The trailer reveals that the first collection of the two will feature Mega Man X titles 1-4 while the second of the two in the collection will contain titles 5-8. Each game will have enhanced visuals, as well as an option for a high-resolution filter. The games will also feature a museum of art, music, and videos which will overall showcase some of the titles finest media pieces from throughout the years. Both collections will also feature a new X Challenge mode, where players will face off against two bosses at once.
