The game was later re-released as part of the Mega Man X Collection, and it was released on the PlayStation Network as part of the PSOne classics in Japan on July 8, 2015. Mega Man X6 was developed and released on the original PlayStation mainly to reach out to a broader audience. Both Mega Man X5 and Mega Man X6 were released after the launch of the PlayStation 2, so after the development and release of Mega Man X6, Capcom made the transition to the PlayStation 2.
Mega Man X6, known as Rockman X6 ( ロックマンX6, Rokkuman Ekkusu Shikkusu ) in Japan, and often shortened to MMX6, or just X6, is the sixth game in the Mega Man X series and the final title in the series to be released for the Sony PlayStation.
