Overview and Gameplay
King attacks Dr. Light’s lab and the Robot Museum, forcing two rival heroes into the same late-era Super Famicom mission. Rockman & Forte is a classic-series Mega Man platform shooter built around choosing either Rockman or Forte before the adventure begins.
Players clear side-scrolling stages, defeat robot masters, earn special weapons, collect bolts for shop items, and hunt 100 character CDs. Routes open gradually after the intro stage, and each hero changes how stages are approached.
