Canon
Canon refers to the body of works taking place in a fictional world that are widely considered to be official or authoritative.[1] The Mega Man franchise has its own canon body of works that are recognized by its creators, such as Capcom. This page will contain sources and explanations as to what works are canon to each era, and which are not.
Classic era
X era
Zero era
ZX era
Legends era
Battle Network era
Star Force era
Crossovers
Crossover games are generally considered non-canon. However, there are some exceptions.
Other media
Most works referred to as "other media" on the Mega Man Wiki are not considered part of the main canon. Some works, such as Captain N: The Game Master or Mega Man: Fully Charged, have their own independent worlds that clearly diverge from the video games. Other works that adapt material from the video games, such as the 1994 Mega Man series, the anime Mega Man NT Warrior, or the Rockman X manga by Yoshihiro Iwamoto, are also treated as their own self-contained worlds despite directly drawing on material from the video games.
