Capcom and Red Bull announced today that they are teaming up to have Mega Man promote the upcoming Red Bull Crashed Ice skating sports event that will be held for the first time in Japan in Yokohama this year.
A special site has been created for the collaboration, with a minigame playable via web browser on smartphones or PC here. In it, you play as Mega Man ice skating against Mega Man 11’s Tundra Man in a race to the goal. E-Tanks won’t save you here, as touching anything is a one-hit kill in this race. Instead, a new R-Tank (Red Bull) will transform Mega Man’s look and literally give him wings that speed him up and give unlimited strength to keep dashing.
By beating Tundra Man, you unlock a second Extreme difficulty against Air Man.
By playing the minigame and tweeting out your time, you can enter a lucky draw for a six-pack of Red Bull, a clear folder with Mega Man’s new design, and maybe even a copy of Mega Man 11 for PlayStation 4.
Finally, Mega Man 11 will be featured as part of a tournament at the Red Bull Monday Night Streaks event at Red Bull Gaming Sphere Tokyo.
Mega Man 11 is available on the Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. A demo is available on the Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.
