It’s like we’re paying for life support coverage

sigh Let’s skip the piss party this time and jump right to the nitty gritty.

A listing on Japanese online shop Rakuten has appeared forRockman X Sound Box, set to arrive on July 21, 2025. The 12-disc set is likely a soundtrack collection that spans the entire breadth of theMega Man Xseries.

You may remember that Capcom released a similar collection for the Classic series calledRockcanlast year. It was 10 discs large, each disc containing the soundtrack from one of the ten main numbered entries. IfSound Boxlikewise devotes a single CD for each of the eight mainXtitles, that still leaves four discs remaining. Perhaps we’ll even get music from the twoXtremeGame Boy Color games,Command Mission, andMaverick Hunter X, which would make this a much more comprehensive product thanRockcanwas.

Sound Boxis currently priced at ¥12,600 (~$128), a surprisingly low figure in relation toRockcan‘s beefy ¥14,700 (~$150) tag. I was somehow able to justify the latter’s purchase for myself, even though I know some of you were less enthused. Perhaps the cost will be a lot easier to swallow this time around.
