Item Description
Mega Man 3 is the entry where the Blue Bomber's world gets bigger. Rush, Dr. Light's robot dog, makes his debut and transforms into a springboard, a submarine and a jet, opening routes Mega Man could never reach alone. Meanwhile a mysterious red robot in a yellow scarf keeps turning up, announced by a haunting whistle, to test him in combat. Proto Man's arrival gave the series its first real thread of intrigue, and fans still debate his motives three decades later.
Mega Man learns a new move here as well. The slide lets him dart under enemy fire and through low gaps, and that small change alters the feel of every stage. The eight Robot Masters are a memorable bunch: Gemini Man splits into two, Snake Man's level is built across the bodies of giant mechanical serpents, and the lineup of Needle Man, Magnet Man, Hard Man, Top Man, Spark Man and Shadow Man hands you an arsenal of weapons with real strategic value against one another. Shadow Man's Shadow Blade in particular is a favorite for good reason.
Beating all eight is not the finish line. Four stages return remixed and tougher, each guarded by Doc Robot, a shapeshifter that mimics the fighting styles of the Robot Masters from Mega Man 2, before a showdown with Proto Man and the march into Wily's fortress, where the giant Gamma robot waits. It was the biggest adventure the series had attempted at that point, and the extra stretch gives it an epic sweep the first two games lacked.
Yasuaki Fujita's soundtrack holds its own against its famous predecessor, with Spark Man, Snake Man and Shadow Man's themes among the series' most enduring earworms. Plenty of longtime fans name this their favorite entry, and it is easy to hear why. If Mega Man 2 is the series' greatest-hits record, Mega Man 3 is the one where it fills out its universe with a loyal companion, a rival and a longer road to Wily.

About the game
It's robot rebellion, and nobody's safe! Least of all, Mega Man! This time the superpowerful cyborg takes on a horde of metal maniacs who've had it with being obedient! And they use every android-annihilator ever invented to make you believe it! Mega Man goes berserk, blasting through a galaxy of mining stations in search of energy crystals. But it takes more than guts to battle the phenomenal robot masters who control these worlds. It's a wrenching job, the worst - and the best - that Mega Man's faced so far!
