Mega Man series producer Shingo Izumi has said Capcom would be keen to revisit the Mega Man X series, in response to a question from Game Informer about the franchise's future. Speaking while promoting the upcoming Mega Man Override, Izumi described X as an "important series" within the Mega Man brand that the team would love to explore again if the opportunity arose. The comments will fuel long-standing fan hopes for a new entry in the beloved sub-series, though Izumi stopped short of confirming any concrete plans.

For now, Capcom's focus remains on Mega Man Override, due for Switch and Switch 2 in 2027, alongside celebrations planned for the Blue Bomber's 40th anniversary next year, including crossovers such as a Mega Man skin in Pragmata. Fans wanting an X fix in the meantime can revisit the series via Capcom's existing Mega Man X Legacy Collections on Switch. No new X title has been announced, and the remarks reflect general openness from Capcom rather than a firm commitment.
