All
this was because of fans who donated their money to support this
project. For many fans it was because of Keiji Inafune who was one of
the creators of the Megaman or Rockman series and they see "Mighty No.
9" as the spiritual successor to the Megaman because of the design of
the character Beck and the side-scrolling action gameplay.
The story of "Mighty No. 9" is about Beck the ninth creation in a line of combat robots called the Mighty Number. After a strange computer virus infects the other robots of the Mighty Numbers as well as machines around the world, Beck must step up to the challenge. He must defeat the rouge robots and discover who caused these events and save the world.
"Mighty No.9" is a game development by Comcept known for such titles as "Soul Sacrifice", "Soul Sacrifice Delta" and "Yaiba: Ninja Gaiden Z" and Inti Creates best known for the Mega Man Zero series and Mega Man ZX series.
The expected date of release for the "Mighty No.9" is Spring 2015.
