Capcom has confirmed a patch for Mega Man Star Force: Legacy Collection is landing on June 15, and if you're deep into the online battle modes, this one isn't optional.
The official Mega Man social media account announced the update earlier this week, flagging two main changes: bug fixes and general functionality improvements. The more specific addition is the ability to swap the assignment of the Confirm and Cancel buttons on the controller, a small quality-of-life tweak that some players have been wanting since the collection launched on Switch back in March.

What's actually changing on June 15
Here's the thing: the button remapping addition is the kind of fix that sounds minor until you've been playing for 20 hours with an input layout that doesn't match your muscle memory. The collection spans seven titles across the Star Force series, and each one has you navigating menus and battles constantly. Being able to flip Confirm and Cancel to match your preference removes a persistent friction point.
The patch also carries a harder requirement. Once it goes live, the update will be mandatory to access the game's online features and modes. That means if you skip it, you're locked out of online virus-busting battles entirely. You'll want to grab this one as soon as it drops.
The full lineup this collection covers
For anyone who picked up the collection recently or is still on the fence, the package includes all seven games from the original DS run:
- Mega Man Star Force Leo
- Mega Man Star Force Dragon
- Mega Man Star Force Pegasus
- Mega Man Star Force 2 ZerkerxNinja
- Mega Man Star Force 2 ZerkerxSamurai
- Mega Man Star Force 3 Black Ace
- Mega Man Star Force 3 Red Joker
That's the complete trilogy with all version variants intact, which is a solid reason the collection has found an audience among fans of adventure games and action RPGs who missed these the first time around on DS.
Before vs. after: what the patch addresses
Pre-patch, the collection launched in March with quality-of-life features and an online battle mode already built in, but button assignment was fixed with no remapping option. The June 15 update closes that gap and addresses undisclosed bugs that have presumably been reported since launch.
Post-patch, the controller layout becomes flexible for the first time, and whatever bugs have been affecting the experience get cleared out. The key here is that Capcom is actively maintaining the collection rather than shipping it and moving on, which bodes well for anyone planning long-term playthroughs across all seven titles.
If you're looking for help navigating the collection's systems, the Megaman: Dual Override guides are worth bookmarking alongside any Star Force resources you're building out. And if you want a broader look at what Megaman: Dual Override brings to the franchise, that page has you covered.
The June 15 patch should roll out automatically for most players. Keep an eye on your Switch update notifications and make sure you're connected before jumping into any online sessions that day.
