The games in the Mega Man Zero/ZX Legacy still deliver, but the bonus features are pretty standard fare.

Any one of these games are worth throwing 10 bucks at, much less all six. So long as you can deal with some antiquated visuals (even with the new look) and a bit of exploration-based frustration with the ZX games in particular, you'll have plenty of rainy days squared away with the Mega Man Zero/ZX Legacy Collection.

Mega Man has arrived to conquer the field of desktop consoles. The Zero and ZX collection is perfect for those who want to get started in the saga and for those who want to revisit this mythical character with his intricate levels and final bosses.

Another good shot for Capcom, and finally we can play the four Mega Man Zero in their best form: we have the most balanced versions ever, for at least twenty beautiful hours. A love letter to the fans and a good opportunity for the other to know a good part of videogames history. Unfortunately the greatest extra of the collection, the Z Chaser, is not good as it looks like at first and its forbidden controls remapping ruins the experience.

Although not the most visually pleasing games stretched onto modern setups, it's hard to argue with the level of quality in these six great games. With some added accessibility options, this collection is well worth replaying.

Mega Man Zero/ZX Legacy Collection is easily the best Legacy Collection to date while including the entire Zero and ZX series. While the Zero games may be a bit unfair due to the zoomed-in GBA view and unforgiving lives system, the new save-assist feature gives players the ability to play through these games at their own pace without feeling like they're given too much power. Z-Chaser is lastly a good bonus game, even if it is lacking in the level department.

Mega Man Zero / ZX Legacy Collection is another nice remaster created specifically for fans of the series and genre. The settings that make life easier for players make these projects more accessible, but still preserve the hardcore gameplay experience. If you have already finished Mega Man 11, but want more, then be sure to try this collection.

There is plenty to love about the Mega Man Zero/ZX Legacy Collection. With great new additions like Casual Mode and a Checkpoint system, the Zero franchise can be enjoyed by both new and longtime fans of the franchise. It's just a shame that improvements seen in later games weren't retroactively put into earlier games to bring them all completely up to date.

Mega Man Zero/ZX Legacy Collection is everything that you could've hoped it to be. This is ultimately six great Mega Man games presented to you with a slew of customizable features, extra content, and quality of life updates. If you're a fan of either Mega Man or sidescrolling action games in general, you owe it to yourself to give this release a go and see what all the fuss is about. These are hard and occasionally frustrating games, but they offer up some rewarding, action-heavy gameplay that even today stands among the best of its class. Don't pass this one up, it's definitely worth the punt.

Mega Man Zero/ZX Legacy collection reminds us that the series did not shine at its brightest trying to move from action to story-based fiction. The six different games are still okay, but their original mecanics could have been tweaked a little to match the new video game standards.

Compiling six solid titles together, the Mega Man Zero/ZX Legacy Collection shines a light on a series that many never got the chance to experience. These games offer a fresh take on a familiar formula and a welcome diversion from the main series.
