Mega Man Star Force 3: Red Joker

TRINE is our most notable release for this week, coming out on PC at some digital outlets July 3, others, including the PlayStation Network, around July 10 (360 owners will have to wait awhile longer).

At a 200% Noise level, Mega Man can activate the ultimate Red Joker form, which has a Noise Form Big Bang attack called the Red Gaia Eraser. As Mega Man accumulates Noise, he will gradually shift in color from the standard blue to the red form similar to that of the Red Joker form, in a sort of "Color-Out" phase...
