A new supposed concept art matching character designer Shinsuke Komaki’s artstyle for a cancelled Mega Man Star Force 4, as well as some story details, have surfaced online. The source for the leak is an individual by the name of The Shadow, who previously leaked details of Mega Man 9 back in 2008. [Thanks, Rockman Corner!]
According to the source, Mega Man Star Force 4 was in production 10 years ago, during the height of Mega Man fatigue. Coupled with poor sales of of Star Force 3 and Operation Shooting Star, Capcom cancelled game development midway.
The character in the picture is an older, ‘more hardened’ Geo Stellar, alongside a new character named Kazuma, said to be a hacker who is Lan Hikari’s descendant. And as we can see from the picture, the two get into trouble and become outlaws.
Mega Man Star Force 4 was supposedly cancelled. You can read more insights in the source article here.
