Bass reunion.

Mega Man: Dual Override looks incredible. Instead of one new concept, let’s just let the player customize their setup. That allows for SO much replayability. Also returning Robot Masters? What’s Astro Man doing there?

Funny enough, it made me think of the customizable shots in Mighty Gunvolt Burst. That kind of control in a Mega Man-style game is sick.
