Mega Man is back in Street Fighter X Tekken, brings Pac-Man with him
Posted on January 26, 2012 by OG

In a definite W-T-F move, two new characters have been announced by Capcom for the upcoming Street Fighter X Tekken:  Mega Man and Pac-Man.  After being ignored by Capcom in Marvel vs. Capcom 3, and being abused by Capcom last year, Mega Man has returned.  Mega Man fans, however, may feel a bit of a smack across the face when they see WHICH Mega Man it is.  No, we don’t have the cutesy Mega Man that we’ve been accustomed to since…FOREVER, instead it’s the guy who was on the U.S. cover of Mega Man 1.  Oh yeah, that guy.

Then comes Pac-Man who is no stranger to any gamer.  Pac-Man appears to be controlling a Mokujin-type robot (Mokujin was a character in Tekken 3 that was a combat dummy come to life and able to do everyone’s moves) instead of just bouncing around like the yellow ball that he is.  Both Mega Man and Pac-Man join Cole from Infamous and Toro/Kuro (Sony Japanese mascots) to be Sony exclusive characters.  You’ll only be able to play these five characters on the PS3 or PS Vita version.  So you 360 owners, be jealous…or not cause these characters are a little awkward.
