“Even after 2 decades, the core gameplay loop is still very fun. I used to play MMBN 3 years ago on the GBA but never got beyond 2-3 bosses, so it's nice to have finally completed the games now in two neat collections.…”

“Really big fan of the Megaman Battle Network games, here! (Especially Battle Chip Challenge and Network Transmission, which have, unfortunately, not been remastered nor added to these collections.) I was glad to finally…”
“Forgot to make a review back in 2023. Battle network vol 1 is worth buying just for BN 3 blue and white alone. BN 1 is rough and 2 while being better than the first game I just find it to be very annoying, it was a step…”

“The Battle Network series was my introduction into the franchise and remains my favorite rendition of Megaman. Their gameplay is wholly unique as an action deckbuilder jrpg and their story is amazing. While the first…”

“These Mega Man collections just keep getting better. All 6 games are native ports which means they have fixed a lot of game breaking chip combos and glitches (not to mention the never ending panic music in the BN6 post…”
“Netcode sucks, wish it was rollback netcode to be on par with Tango. Also hoped that rank was more competitively structured since you can cheat ratio, but it's irrelevant since netcode blows. Outside of that, it's a…”
“An amazing collection of the first 3 battle network games, The collection restores also trading and online battles. The game is quite a unique RPG where battles take place on a grid, and you load battle chips to use…”

“Mega Man Battle Network is a series I grew up with, and this collection is a wonderful way to revisit it — or discover it for the first time. The real-time deck-building combat still holds up remarkably well, where…”

“This is....a really nice collection, hearing MegaMan.exe in the main menu is really charming (and he says special dialogs during certains days too) all the games are faithful to their original counterparts with some bugs fixes and the downloadable cards that were only available…”
— a player, Steam review · 116 hrs played“It's very fun. I think my only complaint is that there seems to be a bit of input latency. This will likely not matter for any of the base game bosses and challenges, but it will probably be an issue for most in the post game sections.”
— a player, Steam review · 45 hrs played“This kept me sane on the Deck during some very long commutes for quite a while. Blast from the past from the GBA-era and definitely recommend supporting Capcom for re-releasing these bangers, warts and all. You'll probably dislike that you encounter a battle every 3 steps, but…”
